Calendar Event Sorting

At the top, the 24/7/365 SAMHSA Disaster Helpline and similar links.

Next, Bundled “All Day” Events

Some organizations (like 12 step recovery programs, AA, NA, AlAnon, etc.) have so many events happening throughout the day that they need to be in a bundled listing to spare endless scrolling.  Often there is a link to look up events by zip code and other criteria.

Lastly, Time-Specific Events

So you can see what’s happening in the next hours, time specific events are tagged and listed by start time from 12:01am early morning to 11:59pm late night.  There can be events and warmlines operating in different time zones, though we try to list all in Oregon’s Pacific Time Zone.

Page Advancement

JOIN GROUP

Inner Compass Initiative believes that within each and every person lies an innate wisdom — an “inner compass.” This wisdom helps us navigate the difficulties of being human in a confusing world. For many who have lived out the medical model of “mental illness” and its various pharmaceutical, institutional, legal, and professionalized apparatuses, connection to this inner wisdom can often be forgotten, lost, or taken away. Our mission is to help people find their way back to this inner compass, so they can take fresh steps into a new future based on that wisdom.
The aim of Inner Compass Conversations is to provide a space where we can talk about the immediate and longer-term concerns, challenges, and questions facing our community when it comes to psychiatric drugs and associated diagnoses. On an ongoing basis, we’ll also bring in the voices of guests to share a wide range of additional experiences and insights as well. Inner Compass Conversations Facebook group is a closed online space where our community can support each other – engaging together in discussion and dialogue about questions we’re facing, along with topics explored in our weekly video conversations and online posts.

Who Should and Shouldn’t Join

The Inner Compass Conversations Facebook group welcomes individuals at any stage of psychiatric drug withdrawal (from people currently on psychiatric drugs and considering coming off them, to people who’ve been off them for many years) along with their family, friends, and critically-minded practitioners looking to better support them. More broadly, we also welcome anyone grappling in some way with the problems of today’s mental health system.

This group, however, is not for everyone. If you are someone who currently, firmly believes in any of the below statements with no interest in questioning or rethinking them, we ask that you not join at this time and instead consider exploring the Learn/Unlearn section of the Inner Compass Initiative website:

  • “Forcibly giving people psychiatric drugs against their wills is sometimes necessary for their own good.”

  • “Anyone who feels harmed by psychiatric drugs or who experiences symptoms of withdrawal upon trying to come off them must have been using them “inappropriately,” “abusing” them, or showing signs of being an “addict.”

  • “Licensed medical or clinical professionals are the only people who should speak about general approaches to safe and responsible psychiatric drug tapering.”

  • “Mental disorders have been scientifically proven to be biological diseases that require medical interventions, and the only sources for valid, trustworthy perspectives on mental disorders and treatments are medically trained doctors and mental health professionals.”

  • “People who resist their psychiatric diagnoses or the treatments given to them by medical doctors or mental health professionals only do so because they lack insight into their illnesses.”

  • “It is offensive, irresponsible, and/or dangerous when people publicly challenge the scientific validity of psychiatric diagnoses or the safety and effectiveness of common psychiatric treatments.”

Additionally, no one under the age of 18 may join Inner Compass Conversations. Parents who wish to connect with others about how to better support their child are welcome to join.

Group Pledge

By joining and continuing to participate in the closed Inner Compass Conversations Facebook group, I agree to abide by the following guidelines, and I understand that if I violate the guidelines, I may be dismissed from the group:

  1. I understand that nothing shared in the Inner Compass Conversations Facebook group should be taken as medical advice, and that group admins and members do not claim to be medical professionals.

  2. I understand that Inner Compass Initiative is not anti-doctors or anti-medication, but pro-informed choice.

  3. I understand that it is up to me to always ask questions, do my own research, be my own advocate, and consult with trusted family members or practitioners before making health-related decisions for myself.

  4. I respect the principles of confidentiality and agree not to share anything posted inside Inner Compass Conversations outside of the group unless I have the expressed permission from the one posting the message to do so.

