Loneliness

Jake

One thing i struggle the most with is wanting friends and people that are like me, but at the same time being scared to talk to anyone or actually do it. Not sure if this is a burden of my potential autism, but im recognising more every day how lonly i am, before it was just normal. What would suggest?

  • That is a big problem many are facing even if not always for the same reasons. You might want to consider joining a club or something like that related to an interest of yours. I find myself struggling to make conversation but as soon as a topic comes up I really enjoy, I‘m suddenly able to talk without end. This, of course, can lead to other problems like oversharing or not realising if others are bored by me. But in clubs or organisations that are about this topic it‘s something different. I think it easier to bond over shared interests rather than successful smalltalk.
