Welcome
to
the Temecula Depression and Bipolar Support Alliance (DBSA)!
We are so glad that you have taken that important first step of
reaching out for support from a group of people who can empathies with
what you are going through. We welcome those with mood
disorders, those who believe they may have a mood disorder, as well as
friends and family members.
Our support group members struggle with many types of mood disorders at
varying levels of severity. Many of us also deal with other
diagnoses, including obsessive-compulsive disorder, generalized anxiety
disorder, social phobia, post traumatic stress disorder,
schizophrenia, and addictions to food, alcohol, drugs, gambling, and
spending. We’ve been through a great deal, and we
join
together weekly to put our collective knowledge to use in supporting
and encouraging one another.
Our two main
resources are
the literature that the DBSA national
organization provides us and the shared experience of our members. It
is a share and care, peer to peer group. Every member who wants to
share their feelings will get a chance to do so. However, no one has to
share. It is fine to listen and observe the meeting.
Our support group meetings follow a format provided by the national
DBSA. We provide guidelines at the beginning of each meeting
and adhere to them in order to provide a safe and friendly
environment. Our most important principle is
confidentiality. What is said in the meeting stays in the
meeting.
Our meetings cover a number of topics ranging from medications, side
effects, struggles with family, effective treatments, counseling,
alternative therapies, management of mania or depressive symptoms and
many more.
You can also find many useful resources at the Depression and Bipolar
Support Alliance website at www.dbsalliance.org
