[QUOTE="tinamarie1, post: 647028, member: 255"] I have hoped over the years for a support group locally where parents or loved ones could meet face and give encouragement or support to those who are living with adolescents with mental conditions. I am not sure exactly where to start with this. I don't have any kind of counseling back ground, just a few psychology college classes. And I would never imply to offer any kind of professional advice. Just parents/caregivers/loved ones listening and supporting each other who have been or who have a loved one who has mental conditions (am I wording that right? for political correctness?). My son has depression and anxiety, adhd, suicidal ideations, drug addiction issues as well. He is 17 now and has been hospitalized a few times. My daughter who is 21 also has been hospitalized for depression/ suicidal ideation. I have a few friends who have expressed the desire for a support group for parents. I have directed them here. But they really want an in-person kind of meeting place. Do you all have any suggestions? [/QUOTE]
