Calgary Depression Support Meetup! 4.50 4.5017

This isn't a replacement for professional therapy or medicine.

This IS a place where we can:
- share our thoughts about depression and social anxiety.
- offer each other words of encouragement.
- see that we're not alone in fighting depression and social anxiety.
- have fun keeping active with physical activities or social with outings to coffee shops and other places.

Some surveys have shown that as many as twenty people in a hundred suffer from depression at one time. It's time Calgary had a meetup group that deals with an ailment that often gets swept under the rug.

The best way to cheer yourself is to try to cheer someone else up - Mark Twain

Let's talk.
Let's cry.
Let's laugh.

Together :)

You are not required to pay the Organizer a meetup fee.
You only have to cover the cost of anything food or beverages at the places we attend.

Events will be at either no-cost or low-cost places as I don't want to deter people from attending!
