Joining a Support Group is good for your Mental Health
SADAG is celebrating its third annual Support Group Awareness Week from the 23 – 27 January 2023. The Support Group offering is very close to their hearts, as Support Groups were the core of where it all began for SADAG.
SADAG Founder and Director, Zane Wilson, following her own experience with years of undiagnosed panic disorder, realised how stigmatised Mental Illness was in South Africa and how little help and support was available to sufferers and loved ones.
She decided to start a Support Group, which then became what is now known as the “The South African Depression and Anxiety Group”.
Fast forward 28 years, and now SADAG proudly hosts over 160 Free Support Groups nationwide.
