Noone there
 

I feel like my friends have abandoned me for the last 3months my friends have all been super bust and havent been able to crash or even hang. So i been feeling super lonely and isolated since i havent around people for that long... My friend told me to take walks in parks and goto mall but my anxiety wont let me go alone. I dont know what to do . any ideas? :nosweat:

I'm so sorry to hear that, and it sucks that your friends did that. If you want to chat on here you can always DM me! And maybe find some online friends that you share a lot of interests with?

If you're too anxious to go to the mall and stuff alone, maybe take a family member? Like a cousin or sibling?

I really hope that this helps! :)

It's tough when our friends get busy and schedules don't align, but that won't always be the case! Maybe try and schedule some time with your friends ahead of time, even if it's just for a phone call or facetime?

In the meantime, there is always someone around in our discord server or over PM to talk and you may be able to find some friends that you share interests with on here. Additionally, if you're too anxious to go to the park or mall alone and that's something you want to work towards being able to do, maybe start small and work your way up to those kinds of outings. For example, if there's a park a short walk from your house, one day take a walk over and sit in the park with a book or a good podcast for a bit before going home. It doesn't have to be for long, just to ease yourself into feeling comfortable going places and spending time alone. I know I always found it helpful to ease myself into those types of situations, I used to take long walks alone listening to my favourite CDs or playlists, then I started going to small coffee shops to read, etc.

One thing I noticed is the cause of loneliness is money. When you have money, you will have a lot of friends and when you are poor no body is going to give a damn. Sad reality.
