Out of Your Shell: Activities for the Shy & Socially Anxious

Toronto, ON

Out of Your Shell: Activities for the Shy & Socially Anxious

For people who are shy or socially anxious it is sometimes difficult to pull themselves out of the house and out of their safe routines. A sister group to The Toronto Shyness and Socially Anxious Support Group Meetup and The Shyness Workshop Meetup - we are an activity group for the extremely shy and socially anxious. We hope to make this a group where people can perhaps relax, foster real friendships and develop a sense of normalcy while in the company of others that experience the same fear of social situations on a daily basis. Together, let’s start experiencing life in spite of our social fears. There are several excellent Meetups that cater to support and self-improvement in the area of social phobia, but here we simply want to give therapy a break.
