Support Resources

Use these resources in addition to your social network and other identified coping strategies when you need a little extra boost in support. 

Apps

7 Cups: This is an app where you can chat with volunteer “listeners” (non-professionals) and engage in community discussion boards to see what others experiencing similar challenges are finding helpful. 

 

Meditation: These apps include guided meditations on various topics. Try a couple to find a voice, tempo, and vibe that is a match for you. 

 

Miscellaneous: 

Websites

NAMI: this website includes useful information on mental health as well as listing resources for seeking support. They offer a calendar of events both in person and online and have chapters across the country. To find your local chapter go to “support & education” on the top menu and then on the bottom right click “find your local NAMI):
