Groups might not be led correctly. Leading members of groups work voluntarily, so organisation may be different from a professionally run group. Similarly the aims of the groups may have a different emphasis to group work or support groups run by professionals. Confidentiality might be a problem. Members choose what they talk about in a group.
Groups regard information exchanged at meetings as confidential.
If there are problems with this, it is best to raise them with the group. Groups might ignore the changing problems of the member. Groups often notice people s problems before they get to crisis point. Groups might be inconsistent. Groups do come and go.
