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.

    I have also been recently diagnosed and I think am in burnout (I am just about managing to function but its a struggle)

    I have read a lot of this forum and there is some good advice given. 

    The main thing I am trying to do it look after my physical health as best I can and try and remove some of the things that cause me stress. Some stresses going to always be part  of life but some can be reduced
