Abuse is an equal opportunity problem.
Gays and lesbians are not generally made to feel welcome in support groups composed largely, or almost totally, of non-gays. Indeed we often find such groups shunning, possibly threatening, and therefore unhelpful and even counter-productive. Groups organized by and for gays and lesbians may be available in your community but, often, the level of cruising that seems to be a natural part of such gay groups is distracting and, again, counter-productive to getting a grip on your problems and beginning the seemingly endless healing work. For most of us the journey back to sound mental and physical health is a long, often tedious, and profoundly lonely one. Without access to a group, we must, often as not, fall back on our own resources totally and be our own group of one.
