Minneapolis Icarus Peer-Support & Discussion Group
Submitted by sealux on Wed, 07/11/2007 - 4:51pm
This is a meeting for people dealing with their own mental health issues, whether that's bipolar disorder, depression, schizophrenia, anxiety, undiagnosed angst (!), etc. We meet for about two hours, and it's somewhere between a support group and a discussion group. We're laid back, but everything that's said in the group is confidential. It's a really warm, nice place to share and learn from others about how to negotiate being labelled "mad" in a crazy world, or get info on meds, or unload about what's going on in your life. Or dozens of other things. We're open to lots of different perspectives, including people who don't take meds and people who do. It's a diverse group!
Our discussion group meets every other Wednesday evening at 7:00 pm at Arise! Bookstore located at 2441 Lyndale Avenue South in the Wedge area of uptown Minneapolis. Email icarusmpls AT gmail DOT com for more information.
