Alternatives to Suicide is a peer-run support group for people dealing with suicidal thoughts, urges, and/or previous attempts. This group is an open forum to talk about topics directly related to suicide or whatever else needs to be expressed. We take the approach of Harm Reduction and mutual aid. Alternatives to Suicide groups are safe places where we can openly discuss these topics.
In these groups, we encourage the notion of responsibility to one another, not for one another. In lieu of this value, people can openly express their experiences without fear of someone calling crisis intervention or psychiatric hospitalization.
These groups are for adults, 18+.
People are encouraged to come during times of crisis, as well as during times of strength. We ask that attendees come with an open mind, free of judgement - ready to receive emotional support as well as lend it to others.