  5. I understand that different people arrive at critical perspectives on all things “mental health” on different timelines, in different ways, from different backgrounds, and accompanied by different experiences, resources, opportunities, and belief systems. I pledge to treat all members of Inner Compass Conversations with respect, care, compassion, and understanding, and to meet respectfully all members wherever they may be on their personal journey – just as I hope and expect for the same respect and understanding from them in return.

  6. I will do my best to speak only from personal experience (e.g. “I did this and this is what happened” or, “This is what I would do if it were me”) and will refrain from giving prescriptive advice or guaranteeing specific outcomes (e.g., “You should do this” or “If you do X, Y will happen”).

  7. I will not make specific, direct recommendations that others start taking supplements, prescription or over-the-counter pharmaceutical drugs, or any kind of psychoactive substance. I understand that the central nervous systems of many people who are on/coming off/off psychiatric drugs are highly sensitized, and that various supplements, drugs, and substances can be destabilizing.

  8. I will not ask other members to share medications, or offer to share medications with other members, nor will I post about illegally obtaining medications or drugs via online sources.

  9. I will not use Inner Compass Conversations to promote professional, commercial, political, or religious services or organizations.

  10. I understand that admins reserve the right to remove any post with or without cause or explanation. I understand that this Pledge may be amended at any time, and that the admins will inform the group of any change

  6. I will do my best to speak only from personal experience (e.g. “I did this and this is what happened” or, “This is what I would do if it were me”) and will refrain from giving prescriptive advice or guaranteeing specific outcomes (e.g., “You should do this” or “If you do X, Y will happen”).

  7. I will not make specific, direct recommendations that others start taking supplements, prescription or over-the-counter pharmaceutical drugs, or any kind of psychoactive substance. I understand that the central nervous systems of many people who are on/coming off/off psychiatric drugs are highly sensitized, and that various supplements, drugs, and substances can be destabilizing.

  8. I will not ask other members to share medications, or offer to share medications with other members, nor will I post about illegally obtaining medications or drugs via online sources.

  9. I will not use Inner Compass Conversations to promote professional, commercial, political, or religious services or organizations.

  10. I understand that admins reserve the right to remove any post with or without cause or explanation. I understand that this Pledge may be amended at any time, and that the admins will inform the group of any change

JOIN GROUP

Inner Compass Initiative believes that within each and every person lies an innate wisdom — an “inner compass.” This wisdom helps us navigate the difficulties of being human in a confusing world. For many who have lived out the medical model of “mental illness” and its various pharmaceutical, institutional, legal, and professionalized apparatuses, connection to this inner wisdom can often be forgotten, lost, or taken away. Our mission is to help people find their way back to this inner compass, so they can take fresh steps into a new future based on that wisdom.
The aim of Inner Compass Conversations is to provide a space where we can talk about the immediate and longer-term concerns, challenges, and questions facing our community when it comes to psychiatric drugs and associated diagnoses. On an ongoing basis, we’ll also bring in the voices of guests to share a wide range of additional experiences and insights as well. Inner Compass Conversations Facebook group is a closed online space where our community can support each other – engaging together in discussion and dialogue about questions we’re facing, along with topics explored in our weekly video conversations and online posts.

Who Should and Shouldn’t Join

The Inner Compass Conversations Facebook group welcomes individuals at any stage of psychiatric drug withdrawal (from people currently on psychiatric drugs and considering coming off them, to people who’ve been off them for many years) along with their family, friends, and critically-minded practitioners looking to better support them. More broadly, we also welcome anyone grappling in some way with the problems of today’s mental health system.

This group, however, is not for everyone. If you are someone who currently, firmly believes in any of the below statements with no interest in questioning or rethinking them, we ask that you not join at this time and instead consider exploring the Learn/Unlearn section of the Inner Compass Initiative website:

  • “Forcibly giving people psychiatric drugs against their wills is sometimes necessary for their own good.”

