Struggling with therapy/social prescribing homework (social situations mentioned)

Stevie

I’ve been given homework by both Talking Therapies and Social Prescribing. I find it very difficult to start, and even harder to finish.

Part of my agreement with Social Prescribing was to try attending a low-stakes art class at a community space called the Hub. I couldn’t even make it through the door and ended up just sitting outside.

I’ve also tried multiple times to join a Ramblers wellbeing group, but each time I wasn’t able to go through with it.

The social side of the homework is where I get stuck, especially when it involves being around people I don’t know.

  • I have a similar issue, I was sent to a meeting for neurodivergent people, I emailed them first of all and found out who was the contact and where and when I need to be.

    Initially it's a real push to actually get out of the car. I met the guy in charge and he ran through a few details and then I sat at the back and talked to another autistic person, who was just as nervous I me.

    I've really had to push myself out of my comfort zone, as I really struggle with new situations and people.

    Take care.
