The Family Compass© Faith-Based Chat Room: Support for Families Facing Mental Health Challenges

This is the public chat space for members of our support group, The Family Compass©: Support for Families Facing Mental Health Challenges. In the strength of faith, we will get through this journey well and strong. This space is a warm, welcoming online support community for family members who love and care for someone experiencing mental health challenges or illness. When someone we love is struggling, we may carry worry, uncertainty, heartache, and questions we don't always know how to share. We want to be there for them, yet we, too, need understanding, encouragement, and a place to rest. You can love someone deeply without carrying everything alone. You can offer care without losing yourself. And you deserve tenderness and support, too. Together, we create a compassionate space to share our stories, feel heard without judgment, and draw wisdom from others who understand the joys and challenges of caregiving. Through shared experiences, helpful resources, practical tools for resilience and healthy boundaries, and gentle reflections of faith, we seek to restore balance and find renewed strength for the journey ahead. © You are not alone. Your well-being matters. Created and facilitated by Madonna A., Rev., Chaplain, M.Div., CSD, CADC, CPSS

Surviving Quietly Together: A Chatroom Experience

This chatroom is a place to either sit quietly, vent about whatever has happened throughout the week, or to share some awesome coping skills with each other! No participation is necessary, however, I do ask that everyone respects autonomy (their own and others') and resemble themselves in the most organic way possible. This chatroom is free, and is not on a scheduled basis. You can come whenever you feel like sharing! I will be checking in on the chatroom to moderate boundaries daily. If I happen to have an active chatter in the room while I'm there, please don't hesitate to say something! Drop a joke, a stressor, a recommendation, ANYTHING (as long as it respects us all). We are all here to be as vulnerable as we allow ourselves to be. <3

GenX is a SuperPower

Welcome to GenX is a SuperPower! We grew up without the internet, survived questionable fashion choices, and somehow became the generation trying to figure out what comes next. This is a place for GenX folks to talk about life as we know it now. Getting older, changing careers, relationships, burnout, mental health, recovery, or just realizing life doesn't look quite like we expected. I'm Noni, a GenXer myself and a peer support specialist. I'm not here to tell anybody how to live their life. I believe we've all been through enough to have something worth sharing. No lectures. No pressure to have it all figured out. Just honest conversations, different perspectives, and maybe a little GenX humor along the way. What's on your mind?

Addictions Support Chat

This is not a live chat. This chat was created for those who attend groups who need a little support in between meetings. It doesn't replace therapy or gives advice. This group chat combines all addictions, substance use disorder, food, sugar, love, romance, sex addictions. I combined three of my chats because the root is addiction. Welcome!

CALM: Calming Anxiety, Lightening Mood: Faith-Based Care and Support in Community

Welcome to the public chat room for the support group CALM: Calming Anxiety, Lightening Mood Like our meetings, this is a peaceful, pressure-free, gentle, supportive space for your heart and mind. I was addicted to benzos. Severe trauma is part of my story. This is real for me. Not being anxious is not turning off emotions by sheer willpower. Trusting God's guidance invites us to shift our trust, focus, and burdens to God. Ancient Scripture says, "Cast all your anxiety on God because He cares for you". No medication in this world has given me freedom from anxiety as God's healing in Jesus, my Beloved Lord and Savior, has and does. Guided by biblically sound wisdom, you will build your toolbox with neuroscience-backed best practices and proven techniques to calm anxiety. Find hope in our compassionate community. In this non-medical setting, we draw on biblical wisdom to guide our emotions and renew our minds, and we use neuroscience tools to manage physical discomfort. This helps us navigate our well-being God's way. Created and facilitated by Madonna A., Rev., Chaplain, M.Div., CSD, CADC, CPSS, Clinical Therapeutic Musician

Real Talk: LGBT+ Dating Discussions

Welcome to the chat! In here we bring up issues in the LGBT+ dating community that we'd like to further discuss in group. We can also have those discussions here. Just a couple of reminders: this isn't a chat to help you find people to date nor is it a chat to build romantic relationships with the other members of the group discussions. I also would like to remind everyone to keep discussion topics appropriate and to avoid discussing overtly or implied sexual behaviors, acts, or otherwise.

Perimenopause and Hormonal Mood Swings Support Group Chat
