SUMMARY:Birth Trauma Support
DESCRIPTION:1st and 3rd Mondays at 12PM (EST)/9AM (PST)\n2nd and 4th Wednesdays at 7:30PM (EST)/4:30PM (PST) \nLed by trained peer facilitators\, this group is for any birthing person who has experienced trauma (mental and/or physical) during childbirth. Did you feel unsupported during childbirth? Did you feel unheard or felt a loss of control? Have you been grieving your birth experience? You deserve support. Birth trauma is based on your perception of the experience\, and no formal diagnosis is needed to join this group. Some common symptoms\, but not all\, that can occur after birth trauma are upsetting memories\, avoiding talking about the event\, and having negative thoughts/feelings about the event. You can be at any point post-delivery\, from 1-week to many years. This group is specifically focused on birth trauma and connecting with others\, so you can know that you are not alone\, and you are not to blame. While your story has so much value\, in this space we will not explore birth story details as they could be triggering to others. We encourage you to contact a licensed healthcare provider to process your birth story. In this group\, we will discuss the effects of trauma\, our emotions\, and coping skills. \nThis group is not for:\npartners or non-birthing parents\nthose who experienced a pregnancy or infant loss (please join one of our loss groups for support)

SUMMARY:Pregnancy and Postpartum Psychosis Support for Survivors (Moms and Birthing People)
DESCRIPTION:Monday’s at 4:30 PM PT/ 7:30 PM ET\n\n\nWe invite those who are no longer in active psychosis and in recovery to join for support\, so that you can experience connection and support from other Pregnancy and Postpartum Psychosis (PPP) Survivors. This group is intended for those who are in recovery (no longer experiencing psychosis). Because PPP occurs less often than other perinatal mood disorders\, survivors can go their whole lives without meeting another PPP survivor. In response\, PSI has created an online peer-to-peer support group for PPP survivors. Like so many mental health emergencies\, symptoms and individuals vary greatly\, but PPP is generally marked by a loss of touch with reality. This can include symptoms such as mania\, hallucinations\, paranoia\, and/or delusions. If you are looking for more information on PPP\, please visit this webpage.  Whether your PPP experience was relatively recent or years ago\, you are welcome to attend our free\, online peer-to-peer support group. Our online groups are here to help you connect with other parents\, talk about your experience\, and learn about helpful tools and resources. If you are still experiencing psychosis or a mental health emergency\, we encourage you to reach out to 988.

SUMMARY:Bipolar Support for Perinatal Moms and Birthing People

Please reach out to the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline (1-800-273-8255) if you are in need of crisis support. \nYou are not alone. We are here to help.

SUMMARY:Single Perinatal Parent Support
DESCRIPTION:1st & 3rd Thursdays at 1PM (EST) or 7PM (EST) \nSingle parenthood is challenging\, especially during pregnancy and postpartum (perinatal period). Led by trained peer facilitators\, this group is for perinatal single parents who are widowed\, divorced\, or never married or partnered with their co-parent\, but they are caring for a baby (up to two years old) without a partner in their home. We know that single parents face unique challenges and obstacles that put them at a higher risk for experiencing depression\, anxiety\, and feelings of overwhelm during the pregnancy and postpartum\, so this group is a space dedicated to discussing those specific challenges and finding support from those in similar situations. Having feelings of chronic low energy\, anxiety\, or sadness as a single parent may feel like the norm\, but there are options for support. You are not alone\, and we are here to help.
