ive never come across any around our way and im yet to admit that i have SP to anyone, even family members because we're not a close family, i find that reading and playing guitar helps distract me from anxiety! also watching films and exercising has helped but i need to put myself out the there more, maybe start going to concerts again and festivals, what about you gg? have you found any support at all?

North east, but don't know of any support groups.. sorry..
Do you have a good local doctor you see and can trust? They should know or could find out about support groups in your area?
There is a psychologist in richmond that does group therapy (which is going to be cheaper than seeing a psychologist one on one)... Could PM me and I can give you the details, probably shouldn't post on open forum, a bit too much like advertising (though I have no connection to her)...

ADAVIC runs a support group in the Northern Suburbs in Brunswick.
Details are on their site at www.adavic.org.au
