DBSA support groups provide the kind of caring and assistance that is important to lasting recovery.
DBSA support group participants say that their DBSA groups:
+ Provide a safe and welcoming forum for mutual acceptance, understanding, and self-discovery.
+ Give them the opportunity to reach out to others and benefit from the experience of those
who have "been there".
+ Motivate them to follow their treatment plans
+ Help them understand that mood disorders do not define who they are
+ Help them rediscover strengths and humor they may have thought they had lost.
