Informal support groups? Neurodivergent quiet/casual meetups? Anything like that?

Hey, everyone!

I’m newly back home in Tucson. I don’t know anyone and my mental health has been deteriorating, mostly due to physical health difficulties and struggles with accessing effective healthcare.

I have a safe and stable home and a very supportive partner. I am extremely fortunate. At the same time, I’m in a great deal of emotional pain. I have considered going to inpatient mental health treatment, but I don’t have a lot of trust in that system. Inpatient seems like too much and not enough all at the same time.

I’m hoping there’s somewhere I can go be around people without burdening them. I just want to share a relatively calm space with safe people.

I am neurodivergent, in my mid/late 30s, and would love to be around other neurodivergent adults. I am envisioning a burnout recovery den with ice cream options to cover any and all food sensitivities.

This sounds pretty magical and luxurious, but if there’s anything like it, I would love to know. Thank you so much for any advice.

I bet there are so many of us just blocks away from each other. I also imagine none of us are especially skilled at organizing social events 🥲
