A place to meet friends with SAD/ just talk

Here's a new place to meet friends with SAD

Hi guys, a few months ago, a friend and I made a support group for people with social anxiety disorder on skype. Don't let the skype tag scare you, we just mostly talk over text in a group setting :)
So far it's been a great way to meet people who go through the same thing I have. It's been pretty amazing, I never expected skype groups to be so helpful. My social skills still aren't 100% normal but it has gotten SO much better sine the group. I had literally 0 friends so I didn't really know how to talk to people haha. Besides talking about anxiety, we have A LOT of laid back talks so even though it's a support group, most people just consider it like a place to hang out. Since posting about it on some other forum, we have a few members from all over, so the chat has people on nearly 24/7. Stop by whenever you want to talk to someone!! It's not a huge group so far, 26 people in total but only around 10 active members.
If anyone is interested, add me on skype: brittanyj101

Is it video chat, or just audio?
I created a skype account a few years back. I even added some people from this site on my contacts list, but I never worked up the courage to actually try it.

For the most part, it's a group text chat. And we've gotten a few awesome new members! There are calls but of course they are all optional! Some people in the calls just lurk (listen without talking), most talk, and some video call. It really depends with who is in the call, ya know?

Can I join too? I have so much problem when I need to meet people for work purposes or I have to talk something in front of many people.
 
Is there a age limit for the Skype group or anyone can join?

there are no age limits, everyone is welcome! But just so people know what to expect, the group has grown a bit since posting. Now there are somewhere around 40+ members and a lot are active. Ages vary so much!
Most are around 20 something
the second largest group would be the teens
and we have a few members in their 30's

and the 3 most popular countries where people are from are the US, Canada,and the Uk
