What have your experiences been like?
I used to attend Meetups, in Belfast and Dublin, before the ZANU Normal.
I couldn't hack the nights out, but got more contact during the Zoom Quizzes we did in 2020 and 2021.
I think quizzes would be nice. I wouldn’t mind interacting in that way. I would prefer no group, to one where autistic people just sit in a room together. That’s not being social. That’s just sitting lol…. Maybe I should keep the hope alive?…..
Yes Ree - I find that just being near and around people is sufficient to keep me sane and socialised.
Sometimes just sitting in the presence of others is enough for me to get my dose of socialising. Of course not enough always tho
The Belfast Social Meetups were basically drinking sessions, usually at Wetherspoon's.
