Details

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

When you arrive, look for our Meetup sign. Check in at the main table and grab a name tag.

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 to social norms
  • Conversations that can jump topics (we love tangents!)
  • Acceptance of stimming, room to be your authentic self
  • Understanding when you need breaks or to fidget

(This group is designed for individuals who can attend independently without outside support)

IMPORTANT: While we're not a mental health support group, it is a safe place to make new friends. ๐Ÿ™‚

โ˜• While our Meetup is free, we ask that you please support the venue by making a purchase if you're able. This helps to keep us being invited back.

Come as you are, you belong here. Hope to see you soon! ๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿผ
