Friends
 

Hello I have internet friends but I don't have any in person friends.I have always struggled to meet people but I am lonely and want someone to talk to. Any ideas on how to do that? I'm frustrated. (I do have social anxiety which makes it hard to go into new environments and meet people).

Have you ever thought about joining some sort of group or going along to a class of some sorts? You could have a think about the sort of things that you enjoy and explore options from there. So if you like sport maybe joining some type of sport or perhaps you like making cards you could go along to a card making class just for example. Also sometimes some mental health places have support groups for those with social anxiety so that might be another option too.
