Support groups

IVF can be very isolating and stressful. These support groups can make you feel less alone. I have used the Monash counselling service and found they gave some helpful advice at various times in our journey.
These are the supports and mental health services I am aware of:
- Private IVF organizations such as Monash offer free counselling for patients
- IVF Australia Facebook page
- Egg donation Australia Facebook page
- PANDA
-Bears of hope
- RESOLVE
- Lifeline
- Red nose grief and loss
- Consider who you work for as lots of organizations support counselling through organizations like EASA and it is confidential and including on your work remuneration package.
