Feeling lonely

Hi I have just joined, I was diagnosed with Autism last year at the moment I am finding it difficult to make friends, I feel lonely I get stressed a lot, I am happy to Be here, I’m still trying to come to terms with my Autism. I always find I go out of my Way to be nice and friendly people always end up hurting me so I feel a bit closed off right now.

is there any advice?

thanks

  • Hi and welcome to the community.

    I've found the same, really nice to people just try to be the best I can and sadly they aren't as nice in return - not that I expect it but it's disheartening when people use me.

    This is a lovely community. You'll make a lot of good friends here :)
