Looking for friends

I’m 48 and have recently been diagnosed with autism and autistic burnout. I’m feeling isolated and lonely, I’d like to make friends, especially as I have had to take most of the year off sick due to the burnout. Would like to make friends whether that’s online or if anyone lives in my neck of the woods it would be nice to have people to meet up with.

  • Hi  I'm new to this community too, but everyone has been so lovely so far, I'm really glad I found it. I am also looking to make friends as I have been dealing with a lot of loneliness and burnout too. I hope things get better for you ASAP, burnout is no fun and makes everything 10 times harder than usual (that's what I have found in my experience).
