NYC Depression & Mood Disorder Group

About the Support Groups/Projects/Committees

The New York City Depression & Mood Disorder Group is a psychoeducational support group in Manhattan that attracts members from all five boroughs and the tri-state area. The group provides support for persons diagnosed and being treated for mood disorders: depression & bipolar disorder, as well as their family members & friends. Support group members include a community of persons dedicated to their wellness & recovery.


We are the proud recipient of a 1999 award for providing outstanding support for persons with depressive illnesses.

What We Do

At each meeting, we first gather for introductions & announcements. We then divide into smaller groups, led by trained facilitators, who have experience facilitating the exchange of experiences & ideas in group settings. Smaller groups provide the safe haven for members to share personal experiences & feelings. Although we encourage all members to share experiences, those who wish to observe without speaking are welcome. We request that all discussions remain confidential, to allow members to feel safe discussing all aspects of living with a mood disorder.
