Shy and Neurodivergent Friendly Hangout

Details

A judgment-free zone for shy and neurodivergent people to connect authentically.

Are you tired of masking? Need a break from explaining yourself? This meetup is for adults with social anxiety, ADHD, or autism who want to be around others who just "get it."

## What to expect:

  • No pressure to be "on" or perform social norms
  • Understanding when you need breaks or fidget
  • Conversations that can jump topics (we love tangents!)
  • Acceptance of stimming, quiet moments, and your authentic self

## Our one rule:

This is our oasis from the outside world. Please bring kindness and leave negativity/conflict at the door.

This group is designed for individuals with low support needs who can attend independently.

Come as you are. You belong here.

Do you have social anxiety? Are you struggling with having conversations? Please feel welcome to see our original FREE classes here:

IMPORTANT: We are not a mental health support group but this is a safe place to make new friends.

This group is brought to you by the International Friend Connection in partnership with The Octopus Movement Think Tank.
