What’s the Best Medicine to Reduce Depression and Anxiety? –> Community
Just by participating in our activities you help yourself and others to feel less alone and to feel supported during this crisis. This can help take the edge off the increased strain on our mental health. Helping others gives a powerful boost to our own self-esteem and mental health — especially in a time of crisis. Whether you can contribute a little time or a lot you’ll be a player on Team Mood Support!
Choose From Any or All of the Following FREE Services:
Online Social / Community Center
Our private 24 x 7 Discord channel - a friendly, private online social space / community center created by our nomad members to share with CT area residents. People who "get" you will have text discussions, post pictures, play games, teach and learn each other's hobbies and wellness techniques, have scheduled or impromptu phone and/or video get-togethers, and interact without constant exposure to the news or the toxicity of social media like Facebook and Twitter. Requires a smart phone, computer, or tablet. Fill out our "Tell Us Your Preferences" form below to be invited to this service. If you've already registered in the past, send an email to dbsahartford@gmail.com with the "Join Discord" in the subject line.

For CT area residents and our nomad members. No registration required. Click for description and dial-in instructions. NEW!!!!! We've added a weekend tea/coffee meetings
