| I've been fortunate in recent months to experience living by myself and I enjoy it mostly, but I'm getting concerned about the social isolation it carries and what I should do. I have mild ASD I'm in my 20s. I can socialise when I put my mind to it but still have challenges like pretty high anxiety ... |

| For people who are living away by themselves or who anybody who has thoughts on this - how often do you socialise? Do all people living away likely feel isolated and how do you cope? What are some good ways to fit into a new town/city? It's possible I'd be able to live away and I'm a quiet person wh... |

Just wonder if anyone else has something similar? This has limited me in a few areas of life such as pursuing passions, making fr... |

| I've heard it can be a great way to meet people going to social groups. I want to try this to make friends anyway, but it would be great to increase the probability of knowing someone as a friend to maybe something more. My interest is music but there are very little groups for that locally. I just ... |
