I have all the doctors I need, but would like ongoing support groups or any other help for these. I received a traumatic brain injury in Aug 07. I now have dissociative identity disorder and post traumatic stress disorder b/c of the injury. I am also looking for any inexpensive workshops, bible studies, or retreats (for individuals) that would be helpful. The only place I know of now is Oasis of Peace in Palm Springs. On Sat Mar 8 they are having a workshop 9-4 on "suffering...following on the footsteps of Christ". donation of $35 inc. lunch (maybe there's someone else out there that this can help).
