Do you all attend support groups?

Hi there, Yes, the support groups at NOCD have been integral to my personal recovery journey. Many support groups are tailored to different subtypes, which help people feel comfortable exploring topics they might be frightened to discuss openly. You will have so much community support, and may even gain friends along the way. They help keep you motivated and feel less alone, with many helpful tips. Honestly, for me, they were just as important to attend as my individual therapy sessions. I learned precious information there and was able to practice skill-building in a group setting. Try them out! I highly recommend any of Tia Wilson or Jenna Overbough's groups too :)

Attending support groups has been one of the best things for recovery in my experience. Meeting people who struggle with the same thing you have and truly bring able to understand each other really helps to feel less alone and more connected. Usually there’s someone who runs the group and will allow a space for people to share how they have been doing. Others can chime in with support or advice, sometimes the meetings can be about a specific topic. Super helpful!