  • “Anyone who feels harmed by psychiatric drugs or who experiences symptoms of withdrawal upon trying to come off them must have been using them “inappropriately,” “abusing” them, or showing signs of being an “addict.”

  • “Licensed medical or clinical professionals are the only people who should speak about general approaches to safe and responsible psychiatric drug tapering.”

  • “Mental disorders have been scientifically proven to be biological diseases that require medical interventions, and the only sources for valid, trustworthy perspectives on mental disorders and treatments are medically trained doctors and mental health professionals.”

  • “People who resist their psychiatric diagnoses or the treatments given to them by medical doctors or mental health professionals only do so because they lack insight into their illnesses.”

  • “It is offensive, irresponsible, and/or dangerous when people publicly challenge the scientific validity of psychiatric diagnoses or the safety and effectiveness of common psychiatric treatments.”

Additionally, no one under the age of 18 may join Inner Compass Conversations. Parents who wish to connect with others about how to better support their child are welcome to join.

Group Pledge

By joining and continuing to participate in the closed Inner Compass Conversations Facebook group, I agree to abide by the following guidelines, and I understand that if I violate the guidelines, I may be dismissed from the group:

  1. I understand that nothing shared in the Inner Compass Conversations Facebook group should be taken as medical advice, and that group admins and members do not claim to be medical professionals.

  2. I understand that Inner Compass Initiative is not anti-doctors or anti-medication, but pro-informed choice.

  3. I understand that it is up to me to always ask questions, do my own research, be my own advocate, and consult with trusted family members or practitioners before making health-related decisions for myself.

  4. I respect the principles of confidentiality and agree not to share anything posted inside Inner Compass Conversations outside of the group unless I have the expressed permission from the one posting the message to do so.

  5. I understand that different people arrive at critical perspectives on all things “mental health” on different timelines, in different ways, from different backgrounds, and accompanied by different experiences, resources, opportunities, and belief systems. I pledge to treat all members of Inner Compass Conversations with respect, care, compassion, and understanding, and to meet respectfully all members wherever they may be on their personal journey – just as I hope and expect for the same respect and understanding from them in return.

  6. I will do my best to speak only from personal experience (e.g. “I did this and this is what happened” or, “This is what I would do if it were me”) and will refrain from giving prescriptive advice or guaranteeing specific outcomes (e.g., “You should do this” or “If you do X, Y will happen”).

  7. I will not make specific, direct recommendations that others start taking supplements, prescription or over-the-counter pharmaceutical drugs, or any kind of psychoactive substance. I understand that the central nervous systems of many people who are on/coming off/off psychiatric drugs are highly sensitized, and that various supplements, drugs, and substances can be destabilizing.

  8. I will not ask other members to share medications, or offer to share medications with other members, nor will I post about illegally obtaining medications or drugs via online sources.

  9. I will not use Inner Compass Conversations to promote professional, commercial, political, or religious services or organizations.

  10. I understand that admins reserve the right to remove any post with or without cause or explanation. I understand that this Pledge may be amended at any time, and that the admins will inform the group of any change

JOIN GROUP

Inner Compass Initiative believes that within each and every person lies an innate wisdom — an “inner compass.” This wisdom helps us navigate the difficulties of being human in a confusing world. For many who have lived out the medical model of “mental illness” and its various pharmaceutical, institutional, legal, and professionalized apparatuses, connection to this inner wisdom can often be forgotten, lost, or taken away. Our mission is to help people find their way back to this inner compass, so they can take fresh steps into a new future based on that wisdom.
The aim of Inner Compass Conversations is to provide a space where we can talk about the immediate and longer-term concerns, challenges, and questions facing our community when it comes to psychiatric drugs and associated diagnoses. On an ongoing basis, we’ll also bring in the voices of guests to share a wide range of additional experiences and insights as well. Inner Compass Conversations Facebook group is a closed online space where our community can support each other – engaging together in discussion and dialogue about questions we’re facing, along with topics explored in our weekly video conversations and online posts.

