I am starting this group to bring parents who suffer from depression together. We can share stories, find coping strategies, and most importantly make new friends. Depression is an isolating disease so my goal is to bring people together.

This group is open to all parents (single, married, etc) who are looking to meet other families interested in the same activities. I'm hoping to plan some great trips and activities such as skiing, hiking, camping, canoeing, etc. Most that we can share with our children! BTW this group is South Shore because I live on the South Shore. I'm sure that events will also be in other locations since a big interest here is travel. Please feel free to suggest meetups and let me know if there is any par …

According to the New England Journal of Medicine, (quoted in the NY Times), based on eating habits which children are learning from their parents, "for the first time in two centuries, toda …
