      Get out of the house. Join some group activities. Enrich yourself. Make some friends.

      If you are looking for a more specific example then try yoga or an exercise group like cycling. These kind of activities signal that you are looking to improve yourself and that is always a plus. Just remember not to leer and be polite.

          I recommend not calling someone you exchanged two comments with neurotypical. It’s quite rude and in this case outright wrong.

          Since we are talking in circles refer to my first statement.

          Ask someone out for coffee. (In case you are wondering the unwritten first rule is introduce yourself)

          If you have someone like a therapist/counselor/psychologist. I reccomend you work with them to smooth your edges.

            You’re upset that other person is jumping to conclusions about you, yet you jumped to conclusions about the thread OP and something burger not having the ability to come up with the advice you doled out.

            Your responses implied that they needed was some rudimentary social knowledge when they’re trying to explain that the loneliness epidemic is more nuanced than the meme portrayed it as.

            Tbh your advice was pretty typical

            Again: who? That part is always missing. “Talk to people!” and say what? I can’t go to a random person and ask them what their favorite color is. How do I pick a person and what do I tell them? This question is seemingly impossible to answer, as no one ever gave me one.

            If you have someone like a therapist/counselor/psychologist.

            I don’t believe in pseudo-science. Those people can’t do anything. They are not real doctors. They will not cure my autism. Plus, they are expensive and not reimbursed by social security (this is how you know it’s a scam, unlike actual medical professionals).

              Have a good day. I don’t think I can achieve anything here over text.

              Therapy and psychology is valid. There are plenty of providers that operate with a sliding scale and if you income is what I assume you will be free/low cost case.

              You don’t need to “cure” your autism. You just need to identify the parts of you that are more abrasive and manage them.

              I hope you find what you are looking for, or at the least find someone to help you work on yourself.
