Our virtual VSS support group focuses on not just the physical symptoms of VSS, but how it can affect your mental health as well. Run by individuals with VSS who understand our struggles, this is a safe space for people of all ages affected by VSS (whether a patient or a loved one) to relate to one another and share experiences, tips, or other important topics.
