Anxiety & Life: A Safe Space
Anxiety doesn’t always have a single cause. Sometimes it’s work, sometimes it’s the pressure of daily life, or simply the challenges of navigating a new city. Whatever is on your mind, you don’t have to face it alone.
This meeting is an open invitation to talk about anxiety in all its forms. Whether you are struggling with professional stress, personal life changes, or general late-night worries, this is a safe and judgment-free space for you.
We will meet at a calm café to exchange experiences, support one another, and realise that we are part of a community. Whether you feel ready to share or just want to sit and listen, you are more than welcome.
Let’s take a deep breath and start this Saturday with some meaningful conversation.
**Please note:** I am not a mental health professional. This group is intended for peer support and sharing personal experiences only. It is not a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. If you are in a crisis or need professional help, please consult a qualified healthcare provider.
Brunch & Chill: Make New Friends
⚠️ **IMPORTANT: You must sign up and buy a ticket here to attend:**
[https://groupvibe.com/](https://groupvibe.com/)
**Join the Dublin** **Brunch Club and make new friends!**
Each meetup brings together 4–6 people for casual conversations over brunch. We use the Groupvibe platform to facilitate the meetup and ensure everyone’s a good fit.
👉 **To attend, you’ll need to complete registration via this link:**
[https://groupvibe.com/](https://groupvibe.com/)
We’ll share the exact location of the upcoming meetup the night before only if you have bought a ticket or membership plan.
**Why this works:**
\* Smaller groups make real conversations easier.
\* Discover new restaurants in your city, together.
\* Curated brunch venues with good food and vibe.
\* If you hit it off with your group, there’s plenty of time to hang out afterwards.
**Note:**
RSVPs on Meetup don’t reflect total attendance. Many attendees register directly via our website. The event on [Meetup.com](http://meetup.com/) is only a placeholder.
This meetup is organized by Groupvibe, a small team passionate about helping people form meaningful friendships offline.
