“ Single mom to 1 girl born in 2002. I have depression and anxiety, mostly caused by other health issues. I enjoy baking, cooking, photography, coloring mandalas, word and puzzle games, playing cello & collecting ivy things and lobster trap buoys. ”

“ I'm hoping to become acquainted with some interesting, like-minded people through these meetups. I have a graduate degree in Biology and varied artistic and philosophical interests. I also enjoy carefree fun times and life's simple pleasures. ”

“ I am 32 and would like to meet new people. I am in the process of a divorce, work full time, go to school part time, and I am a full time mom. I want to meet people with the same interests and learn to have fun again. ”

“ This area sucks, but hopefully if I type in the right thing, I'll meet some people who I can connect with better than some of the people I'm surrounded by, except for my friends. I'm open-minded and nice and I hope others can be nice here too. Adios ”

“ I want local Depression Meetups because I need to meet people that are going thru what I am going thru and would be more understanding and helpful. Even talking one on one would be helpful. If interested email djkskal125@epix.net. ”

“ I want local Shyness & Social Anxiety Meetups because many people, including me, suffer from social anxiety. Email me at gpsade50@hotmail.com if you are in my area and would like to try to start a social anxiety group. ”
