I do not run DBSA and only hope to spread the word about this amazing support group. Welcoming of newcomers, free and peer-run, you may find comfort in this confidential and supportive setting. In addition to participating in the meetings, you will meet people from your community who can relate to your experiences. You may also learn valuable information about mental health professionals and services in your area, as well as tips and techniques others use to manage their condition. Please email getinfo@dbsahartford.org or alhsu64@gmail.com, or call Joanne at (860) 375-3027 with any questions.

I am a Peer Support provider for the International Association for Premenstrual Disorders. At IAPMD, volunteers give their time to support others living with premenstrual disorders via online chat. All of the providers have lived experience of PMDD, PME, and/or other reproductive health challenges and draw upon their personal experience to help others. Volunteers have completed our Peer Support Provider Training and are skilled at providing support, sharing resources and information and helping in moments of crisis. Premenstrual disorders are too often overlooked; therefore, we strive to educate and advocate for proper and treatable diagnoses.
