Social engagement when struggling with mental illness offers crucial emotional support, reduces stigma, and provides an opportunity of sharing coping strategies. Positive interactions boost self-esteem, provide distraction, and contribute to overall well-being, fostering a sense of normalcy. Additionally, it is a great overall support system for those who may not have people in their life that fully understand what they are going through.
Mind Wellness Society is a unity of individuals who share their experiences, strength and hope with each other so that they may improve their common struggle and help others recover from mental illness.
Urban Pooch’s Foundation is proud to host the weekly Mind Wellness Society social. This social is meant for those who are struggling with mental illness and are looking for an opportunity to be social in an anonymous, judgement free environment with like minded individuals.
