Learn from others while finding your voice.
It’s natural not to want to speak up when you’re struggling with your mental health, addiction, and so forth. However, when you come to our welcoming, supportive groups, you can listen to others, discovering that the other folks in the group are going through similar (or even the same) struggles as you. Whether you’re at our IOP for mental health or addiction, this is true.
In time, you will most likely find (as so many have) that you have a connection to others. So, you’ll feel confident and empowered to speak up, to strengthen those social skills that may have weakened. Eventually, you could very well be the one that newer group members listen to and learn from. Along the way, you’ll develop relationships that can be of benefit during your time here as well as long after.
