Autism and friendships / isolation

Jodie

Hello,

I am a mum of 2 in my 30’s. I struggle to make friends, as I work from home, have difficulties with small talk and I have a lot of sensory issues. I am interested in mental health, neuroscience and psychology. Is there anyone else out there with similar interests that is seeking friendship? Or can anyone suggest a good way to meet new friends? 

I have tried some Facebook groups, but feel a bit overwhelmed with it all. 

Thanks Slight smile
