A Philly tip

7c_2.JPG
So many people send me emails about their mental-health groups and events, I can't keep up. There's something for everyone out there—I wouldn't be surprised to learn of a Schizophrenic Schnauzer Collective. And here's another one:

Recovery, Inc. is a free MH mutual aid group for practicing cognitive behavioral techniques. Recovery is typically high functioning men and women growing stronger, helping each oher. In Center City, meetings are available Tuesday nights at 7:30 PM and Saturdays at 2:30 PM in the second floor conference rooms at Graduate Hospital, 18th & Lombard Streets. Meetings are free. Click here for more info.

[Oh, and BTW, I don't endorse this method, necessarily, but I know people are often looking for support groups, so I'm putting this out there.]
