Who are we?

Echoes is a support group for people who hear voices.

We have emotional and mental health issues connected with our ongoing voice-hearing. We do not pretend to be anything that we are not.

The fact that we hear voices does not mean that we are not able to be good friends, enjoy each other’s company, and have fun!

What do we do?

We share experiences by chatting over a nice cup of tea or coffee. This helps us to understand our voices better and the ways they affect our lives.

We sometimes talk about which medicines we are using: how helpful they are and their side-effects.

We find it encouraging to hear from others what has been useful to them, and to offer our own experiences in return.

Doing this also increases our self-confidence. As we are all in the same boat, trust and confidence in each other builds week by week.
