So I don't know where to start. But I've been afraid of people (social contacts) my entire life. And I'm so done with it, but I don't know how to fix it... ~Dakota

@antisocialhorse
I found that reading a book can help with the loneliness, at least in the short term.

I'm the same way, and am struggling a bit with that myself too; I think socializing is a thing that you can get better at by practicing, and I'm trying to find small steps to take before jumping straight into serious conversation with strangers.

Online chatrooms I think are a good low-risk place to experiment with different chatting styles and meet people behind the safety of a computer screen so you can get used to talking before actually "talking" with people.
