MH and friendships and autism

Ava

I need to leave this area. I’m currently living in. I didn’t expect to make friends here. I just didn’t want anyone to know anything and be able to try to get well.

Unfortunately I’m too ill mentally. 

It only gets worse. I am wondering what you think about making friends with people online and offline when you have MH autism and no friends.

Doesn’t seem to be anywhere to make friends in these situations.  

autism and adhd and MH issues combined is difficult. 

How many people are isolated who do want to be isolated?

    I moved out of the city into a small town 5 years ago and it made a significant difference to my mental health. I don't know where you're currently living but ive found the quieter environment and sense of community has been a revelation.

    Personally I don't find either online or offline friendships easy. The friendships I have that work are one's where we do things together or share a common interest. So, I'd suggest to look for ways to connect with people through shared activities.
