I've been going to one for 3 months now, and there's many people that have been there for years.
Before everything happened with me, I never imagined there were supportive groups like this.
I listen to
mentalpod.com a lot, and am a member on their forum. They have a lot of psychologists, experts, and people with addiction, mental issues. Borderline, sex addiction, Schizoaffective... I learned a TON from an episode they had with a 25 year SVU policeman, who's written a few books on identifying predators, pedophiles, and understanding their disorders.
We are worth it. We are not alone. And I'm proud you asked for help. I need it too sometimes.
