Des Moines Anti-Social Social Club for Isolation Addicts

There are a bunch of us out here with withered social skills due to isolation, internet addiction, and being modern people in a world where our needs are mainly met at home through the internet. This is not enough. Its not enough for me, and I know its not enough for a lot of people as evidenced by the millions of articles documenting the loneliness epidemic.

It's tough to break the cycle of isolation so I figured a group for people in the same situation might make sense. I've run a social anxiety group for adults online before, but this is the first time trying something IRL. I am ok socially online, but I am pretty feral and have withered social skills in-person, but that's kind of the point. For us to get together and figure this stuff out.

This is half mental health/half social group. I’ll put together a loose agenda for the first 15 minutes but then after that if anyone shows up we can just sit and talk.
