Mental health peer support group - meeting April 25 @ Mac
Mad Students Society (MSS) is a group of/for students who are attending or planning to attend post-secondary or adult education institutions and have past/present experiences with psychiatric/mental health systems. We meet monthly (in downtown Toronto, North York, and Hamilton) to support each other and talk about concerns we share. We also communicate through an active, private email listserv that is open to members living anywhere in the world.

Our next Hamilton meeting at McMaster University will be April 25 from 4:30-6:30pm. For more information on meeting locations, joining the email listserv, requesting brochures, or about the group, please email Phebe at [email protected] ciety.com. Check us out on Facebook or visit our website at madstudentsociety (dot) com.

So this is for people that have mental problems or have had mental problems in the past?

Yup. Members all have experiences with madness, mental illness, mental health issues/problems/challenges/concerns/disabilities, mental health/psychiatric systems - past, present, future, what have you... MSSers use/refuse a variety of terms to describe their relationship to these experiences/systems.
