My advice honestly is to get a job or sign up for a class with a hobby you like. Getting a job around people has made me open up and I enjoy talking to my coworkers and the people that come through my job. With the hobbies I love throwing pottery or doing something crafty. Your city might have a craft club that’s usually only women and it’s been really helpful for me

My job really helped me open up and meet new people. I still have social anxiety but at least now I have friends lol

If you have even one person in your life, tell them. Ask them to help you, to introduce you to people you might like and to drag you out of the house when you don’t want to. Ask them to bug you with texts and tell you about their plans. Most people love to help their friends in their vulnerabilities.

Force yourself to get out in small increments. Walks to clear your head. Have a good friend listen to you. A t especially a smaller breed dog chihuahua, dachshund, toy fox terrier etc are great to build relationships with

Start small. Just try to spend outside in the fresh air. People are (generally speaking) not the monsters they are portrayed as on the internet. Something about being outside during the day, around a few people, they tend to act in a goal oriented manner.

Go to the same place every day, maybe you like a drink at a local coffee shop or a spot to sit and study at the libray, if you become a regular people will get to know your name and it makes life a lot easier when you recognize people’s faces
