Adult Adoptee Support Group/Los Angeles

Hi -

I am new to this site. I have recently realized that I need to confront issues surrounding my adoption head on since they seem to be preventing me from sustaining a committed relationship. I am in search of an adult adoptee support group anywhere in or near Los Angeles. If anyone could direct me I would be very grateful.

Also interested!

I'm also interested in a support group in the LA area if you find one. I'm a 25 year old female who is also adopted and trying to confront the effects of adoption. If you're interested in chatting, or maybe meeting for coffee or something, we can do that too. We could be each other's support group.

Hi! I'm in San Diego and also an adoptee. I would love for us to all share our stories! Would you want to meet sometime? Sounds like we all live pretty close to each other.

Think it's great you gals are meeting up - also hope that it turns into a regular thing for you.

No reason you shouldn't form your own group - don't know how you would start one, but perhaps a local church would allow you to use a room/hall as a start??

LET US KNOW HOW IT TURNS OUT!!!!
