Hi
I’m new here and have joined to try and help my 19 year old son. He is at home with me full time as a result of his autism and anxiety. He is very lonely and socially isolated. His only friends are online gaming friends and he has just had a really bad experience where one of his online friends has been really nasty to him and as a result he has lost all of his friends online. Naturally he is devastated.
My son plays a wide variety of multiplayer games on the Steam platform and he uses a on-line chat platform called Discord.
Does anyone know how my son can safely make / find new online friends? Anyone else in the same situation? Just really want to help and support him in finding new friends online and I’m a bit stuck as to what to do to help.
Many thanks
Ruth
