About the host
Hi ! My name is Michelle, a Nationally Certified Peer with an extensive background in healthcare; my focus is overall health and wellbeing! I am one of those people who roll out bed smiling, grateful for another day! It has taken me years to become "comfortable in my own skin" and now that I am, it's all about embracing life every single day as a beautiful gift; hopeful, purposeful and peaceful.
Motivation for help
I believe connection is the opposite of addiction and together we can foster these connections to create meaning, purpose and value in our lives. I love living today and hope to share this joy with others. We can grow, we can find "more" in healthy ways that feed our souls, minds and bodies in a way that manifest a legacy for our families and our earth.

Depression and Bipolar Support Alliance

Depression and Bipolar Support Alliance (DBSA) is the leading peer-focused national organization focused on depression and bipolar disorder. DBSA's peer-based, wellness-oriented, and empowering services and resources are available when people need them, where they need them, and how they need to receive them. This includes online and local support groups, audio and video casts, and printed materials distributed by DBSA, our chapters, and mental health care facilities across America.

DBSA online support groups provide people living with depression and bipolar disorder a place to share experiences, discuss coping skills, and offer hope to one another. DBSA support groups are peer-led, meaning they are facilitated by someone living with a mood disorder who has been trained and certified to guide others on their journey.

DBSA online support group meetings are peer-based self-help groups. In the DBSA context, a peer is a person with a mood disorder. Another distinction of peer is that we are not professionals - physicians and other mental health providers. We are here to assist, encourage, and enable each other to help ourselves.

Please note that the schedule for DBSA support group meetings on HeyPeers has been updated for 2024. To see all available meetings through DBSA, or to find alternatives if you are waitlisted for a group, visit https://www.dbsalliance.org/support/chapters-and-support-groups/.
