    Question Yorkshire or North - Support/Social groups?

    Hello everyone

    I am fairly new to NMP and just wondered if there are any support groups or meetings in the Yorkshire area? I suffer from general anxiety and depression and feel sure I would find a group where I could meet others in the same boat mutually beneficial.

    I keep thinking that there must be things going on around here with big cities like Leeds, Bradford, York etc not too far from me. Though I am in a reasonable situation in many ways with a good family life, I do feel at times like I am the only one in the world with anx/dep issues (even though I know how common it is!) and feel that just being part of a group of people locally where it doesn't matter if I feel anxious or down a bit, where people understand these issues and our coping techniques, strategies etc are shared in a supportive environment would probably do my confidence a lot of good, and I would hopefully be of help to others in the process.

    I already feel better from the supportive people I have encountered through NMP forums, chat etc and feel that joining a group would be another step towards recovery.

    If there is nothing locally, I would be interested in anything that is going on in the North generally as I am happy to travel if it is practical.
