Caregivers Support Group

Hi everyone, I'm new here. I'm Lilly in Ventura, CA. My daughter is disabled with fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome. She is so depressed. She lives in her own apartment thanks to getting Section 8 and SSI, but she it has not made her life much better. She is in her 20's and has been sick since the last nine years, since a teen. I have been looking for help and not finding much. She needs a group, I need a group, we need help. I am getting burned out being her only helper. My husband is pretty clueless, no other family helps. If she just had one other young person who was in her life and understood chronic illness it would be such a blessing. Her peers do not understand illness or want to be around much. Has anyone else found help for a situation like this? Any good ideas on where I should seek help? I worry about her all the time.
