A good support group can become a true lifeline for those in the midst of difficult circumstances. Whether diagnosed with Alzheimer's/dementia or caring for an afflicted loved one, connecting with people going through similar circumstances can bring you huge comfort and support. It is important for you to know you are not alone!
A good support group should provide an opportunity for people to share their personal experiences and feelings, coping strategies, and reputable information about dementia and/or caregiving. It's a place where people can feel understood and known without fear of judgement.
