I’m new to this and would love to meet people people and make some friends

I am new to all of this and I would like to make some friends as never had any. It’s always been me and by best friend my mum lol. It would be nice to talk to other people like me to get a insight and understanding of autism and if the way I feel and understand things are the same as others. I feel confused and lonely, so anyone that would like to chat about anything I’m here.
