Hi - Socialising and RSD

Hi , 

I’m autistic, diagnosed at age 12 (am 27 now) and have Rejection Sensitivity Disorder due to trauma from events and people/friendships throughout my life 

My brain is so overly complicated I can’t work it out myself and why I behave in certain ways (which is why counselling doesn’t work for me) 

I struggle a lot to go out and meet new people/make friends and I don’t want to ever do online dating 

Does anyone have any advice for RSD and going out and socialising as someone with no friends? 

P.S. does anyone do japanese jiu jitsu here in the UK with the Jiu Jitsu Foundation (TJJF) 

Hope you all had a good Christmas Christmas tree

  • I can relate to struggling to make friends and bonding with people as I find most of the time people just do not understand me! I have suffered from a lot of traumatic events in my life and this has increased the problem the same as it has for you! I would recommend reaching out to people with African heritage! I find they are the most understanding of people like us and can empathise a lot more with us and will happily sit, listen and bond with you!
