Mental Health Support

I attend a weekly group for people with mental health problems , personality disorders and learning difficulties. Its hard for these groups of individuals to fit in with societal norms so having a safe space around others is invaluable.

Ive been attending for about a year now and its opened my eyes to the amount of people who suffer on a daily basis. I feel i benefit from attending , its helped with my confidence and self esteem.

That's great to hear .
Everyone suffers a bit from mental health .
I have a fierce social esteem problems being in groups . I'm quite by nature or shy and when I try to force myself in social events to do the opposite I end up getting wired in myself .
Is there a bit of depression there . I don't know .
If that helps you keep going there .
That's the whole point of life having connections, otherwise you craic up
