Let Us Connect: Online Space for Sharing and Understanding Social Anxiety
Details
Join us for a supportive and empowering online gathering tailored specifically for individuals navigating the challenges of social anxiety.
# Today’s theme
We’re starting the new year with a Soft Reset Bingo—a simple, fun activity designed to help everyone ease into the session comfortably.
The bingo includes everyday experiences from 2025 and light intentions for 2026. There’s no pressure to speak deeply or share more than you’re comfortable with. Participation is flexible and completely at your own pace.
What to expect:
- A relaxed, beginner-friendly bingo game
- Short, optional sharing
- A positive and welcoming group vibe
- A gentle way to connect and warm up
How it works:
Complete any one row or all four corners to call BINGO. If you’re new, feel free to participate at your own pace or just observe.
Meeting Guidelines:
- Membership: Membership is free and open to all. The only requirement for membership is the desire to recover from social anxiety and the willingness to work on it. Age, gender, location, background etc. are no bar. However, please note the languages spoken are Hindi and English. The physical meetings are currently only held in Delhi, but weekly online meetings can be attended irrespective of location.
- Active engagement: We encourage regular attendance in meetings and active engagement with the group.
- Confidentiality: Confidentiality and anonymity are to be maintained. What is said here, stays here - don’t gossip about others in the group. Please use only your first name in the group. Feel free to be discrete with respect to any specific identifying details such as address, school or colleges attended, full name, social media handles etc.
- Spamming: Please don't engage in spam/ discussions/ content unrelated to social anxiety and mental health. This goes especially for potentially divisive topics like politics and religion. Please don't promote any specific religion - General discussions on the importance of spirituality or religious practices for mental health are permitted. Let us not divert our attention from the purpose of this group.
- Promotions: Please don't promote any specific medical person, medicine, or therapy.
- Sharing facts: If sharing factual scientific information (instead of those based on experience), please try to cite the source.
- Respect: Respect one another’s opinions and accept differences. There is no room for sexism, abusive language, harassment, criticism, judgement, argument or comparison. Please be careful when broaching certain topics that might make the other person uncomfortable (eg. anything of a sexual nature). Let us create a supportive, safe and loving environment.
- Giving advice: Advice is generally not offered in the group, unless solicited. The purpose of the group remains to focus on ourselves and our own recovery. Please talk about your experiences and what you think, rather than telling anyone else what they should do. This gives everyone space to follow their own personal path of recovery without feeling any pressure or judgement from anyone else.
- Monopolising time: Do not monopolise the meetings. Try to limit your sharing to 5 minutes. If you want advice or if you want to discuss something in greater detail with any member, please reach out to them after the meeting. Avoid personal or side conversations during meetings.
- Interruptions: Listen without interrupting.
