As a shut in with social anxiety and very introverted I’m wondering how to find friends now that I got better. Basically starting from zero since I know nobody in my city so I’m wondering if someone has some experience with finding friends as lonely anxious introvert and just how other people find friends.
Not a shut in, but I don’t have any real local friends. I don’t go out much because going anywhere costs money, and I don’t have a lot of spare money, if at all, after rent and food. Living as a freelance artist with a day job just to get by really isn’t a good recipe for finding friends who aren’t in a Discord voice chat.
Short answer is; if you’re unwilling or too broke to go out, you will not have friends, and you’ll remain quite lonely.
