I need to make friends

NAS86244

I’ve not be diagnosed with autism but I’m certain i am. I struggle a lot with holding a conversation and making friends I’ve dealt with it my whole life but only realised recently. 
I’m currently 23 living on my own and I feel really lonely. I have none around me that bothers with me including my family , my days just consist of me sitting in my room all day by myself it’s quite sad to be honest. Is there anyone on here that is going through the same sort of thing and needs some company? I’m a very loyal person. 
sorry for the random post I just feel very hopeless right now and I’m not sure what to do.. 

For hobbies I like gaming , Football, nice walks , Driving

  • Hey buddy, 

    Don't ever feel the need to apologise for reaching out to the community. Its full of people who have all been through very similar situations or are currently going through something similar themselves. 

    It's not uncommon for the issues associated with being high functioning to really become prevalent in our late teens early 20s, it's a time when people the childhood relationships we have naturally begin to fade as interests change, once we're out of a school environment it requires different social skills we don't always pick up for quite some time after the typical person especially if undiagnosed.

    Feel free to drop me a message. I've got plenty of games, no need to feel alone.
