It is normal, unfortunately, but it's not healthy. If your kids are teens, then you can probably leave them for a couple of hours to do an activity.

Get on meetup.com to find activities in your area (some should be free--like walking groups). If you have time, take yourself and your kids to do volunteer work. If you can afford it, join a dance or language class or a gym. Many other people will be there to meet people. Going to the gym or getting other exercise (walking somewhere) every day will make you feel much better once you get used to it.

It won't necessarily be a fast process, but you have to start by making an effort.

I am in the same boat as you at 32! Its absolute shite and can feel very lonely and isolating at times! You're welcome to message me anytime if you want some convo 🙂

I feel the same, utter shite 😢 don’t have many friends, but thought of my colleagues as close friends. I’ve been off work coming up to nearly 3 weeks, and not one of them has sent a message. Feeling very sorry for myself. You’re not alone op, sending virtual hugs 🤗
