Im 19M and just moved into dorms at my university after commuting. I deal with social anxiety and depression and thought that moving into student housing would help me socially, but I still find myself feeling and being very lonely. I get along with my roommates and even try to push myself into socializing with them but i still feel somewhat distant from them. They’re already close and all of them have their own friends so its a bit harder to get close with them. They go out all the time but never really extend an invite to me. I want to invite them out to eat or whatever but they’re usually gone hanging out with their friends, and the one time i was able to i kinda just got blown off. I don’t know if its because they don’t want to hang out with me or if I’m just not trying hard enough to be friendly. Even outside of that I’m having a hard time making friends especially since most clubs are cancelled or restricted because of covid. I don’t really know how to make friends outside of specific situations due to my anxiety. Its so frustrating because i moved all the way to New York for school and i’m not really experiencing the social life i wanted. It just gets really hard being alone all the time especially in a city like this. I need help. i wanna turn my life around and actually experience my life to the fullest. It just feels like i’ve been wasting away in my dorm.
