Alateen is part of the Al-Anon fellowship and is for young people, aged twelve to seventeen (inclusive), who are affected by a problem drinker. Alateen members share their ideas and experience in order to gain a better understanding of alcoholism; they learn to accept it as an illness and so lessen its impact on their lives. By removing their preoccupation with the drinker's behaviour they are able to focus on their own development and sense of identity. |

Does someone you care about use drugs? When drug addiction enters a family via one of its members, the effect can be devastating. If you have reason to believe or even a vague suspicion that someone close to you may have a drug problem, we know how you feel. We know what it is like to be alone with this problem. We remember the feelings of panic and frustration that resulted from this discovery. We in Families Anonymous have experienced this too. Mail and email to the office will be dealt with on a daily basis. In the near future the helpline will be answered by an FA volunteer between 10am and 10pm seven days a week. If you fail to speak to someone PLEASE leave a message or email us. A volunteer will get back to you as soon as the messages are collected. We will not leave a message for you and will only talk to you. |

The groups are a fellowship of relatives and friends of alcoholics who share their experience, strength and hope in order to solve their common problems. We believe alcoholism is a family illness and that changed attitudes can aid recovery. Unless otherwise stated, Al-Anon meetings are held every week. The meeting lasts one and a half hours. You are welcome to attend if you have been - or still are - affected by someone else’s drinking. This group meets every Wednesday at 11am. |

In Worthing we run two groups for people who care for someone of working age (18 to 65) with mental health problems, such as anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder and schizophrenia. These groups allow carers to meet others in similar situations in a supportive environment, to have a confidential and safe space to talk, to learn how to manage stress, and to get information from mental health professionals. Free parking and refreshments are provided at each venue. The Meadowfield group meets in the Alder Suite at Meadowfield, Swandean Hospital on the second Monday of every month from 6pm to 8pm. The Methold House group meets at Methold House, North Street on the last Wednesday of every month from 5pm to 7pm. |

Are you one of the thousands of children and young people in West Sussex who help care for a relative who has a long-term illness or disability? Children with caring responsibilities are sometimes called 'young carers'. The person you care for may spend a lot of time in hospital, or may be too unwell to go to work or school. They may need a wheelchair to get around or take lots of different medicines to stay as well as they can. They may drink too much alcohol or take illegal drugs that make them act differently. If this sounds like your family, you are not alone! Lots of young people want to help out and feel proud that they are lending a hand. But sometimes caring can get you down. Cooking, cleaning, listening, comforting, keeping a watchful eye and generally helping someone to look after themselves may make you feel stressed and really worried. You may have no time for yourself. Did you know there is a whole team of people here to support you? |

The aim of the group is to help the family and friends of people with a current, suspected or former drug problem by providing mutual support; and to offer a forum where experiences and anxieties can be shared. In the group members learn to come to terms with the problem that is disrupting their lives. Attending meetings helps members adopt an honest and consistent approach towards the addict. This in turn often brings him/her to realise that he/she needs help to live without drugs. Experience has shown that help for the family and friends means important help for the drug-dependent person. This group meets on Mondays from 7.45pm to 9pm. |

The Independent Living Association (ILA) is a local user-led charity providing a wide range of support for people with care needs or caring responsibilities. We are run by the users of our services, headed by a board of trustees who are local people directly answerable to all the other members. Our constitution requires that most trustees and members are disabled people or carers. We believe that our core work, helping people to organise and run their own care arrangements under local authority self-directed support schemes, should be directed by the people who know best what's needed - our members and customers. |

If others don't seem to know how to help then come and be part of a MDF The BiPolar Organisation self help group. You will find a safe space for mutual support with others in similar situations to your own. Your experience counts if you are: a user; a carer; needing to be heard; feeling isolated; lacking in self-esteem and confidence; angry; unsure; needing information or advice; someone with ideas on self management or complementary treatment; not able to share your situation with friends or colleagues. Join in and gain more confidence, make new friends, get practical advice, get to know yourself better or learn to manage mood swings. This group meets every first Thursday of the month between 7.30pm and 9.30pm. Please note: There are no MDF The Bipolar Organisation self-help groups in West Sussex. This Brighton group is the nearest to most of West Sussex, though there are also groups in Dorking and Guildford (Surrey) and in London. Call 08456 340 540 for details of these groups. |

The Sussex Psychosis Research interest Group (SPRiG) incorporates clinical and academic researchers within the University of Sussex, Brighton and Sussex Medical School and Sussex Partnership NHS Foundation Trust. The SPRiG group is part of the Clinical and Developmental research group at the University of Sussex. Our research explores understandings of the experience of psychosis and factors that moderate remission and recovery. Our interests aim to be holistic, encompassing a broad bio-psycho-social perspective, within a developmental and clinical context. Inherent in our research are the involvement of service users, and the translation of research into meaningful health and wellbeing benefits for people with psychosis, their families and carers. |

Sussex ADHD Support Group run a monthly Drop-In Session on Saturdays. This takes place from 10.00 - 12.00 on the second Saturday in the month (not August or December). Everyone is welcome to these drop-ins. If you need to bring your children with you, there are some toys available to play with, but you are reminded that it is your responsibility to supervise your children. Parking is available outside the building - we will issue permits to visitors on arrival. Members of the Support group committee (who are all volunteers) will be available to talk to you and refreshments are provided. There will be some leaflets and information for you to take away. We also have a library of books on ADHD and associated conditions which you are welcome to look at. These are available for members to borrow. There will usually be other people either with ADHD themselves or who have children with ADHD and it is often helpful to share information.
***We are considering setting up a monthly group for adults with ADD/ADHD. This will meet in the evening, possibly in Burgess Hill. Partners will be welcome to attend as well. Anyone who is interested should phone or email. We will be setting up local sub-groups to provide support in different parts of Sussex and have approached CAMHS for assistance with this. We need volunteers to help to run these and will provide any help that is necessary, together with a small library of books and some toys. Anyone who is interested in getting involved should phone or email*** |
