make dua 4 ma finals
:salam2: brothers and sisters,
I hope this reaches you in the best of health/imaan
I have brought up psychological issues among Muslims in other threads before, but no one really addressed them. In fact, there were zero replies! Anyhow, I am bringing up a new one and hope that at least we can discuss this insha'Allah.
The question is do any of you guys know of Muslim support groups (specifically for people suffering from mental illnesses). Also, if you suffer from depression, bipolar and the likes, do you think you'd join an all Muslim support group to discuss ways to heal and share tips or just simply try to connect with people like you who're also Muslims??
I feel like mental illnesses in the Muslim community are not really addressed and for some it might even shock them that "a MUSLIM person" is depressed or suicidal (due to depression). I think, personally that it would be beneficial and I'd definitely join one. Other support groups aren't as helpful (because we don't share the same faith)---but yea,
Any ideas, concerns, questions, and criticisms are welcome!
Stay blessed,
Bedtime is calling, so I'll see you all tomorrow insha'Allah
