Maybe start by looking at what you do with yourself every day. You get driven to a job and picked up and taken home, I assume. Then what do you do at home all those hours?
Well, right now I basically am cleaning up poop after two hyperactive puppies that my mom took in for fostering. Other than that, I try and do the basic things, like cooking for myself and trying to clean up after myself as well.

I also don't drive or avoid it mostly - I'm able to, but I really prefer not to. It has become very terrifying for me. I like to at night, but at the same time I don't really have anywhere to go or know where to go. I like bookstores and record shops, but I go very little and never meet anyone. I feel stuck also and my mental health doesn't help. I am in a very physical work situation that keeps me busy and tired. I know that's a bad excuse, but I'm exhausted a lot by the end of the day.

I like bookstores too, but since I can't drive I mostly just buy them online. I would like to go to the library but returning the books is a hassle given the rare opportunity I get to go to the closest ones.

If you want to talk about books, feel free to shoot me a PM anytime.

How would I even begin to take control?
Have you been diagnosed by a doctor? Do you receive disability payments from the government? Have you ever been to a learning specialist to help you understand how to work with your disorder and find alternative ways of doing things? With the right treatment, you might be able to do a lot more than you think. What kind of work do you part time?

Took six years out of dating after my ex left.(didn't so much as look a guy up and down.)
Gained 40lbs and definitely gave up, believe me I have a few undesirable issues that don't help with dating.
Six months ago I started going out for coffee with a guy I have known through gaming. ( yeah you heard me right, I still game even tho I am the wrong side of 35.)
Anyway point is we clicked, neither of us were looking. (He has his own sht going on.)
We just went for a coffee cos we happen ed to be in town the same day.
I think what I am saying is you can look too hard. Sometimes doing the stuff that makes you happiest brings what you need your way.

I would love to hear about the stuff that makes you happy Art, the stuff you do for you.
