Hello and my feeling very much Lonely Indeed

Hello

My name is John Stefan and I am from London. I Live In Peterborough. For more information on that see please my introduction post. I have Autism and I am struggling with feeling Lonely and anxious. This is also because I was heavely bullied by both the Staff and the students that I had been with in both Primary school and College. Ever since those days I have been feeling very Lonely and also anxious that I would be for the rest of my Life alone. This comes Largely because my Autism does cause me problems sometimes with making friends. Does anyone else feel Like that? And How is the best way to decrease such feelings? Please do feel free to reply to this post and I do Look forward to your reply.

kind regards John Stefan

Hi Hidden , welcome to our online community. Sorry to hear about your experiences. I am sure you're not alone in feeling the way you do. Have you thought about finding an Autism focused group in your local area to help meet other people? I'm sure there are places that might be able to give a little support to introduce you to others in a social setting.

Hello Maurice

The fact remains that as you may have seen in the previous post that you answered about my having Had covid I am not keen on meeting anyone in person at the moment. However I am open to connecting online and through online Live meetings with other Autistic people too.

kind regards John Stefan
