facing-us-clubhouse-768x461

This is the Facing Us Clubhouse. Each room has something special to help young people with symptoms of depression or bipolar disorder.

There are six “rooms” in the clubhouse, each with fun and useful tips and tools inside:

  • A journaling room
  • A media room
  • A wellness tracker room
  • A room where you can read wellness tips
  • A room where you can write your own wellness plan
  • A “back porch” with lots of links to sites that educate about depression, anxiety, bipolar, good sleep, and more.

The wellness-tracker app was named the top bipolar app of 2017 by Healthline, a site that monitors the most helpful mental-health resources on the internet.

The information in the Facing Us Clubhouse is cutting-edge, and its design is fun and interactive—check out what the cursor does with the “rooms”!

The Clubhouse is a program sponsored by the Depression and Bipolar Support Alliance, a mental health support organization that has 250 chapters and about 650 support groups across the country. What makes DBSA unique is that they’re created for and led by people living with a mood disorder.
