I left high school when I was 15, and now I'm 17. I have grown very far from my once friends, and now I am very lonely. It's rare when I hangout with someone, and I often spend a great deal of time alone, which is making me extremely lonely, and I desperately want help. I'm not good at meeting new people either, so I need some help there, too.

Could you start by trying to get back in to contact from your old friends, especially if there are any that you would like to get back in contact with?

If not in that case, the best thing to do is, yes...join a group or get a hobby in which you can meet others.

Social meetings like church, baseball teams, and that kind of thing can also help, as well.

Best,

Clyde

Those are some good ideas. You can also try spending some time in cafes, diners, and coffee shops. Just talk about nonsense. Eventually the conversation will get interesting on its own.

Hi,

I guess because I'm a mom the first thing I thought was -how come you stopped school? Would you be willing to go back and get your GED. What kind of goals do you have for your life? I don't mean to throw it all at you at once, but I think you are lacking a direction in life. I think if you get yourself on track then you'll start feeling better about yourself. When you feel better then you'll naturally want to be around people more. You need to set some short and long term goals. Best of luck.
