A support group for people with bipolar disorder meets once a month
A new self-help group for people with bipolar disorder has been founded in Groß-Gerau. Under the name "Die Polar-Lichter" (The Polar Lights) , it now invites people to an open exchange once a month for two hours.
Bipolar disorder – also known as manic-depressive illness – is characterized by alternating depressive phases and manic or hypomanic episodes. The associated mood swings often put a strain not only on those affected but also on their families and friends. Daily life with this illness requires a great deal of strength, patience, and understanding.
The new group aims to address precisely this need: In a safe and supportive environment, those affected can meet, share experiences, and offer each other mutual support. The focus is on listening, understanding, and collaboratively finding ways to live well with the illness.
