Same with me. I absolutely hate meeting new people too. I was dragged around to AA meetings during one psych hospitalization. Considering I don't drink alcohol, have never drunk more than 1 glass of wine with a host at dinner maybe 5 times in my life, it was pretty pointless. And I have never done illegal drugs at all, don't smoke either.
There is a depression/bipolar group that meets at a church nearby in the evening, not sure if it is weekly, biweekly, monthly and moderated by a licensed therapist. I want try this group, and I don't; I'm scared. I have even quit going to my book club group. Every group I try - mom's groups, PTO, etc. I just feel so disconnected, like it has no point for me. I can't connect to other people.
