So I love my solitude but right now its oppressive. I have no idea how to make friends or where to meet people who i'd actually WANT to spend time with. Going through OCD hell total lack of energy and worries about the future alone is not fun.
How many of us are almost completely alone i.e. no strong supportive family base you can always depend on no friends etc?

hI...not sure what to say to help...but I've been there .. it passed.
I got up and out and just did stuff - made things - went places - saw things - volunteered to help others. The last helped the most. Gave me social contact etc.
I'm in pretty much the same place myself. It seems especially difficult to find friends as an adult since everyone already seems to have their friends and aren't looking for more. I don't really get any support from my family either - I rarely even see them (they live a very long way away and are always "too busy" to even talk).
