In this episode, I dive into the challenges of social anxiety, particularly around dining out as a child with Tourette’s Syndrome. I share my personal experiences of feeling uncomfortable around strangers, fearing judgment, and the relief that a booth can provide for families seeking a secure space to enjoy a meal together.
I also discuss how restaurants like Yo Sushi can create a unique and exciting experience for individuals with autism. The conveyor belts filled with a variety of colourful small plates offer a chance to explore new foods without the pressure of committing to a full dish. Join me as I share insights on how families can enjoy meals out and make the most of these experiences, even when anxiety looms.
