I managed to go out tonight with my sister, I find it very hard to mix with people, but I did it. I went to a WI meeting where we played cards, it was a great evening, even though I suffered sensory over load I still had a good time, I wish I could go out more but don't like going to new places by myself. How can I overcome this? and how to cope with meeting new people? I really struggle to keep friends and so get lonely.

  • Well done and glad to hear that you enjoyed it. Maybe you could go to other WI meetings? It might be easier to develop a friendship with someone you have met before. If you do go to a few meetings and find that you can talk with someone there ok, you could then suggest meeting them another time. If you both have a shared interest such as going to the gym or wanting to start art classes you could arrange to go together, otherwise you could just suggest going for a coffee.
