Hi Jesstastic and WELCOME! I know how it is to be alone, and it's not very nice.

Do you think that now that you've had some therapy, that you could contact some of your 'old' friends that disappeared, and see if you could re-establish your friendship? Or wouldn't you want to? Personally, I think it stinks that they abandoned you in your time of need, but perhaps they just didn't know what to do or say.

Anyway, is there someone in that group that you would like to be friends with again? Just wondering, as it would be easier to try to re-establish the friendship than it would to make NEW friends from scratch. Just a thought.

You can also meet people in libraries, stores, malls, etc.

I wish you the very best! Keep us informed on how you're doing, will you? God bless, Jesstastic, and please take care of yourself. Hugs, Lee
