Experience with autism or anxiety? 

Hello!

I'm Ian. I’m 28 years old. I'm looking for a mentor close to my age to help me meet new people and explore life in my late 20s!

I want a simple life. I want to be independent. Right now, I'm taking vocational studies courses, and I volunteer at a food bank. In my spare time, I like to: 

🎮 Play video games, particularly Minecraft and Call of Duty

 🎵Listen to music ranging from oldies to 2000s pop

🐟 Go on vacations and fish 


I'm looking for a mentor who can help me with:

👋 Meeting new people 

🧠 Manage my anxiety 

🚗Help with transportation 

🚿 Give me reminders for hygiene tasks 

🛒 Assist with shopping

👫Support me in visiting my friends 

I need my mentor to offer guidance, motivation, encouragement, and help me learn how to push myself into doing something that is outside of my comfort zone. 

I need someone who can help me cope with the things that trigger my anxiety. and understand when something is bothering me.
