Peer support is not like clinical support, nor is it just about being friends. Unlike clinical help, peer support helps people to understand each other because they’ve “been there", shared similar experiences and can model for each other a willingness to learn and grow. In peer support people come together with the intention of changing unhelpful patterns, getting out of “stuck” places, and building relationships that are respectful, mutually responsible, and potentially mutually transforming. In other words people come to a peer support program because it feels safe and accepting.MacNeill & Mead 2003, http://akmhcweb.org/articles/PeerSupport.pdf
