Looking for help in adjusting a core belief

...See more Hello all, I'm new to 7 Cups so please help me if this not an appropriate question. I have spent my lifetime with a deep core belief that "I am alone". Not "I feel alone" or a basic sense of loneliness, but the inner message of being desperately alone. To compound and reinforce this feeling/belief I don't connect well with others. I have ADHD and so I may have social issues because of that... But my question to the group is, what are ways to meet people and begin to create connections. But I think more importantly I want to work on the Core Belief itself within me and adjust the feeling. It is so intense that when I challenge it to myself I meet stanch and hard resistance to any suggestion otherwise... Basically I "yes, but..." myself. I feel like there is a core issue, but I think it is from infancy and not being able to form attachment with my parents. I was cared for, but not cared about... So I'm just looking for thoughts, ideas, suggestions. I'm hoping something sits with be in a resinant way. I'm 56 and I'd really like to make 2 or 3 real friends my age to continue exploring life with. It would be really awesome if one of them because a life partner, but I'll take close friends to start with... Thanks, Sarah
