Peer support groups

[forbidden freedom]

How do others feel about in person peer support groups? I'd love to find a good one to go to...

I used to attend but eventually I just find human relationships futile because they're so fragile. I've rarely met loyal friends that are similar situations to me. Loyal people have come from different walks of life. I'm not claiming to be better but other depressed and suicidal people have shat on me at first opportunity I wish I could find people like me in this regard to trust.

Having been severely agoraphobic in the past, I have found groups to be helpful to limit isolation. I've definitely had bad experiences trying to transition from group acquaintances to friends. I recently lost a good friend from group who could no longer deal with my lows despite being adamant about how good things were going and how they planned to always be there. Seems the ones who claim to always be there are the first to walk away.
