Struggling with Mental Health and Making Friends as an Adult

Hello fellow Alikes, I’ve never really used an app like this but I got the ads and thought I’d give it a try. Lately my mental health has been deep in the gutter.. I’d really like to make friends, but in adult life lately that seems impossible. I don’t have much money for activities plus my chronic fatigue/pain make a lot of things unbearable. Idk, does anyone have any suggestions?

Making friends as an adult is SO hard. Are you well enough to go for a light walk? Getting out of the house can be really difficult for me sometimes. Setting a goal of walking around the block or to the corner and back on a sunny afternoon feels nice and gives me a sense of accomplishment. I’ve met some of my neighbors this way and we say hi.

Same here! Looks like we have a lot of the same major conditions, Crohn's and Endometriosis being 2 biggies. I find my chronic fatigue to really interfere with daily life and especially work and no one seems to get it
