Hey @Lavender_Starling, 

Welcome to the ReachOut youth community! Thank you for opening up and sharing what you’re going through. I can see that things have been challenging around connecting with others and making friends. It is understandable that your mental and physical wellbeing is being affected by all of this. Have you spoken to any family members about what you’re going through? I am also wondering if you have any professional support you can talk to? Sometimes it can be helpful to talk to others about what you’re experiencing.

It looks like you are close to ageing out of the service, so we want to make sure you are well supported. I encourage you to explore Beyond Blue who also have forums you may consider connecting with. We also have two articles that you might find helpful - how to make friends and meet new people, and things to do when you’re feeling lonely.

I hope you are able to find the support you need here at ReachOut!
