Our monthly bipolar support group meeting in Edinburgh. Everyone affected by bipolar is welcome including family, friends and carers.
The Lothian Bipolar Group, now part of Bipolar Edinburgh, has been providing peer support groups in Edinburgh since 2010.
The format is that we normally have a guest speaker talking about a topic that's bipolar-related, then we mix and chat for a while over tea and coffee.
Its a great way to learn more about your condition and to meet like-minded others.
Friends and carers are welcome also.
"Good company and lots of information."
"Feeling hopeful."
"Thought provoking session in a warm, smart environment."
"Calm and welcoming environment- a safe haven."
Speakers are usually confirmed a few days before the event so the best way to keep informed as to what is happening is to join our mailing list:
You may want to read our Comfort Agreement which is in place to make sure everyone has a safe and comfortable space to share personal experiences.
