We are a self-help support group affiliated since 1986 with the highly respected Depression and Bipolar Support Alliance. DBSA is in almost all states. We were New Jersey’s first. The mission of DBSA is to improve the lives of people living with a mood disorder, and their loved ones.

People who are living with depression or bipolar disorder (manic depression), and their families and friends, are welcome. Our goal is to help our support group participants towards wellness.

Peer Support Groups

DBSA (Depression and Bipolar Support Alliance) support groups are non-judgmental peer-support forums for people with mood disorders, family members, friends and others interested in supporting people living with mood disorders. Meetings are led by trained volunteer facilitators who also have mood disorders. Our support group meeting and lectures are online and accessible virtually with your computer, phone, or other mobile device.
