So as a guy living at home who has lost contact with all my friends as they got married and moved away or got jobs that had them move, I find myself incredibly alone and lonely all the time and I don't know how to combat it. I'm happy for them but I am late to the party and only 2 weeks ago got a FT job that seems to be something I can do into the future and I will finally move out in 4-6 months time too, which is a big change but something I need to do to grow.
I've spent the better part of the last 2yrs just bouncing ideas and thoughts off myself only, just feeling very cut off as though I will never have friends or any intimate relationship ever.
I do my job and I work out and have a routine that keeps me barely together. And any smile I have is usually forced and conversation too. I just don't know what I can do to feel more out of life anymore.
I swear to god that I can't remember anything clearly that has happened over the last 3 months. Just anxiety and blur.
On the surface I look fine, and I dress well and can talk to whoever. But inside it's like fuck this shit why bother, nobody will ever want to know you anyway.
Who else feels like this and what did you do to combat it?
EDIT - I have to go to work but will read any replies after work.