Who Should and Shouldn’t Join

The Inner Compass Conversations Facebook group welcomes individuals at any stage of psychiatric drug withdrawal (from people currently on psychiatric drugs and considering coming off them, to people who’ve been off them for many years) along with their family, friends, and critically-minded practitioners looking to better support them. More broadly, we also welcome anyone grappling in some way with the problems of today’s mental health system.

This group, however, is not for everyone. If you are someone who currently, firmly believes in any of the below statements with no interest in questioning or rethinking them, we ask that you not join at this time and instead consider exploring the Learn/Unlearn section of the Inner Compass Initiative website:

  • “Forcibly giving people psychiatric drugs against their wills is sometimes necessary for their own good.”

  • “Anyone who feels harmed by psychiatric drugs or who experiences symptoms of withdrawal upon trying to come off them must have been using them “inappropriately,” “abusing” them, or showing signs of being an “addict.”

  • “Licensed medical or clinical professionals are the only people who should speak about general approaches to safe and responsible psychiatric drug tapering.”

  • “Mental disorders have been scientifically proven to be biological diseases that require medical interventions, and the only sources for valid, trustworthy perspectives on mental disorders and treatments are medically trained doctors and mental health professionals.”

  • “People who resist their psychiatric diagnoses or the treatments given to them by medical doctors or mental health professionals only do so because they lack insight into their illnesses.”

  • “It is offensive, irresponsible, and/or dangerous when people publicly challenge the scientific validity of psychiatric diagnoses or the safety and effectiveness of common psychiatric treatments.”

Additionally, no one under the age of 18 may join Inner Compass Conversations. Parents who wish to connect with others about how to better support their child are welcome to join.

Group Pledge

By joining and continuing to participate in the closed Inner Compass Conversations Facebook group, I agree to abide by the following guidelines, and I understand that if I violate the guidelines, I may be dismissed from the group:

  1. I understand that nothing shared in the Inner Compass Conversations Facebook group should be taken as medical advice, and that group admins and members do not claim to be medical professionals.

  2. I understand that Inner Compass Initiative is not anti-doctors or anti-medication, but pro-informed choice.

  3. I understand that it is up to me to always ask questions, do my own research, be my own advocate, and consult with trusted family members or practitioners before making health-related decisions for myself.

  4. I respect the principles of confidentiality and agree not to share anything posted inside Inner Compass Conversations outside of the group unless I have the expressed permission from the one posting the message to do so.

  5. I understand that different people arrive at critical perspectives on all things “mental health” on different timelines, in different ways, from different backgrounds, and accompanied by different experiences, resources, opportunities, and belief systems. I pledge to treat all members of Inner Compass Conversations with respect, care, compassion, and understanding, and to meet respectfully all members wherever they may be on their personal journey – just as I hope and expect for the same respect and understanding from them in return.

  6. I will do my best to speak only from personal experience (e.g. “I did this and this is what happened” or, “This is what I would do if it were me”) and will refrain from giving prescriptive advice or guaranteeing specific outcomes (e.g., “You should do this” or “If you do X, Y will happen”).

  7. I will not make specific, direct recommendations that others start taking supplements, prescription or over-the-counter pharmaceutical drugs, or any kind of psychoactive substance. I understand that the central nervous systems of many people who are on/coming off/off psychiatric drugs are highly sensitized, and that various supplements, drugs, and substances can be destabilizing.

  8. I will not ask other members to share medications, or offer to share medications with other members, nor will I post about illegally obtaining medications or drugs via online sources.

  9. I will not use Inner Compass Conversations to promote professional, commercial, political, or religious services or organizations.

  10. I understand that admins reserve the right to remove any post with or without cause or explanation. I understand that this Pledge may be amended at any time, and that the admins will inform the group of any change

ABOUT US

Our Founder, Dennis Poncher, began the Because I Love You, Parent and Youth Support Groups, in 1982 out of a need to help his own family. Since then, Dennis has poured his life into helping other families in crises. Our support group meetings are attended by parents who have children (of all ages) with behavioral issues such as negative attitudes, truancy, drug and/or alcohol abuse, running away, and verbal and physical abuse.

