Hi Rahima and welcome to the community! 
I'm sorry to hear how you're feeling. Unfortunately, it's not uncommon for us to feel lonely and isolated.
You might find some of the advice in these articles helpful:
NAS - Loneliness - includes links to other examples of autistic people's experiences of loneliness and how they cope.
NAS - Making friends - a guide for autistic adults
You might like to consider asking your GP to refer you to your local social prescriber. I've had a course of appointments with ours, who gave me some useful ideas. Their role is to develop a personalised care and support plan that meets your social needs, as well as your practical and emotional needs.
This could include helping you to find local groups or socialising activities. The article below explains more:
NHS England - Social prescribing
You might also be able to find some socialising opportunities via the the NAS's directory, or through a local NAS branch:
NAS - Autism Services Directory
As a final suggestion, you could search on Facebook and/or Google for any local groups that might fit with your interests and hobbies.
