What are some beginner friendly sports, dance, music,art or any other activities in Kandy where I can meet people and slowly build confidence in a supportive environment?
I'm a 20 year old girl and I've been dealing with depression for quite some time, but I'm finally in a better place now and want to slowly start engaging with society again.
I'm very shy, introverted, and have social anxiety, so I struggle a lot with social situations, especially around boys. I tend to become very quiet and awkward.
I'm looking for something small to start with, like a sport, dance class, music class, art class, or any other group activity in Kandy. I'm not trying to become really good at anything, I just want to get out of the house, meet new people, and gradually become more comfortable around others. I do better in supportive and friendly environments.
I'm not planning to do a job right now, and my university starts in the middle of next year. Until then, I want to keep myself occupied because staying home tends to make my thoughts worse.
Can anyone recommend places or activities in Kandy that would suit someone like me? I'd also appreciate info about the environment, the people, and how easy it is to fit in.
No public speaking suggestions please. Anything else is welcome.
