A question to admins - support group?

[Bert]

Hey, I know that this is an anonymous forum. But I'm searching for a support-group of sorts. Like a- you log in for 30-60mins go around the (digital) room and share in a more real-time connected manner. I know that for some with C-PTSD this could be quite frightening, but I wholeheartedly believe that with each others encouragement something like this could be a really good thing. I dunno, just a thought. Or perhaps some of you may know of places where I can go to partake in something like this?

Hi Bert, not an Admin, just a human blob here.

We actually do have two groups that meet digitally. I think the plan was to keep the groups how they are, but maybe in the future a third group might be added. I know there was discussion of starting a group for those with more "difficult timezones". Things have been wild lately, so I wouldn't be surprised if any plans are on hold for the moment.

I hope you find what you need in any case. You are right, connection is important.

Hello, Bert. I'm not an admin either. But above is a link to the thread about the existing Zoom groups and that is probably the best place for you to add a post to register your interest if another is set up.

You are right that such a group can be amazingly helpful and supportive. I don't know of anywhere else that does that sort of thing, although it may be possible to access therapist-led groups online. I guess that would be something one would have to pay for

Hi Bert.
Again not an admin, just a human blob.
I have spent a while now looking for CPTSD support groups with little success I'm afraid.
I also think it would be very beneficial for a lot of people and have always been surprised there is nothing readily available already.
If you find something I would be interested in getting involved. If I find something I will post details on this forum for you.
Good luck and stay strong.

Hi Fozzie

I just saw your post and hadn't realised that there are Zoom support groups in the forum - if you look at NarcKiddo's post above yours, there's a link to the Zoom groups thread - I've just posted there myself to ask who's co-ordinating these now. Maybe you could add your interest there, or I can let you know when I've had a response?

Good luck, hope you find what you need.
