About

DBSA ABQ Metro, an independent chapter of the Depression/Bipolar Support Alliance, is dedicated to helping the mood disordered community through peer-run support groups and informational outreach programs. We promote the acceptance of mood disordered individuals and fight the pervasive stigma of mental illness.

Every week, we hold a free peer-run support group for mood-disordered individuals. If there are enough attendees, we may split into a depression support circle and a bipolar support circle in different rooms. Friends and family are welcome to attend and learn, and are invited to split off into their own peer-led support circle for support on coping with the challenges of being friends or family of a mood-disordered individual.
