Genuine friends?

I am 22 years old and have no friends! This means that I have no social life and feel forced to stay in bed. I am currently working part time (20 hours a week) but feel like its "all work and no fun".

I was wondering if people could suggest any ways to meet people, or events to attend to make new friends?

Hi,

Some things that have really helped me are club sports, volunteer work and youth groups. Is there anything like this in your area you could try? Think about what your hobbies and passions are and try and find a way of getting involved with people who share your interests. That's something that's really worked for me. 🙂 Start slow though, especially if it's something that will make you anxious.
