AnCan and the Visual Snow Initiative (VSI) have partnered together to provide face-to-face support and interpersonal connection for the Visual Snow Syndrome (VSS) community by hosting virtual, peer-moderated support groups.
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. Having VSS can be isolating and it may be hard to find someone else with the condition in your area. We want to remind you that you are not alone in this. We can communicate together face-to-face, support each other, gain insights from one another’s experiences, and learn more about the diverse global impact of VSS.