Our program works for both parents and youth, offering support and guidance to improve communication, promote structure and cooperation in the home, and achieve our goal of family preservation. Meetings are run completely by volunteers, and they are a place where families can find support without judgment or feeling embarrassed by situations they may feel they have no control over.

The Because I Love You program produces positive results, all free of charge. Read the testimonials of parents who have attended the support group meetings at How B.I.L.Y. Changed My Life. For over 30 years, thousands of parents have attended our support groups and become “Success Stories” . . . We have seen runaways return home, truants return to school and graduate, children who were dependent on substances become clean and sober, and families that were experiencing crisis and separation reunite!

“Pills Anonymous is a fellowship of men and women who share their experience strength and hope with each other that they may solve their common problem and help others to recover from pill addiction. The only requirement for membership is a desire to stop using pills. There are no dues or fees for PA membership; we are self supporting through our own contributions. PA is not affiliated with any religious group, politics, organization, or institution. We do not wish to engage in any controversy and neither endorse nor oppose any cause. This is a program which works by regularly attending meetings and working the 12 Steps of Recovery with other pill addicts. Our primary purpose is to carry the message to the addict who still suffers. We work together to stay clean and help others achieve the same freedom.”

  2. I understand that Inner Compass Initiative is not anti-doctors or anti-medication, but pro-informed choice.

  3. I understand that it is up to me to always ask questions, do my own research, be my own advocate, and consult with trusted family members or practitioners before making health-related decisions for myself.

  4. I respect the principles of confidentiality and agree not to share anything posted inside Inner Compass Conversations outside of the group unless I have the expressed permission from the one posting the message to do so.

  5. I understand that different people arrive at critical perspectives on all things “mental health” on different timelines, in different ways, from different backgrounds, and accompanied by different experiences, resources, opportunities, and belief systems. I pledge to treat all members of Inner Compass Conversations with respect, care, compassion, and understanding, and to meet respectfully all members wherever they may be on their personal journey – just as I hope and expect for the same respect and understanding from them in return.

  6. I will do my best to speak only from personal experience (e.g. “I did this and this is what happened” or, “This is what I would do if it were me”) and will refrain from giving prescriptive advice or guaranteeing specific outcomes (e.g., “You should do this” or “If you do X, Y will happen”).

  7. I will not make specific, direct recommendations that others start taking supplements, prescription or over-the-counter pharmaceutical drugs, or any kind of psychoactive substance. I understand that the central nervous systems of many people who are on/coming off/off psychiatric drugs are highly sensitized, and that various supplements, drugs, and substances can be destabilizing.

  8. I will not ask other members to share medications, or offer to share medications with other members, nor will I post about illegally obtaining medications or drugs via online sources.

  9. I will not use Inner Compass Conversations to promote professional, commercial, political, or religious services or organizations.

  10. I understand that admins reserve the right to remove any post with or without cause or explanation. I understand that this Pledge may be amended at any time, and that the admins will inform the group of any change

ABOUT US

Our Founder, Dennis Poncher, began the Because I Love You, Parent and Youth Support Groups, in 1982 out of a need to help his own family. Since then, Dennis has poured his life into helping other families in crises. Our support group meetings are attended by parents who have children (of all ages) with behavioral issues such as negative attitudes, truancy, drug and/or alcohol abuse, running away, and verbal and physical abuse.

Our program works for both parents and youth, offering support and guidance to improve communication, promote structure and cooperation in the home, and achieve our goal of family preservation. Meetings are run completely by volunteers, and they are a place where families can find support without judgment or feeling embarrassed by situations they may feel they have no control over.

The Because I Love You program produces positive results, all free of charge. Read the testimonials of parents who have attended the support group meetings at How B.I.L.Y. Changed My Life. For over 30 years, thousands of parents have attended our support groups and become “Success Stories” . . . We have seen runaways return home, truants return to school and graduate, children who were dependent on substances become clean and sober, and families that were experiencing crisis and separation reunite!
