Q&A: Anyone know of any women’s mental health retreats in the Vermont/New England area?

Question by Christine Lamar: Anyone know of any women’s mental health retreats in the Vermont/New England area?
I am depressed and I feel the only way i can actively deal with my problems and get out of the slump I am in is to get away from my day to day responsibilities for a few weeks or a month and just take the time for myself. I have gone to a therapist before but I feel like I can not even think in my own home. Just looking at the house responsibilities drives me crazy. Do you know of any retreats in this area? Specifically for women?

It’s called sexism. Why do men run almost all the big corporations? Why do women make 75 cents on the $ 1 men make? The gender gap may be closing, but you can still drive a mack truck thru the opening in the door.

I honestly don’t think that your sex matters when they treat bi-polars . I am bi-polar and have seen that first hand by being hospitalized 6 times for the depressions. The men were on the same kinds of meds the women were on. Counseling, seeing a Psychiatrist, and taking your prescribed meds are 3 ways to try and fight the disease for both sexes.

Q&A: Is it a good or bad idea to date women you meet at mental health meetings?

Question by ghost: Is it a good or bad idea to date women you meet at mental health meetings?
I’ve seen a couple women that look alright that have mental illness. Would two people who have mental health issues be a good match, or would it be a bad thing? I don’t really want to produce a baby that might have issues, to eugenics is not what I’m talking about.

It’s difficult. Both my boyfriend and I suffer from mental illness (personality and mood disorders, respectively), and we’ve both had times where we would have/maybe should have left one another. It’ll be a year this coming February. He was with me through a major depressive episode about electroconvulsive therapy,and I’ve been with him through unchecked illness. I guess what I’m trying to say that is mental illness can be fine, or it can be life altering. Just be prepared for both. It can work, but not without hardship. Some people says it’s good because they “know what you’re going through,” but I know this a major source of conflict for the two of us. You never know if you don’t try.
