Local Groups
Connecticut Social Anxiety and Public Speaking Phobia Support Group, Central CT:
An excellent opportunity to meet new people that you can openly share your anxiety challenges with. Offer support and understanding and share your story with others. This is a judgement free and low-pressure environment.
If you prefer not to speak at all, no problem, just come and observe. Please do not let the fear that you will have to speak hold you back from attending. You can learn valuable information just from listening to others and realizing that you are not alone.
This group has been going strong for 12 years, over 300 meetings, with members driving over an hour to attend as there are no other resources like this near Connecticut.
Meetings run about 2 hours. There are 2 types of meetings, alternating between Regular Discussion Meetings (highly recommended to attend this one first) and Advanced Activities Meetings in which we do behavioral activities/exposures.
There is no commitment involved; attend as you are able.
On occasion, we do post events to go out and socialize.
