In Person Depression and Anxiety Support Group

We have a meeting every second Sunday night for people looking to overcome anxiety and depression. This is a very informal meeting where we all share what we are going through and offer ideas and insights that may help each other out.

The typical structure of the meeting is:

1. Quick run through of meeting rules and guidelines.
2. Quick one word check in on how you are feeling that day.
3. Separate into two smaller groups where we can host small discussions, guided by a facilitator, where can share in more depth what is happening in our lives and offer ideas and feedback to each other, if the individual is open to it.
4. Ends with a one word check out on how you are feeling at the end of the meeting and we all share one thing we are grateful for in our lives.

At 7:30pm we typically take a 10-15 minute break.

Feel free to come out and join in the conversation or just sit back and listen to what others have to say. (You are also welcome to come in support of a loved one or friend.) No one is expected to do anything that makes them feel uncomfortable. The atmosphere is quite laid back; there is no pressure. We simply talk about what is going on in our lives.

The meeting lasts about 2 hours, so feel free to stay the whole time or leave when you need to.

If you are unsure about what to expect regarding these meetings, feel free to contact David or Adam if you have any questions. You can also check out group reviews. We look forward to meeting you or seeing you again in the near future.

Please note: The doors open after 6:20.

NOTE: If you feel like you have the "solution" to anxiety and depression and your sole purpose in coming is to tell others what they should do, then this is probably not the meet up for you. We like to believe that everyone is different in terms of how they experience anxiety and depression and each person is ultimately responsible in finding their own way to learn to live with, cope, and hopefully recover. We also advocate reaching out for professional help.

Lastly, given the nature of our group, we do not use the payment option through MeetUp. Instead, we will sign you in and accept payment upon entry at the meeting.
