The title says it all really.
i have no friends locally and no close family apart from my Ds (16).
I’ve tried meting people through social groups, etc but find them cliquey. I’m not someone who easily socialises and I only feel connected to very few people. I’ve tried dating but nothing long term.
im also very anxious about some things, worry too much about work and if I make a mistake and I overcheck things, not just at work.
ive tried various forms of counselling with no positive effects and have started antidepressants.
i work full time - most of my colleagues are ok but they’re not friends.
Apart from my son, I have virtually no meaningful relationships.

Hi OP, what do
You like doing? Singing, walking, yoga, art? Could you do one of the activities you do like through a group?
