Hi all,

I am experiencing a really hard time in my life with little to no support, and no friends to rely on. Much of the details are too personal to discuss publicly (or maybe not; I am new here and don't know what to expect), and I'm just looking for a place where I can feel welcome. I have already tried Meetup.com, but the only services are for parents with kids on the spectrum or young adults/teens.
I am 33(M) and live in Texas. My interests are; PC gaming, tabletop gaming (such as D&D), and art. I would prefer to meet some people near my location, but online gaming does have its advantages of having no borders. I like to communicate via Steam chat or Discord, if there's potential interest. The kind of games I play vary, but I was looking forward to playing Halo MCC with someone now that it's on PC.
So, feel free to say hello, send words of encouragement, or you can send me a PM if there's a match in interests and/or location.

Thanks to all for taking the time to read.
