Struggling to Make Friends with Health Issues

i have a really hard time making friends, and i’ve always felt this way- but with my health issues it feels impossible to make new friends. i’m losing my only friend right now, and she’s been my best friend for 3 years. everything is going to feel so lonely, she’s like my rock, my reset and my recharge, she feels like safety and like home. i’m honestly just kind of venting because she’s the one i would talk to, but we’re not really talking right now. i’m just feeling a little lost and right now it doesn’t feel like much can be done, except keeping myself distracted.

So sorry you’re losing your friend. It’s hard to deal with that. I have a hard time making friends too. Most of mine are online friends.

i used to be heavily involved in many fan bases and things like that, and made online friends easily at like 13-15. but i struggle with almost daily migraines, so now my phone is more of thing i use when i need to. i downloaded alike to have some feeling of community, and i love this app. i can’t get on and be as involved as i’d like, but every time i come on here it makes things feel a little less heavy. ❤️❤️ thank you for your kind words
