More About Women Support Groups

Women experience unique physical and mental challenges. Though not all women want or need support beyond that offered by family and friends, it may be helpful to turn to people outside your immediate circle. Support groups may be formed by any interested party and differ from formal therapy sessions with a medical professional. In some cases, support groups may be formed by nonprofit organizations, advocacy organizations, mental health clinics or other organizations. A support group can help you make helpful connections with others facing similar challenges. http://www.mayoclinic.org/healthy-lifestyle/stress-management/in-depth/support-groups/art-20044655
