Living with Psychic/Physical Pain Group

For those who are sick & tired of feeling sick & tired of their emotional and/or physical pain.  This is a  non-religious based group facilitated by a loss survivor/social worker.

A typical member would be someone like my husband was, people who for all intents & purposes are considered “high functioning”, who are not part of the State’s mental health system, and about whom nearly everyone would say “I had no idea s/he was in such a world of hurt”.

The goal is to share experiences and ways of managing the emotional and physical pain you’re living with in a safe, upbeat environment unlike what most people think of when they hear the words “support group”.

We meet most Saturdays from 6:00-7:30pm at The Warrior Project, 189 B Main Street, Lewiston ME 04240.

****************

In memory of my beloved husband John Kelly Snyder… 20 Sept 1956 – 21 Oct 2016.

The Warrior Project is a warm, welcoming drop-in center for those living with extreme emotional and/or physical pain coupled with hopelessness, and a resource for families and friends fearing for the life of, or grieving the loss of, the person they love so much.

My Johnny was a true warrior, fighting demons no one else could see.  I thought he was the strongest man in the world, and perhaps he was, but tragically, the demons got the better of him.

The name of this project is in no way intended to be reflective of, or piggy back off, Wounded Warriors which serves those wounded after September 11, 20o1.  Like too many others, John was a warrior long before then.

Fair winds and following seas, Husband.
