These meetings provide an excellent opportunity to learn from each other and offer and receive support in a comfortable and safe setting. Participation in any discussion is always completely voluntary. Some individuals like to listen and that is perfectly fine. You can also choose to not show your image or your name. Remember that our meetings are open to persons with ALL forms of dystonia and are not specific to any one form of dystonia! I hope that you will be able to join us.
