I think that a depression and anxiety support group could be very helpful to me, but I am uncomfortable sharing my symptoms publicly. Does anyone know about a private support group for people with these issues?

dhkerby, I don't know any private support groups, but you can be anonymous here. Choose another call name, don't fill out the profile page, and skip the photo profile. Privacy will let you communicate more freely.

2 Reactions@dhkerby I am going to tag @colleenyoung, and perhaps you can ask her about changing your moniker here to something that does not reflect your name at all. Perhaps that would help you feel more comfortable? Whatever you say in a post is yours, we have no way to verify the completeness or validity.
Anything we post here on Mayo Clinic Connect is open to the public to read. Only those who go the next step to become a member can then post a reply or comment, or start new discussions, just like you did.

1 ReactionEven with a moniker that has part of your name you’re still pretty much anonymous here on the forum. You only need to give out the info you want us to know and no one will ask you otherwise here on the forum.
