i have been battling addiction since i was 15 & never really worked hard my whole life i was a loser eating shit for years and years i had friends from hs but as soon as I decided to get sober I pretty much lost all of them since all we really had in common was getting high. These past 5 months i have been lifting with a trainer i have never been this ripped in my life, i have been staying sober, i quit my video game addiction as well, started reading books. My head has never been this clear in a long time i feel GREAT, but i have one problem.. i have 0 friends. I have been trying to reconnect with my best friend from kindergarten through middle school and hs but in hs we kind of drifted away a little since we both left to different schools and these past couple of months we have been talking and we hung out a couple of times but i can see he has a social circle and i am basically like the last person he probably wants to chill with and this past month i have hit him up multiple times but he always gives me some bs excuse and then i see on snapchat he’s hanging out doing shit with the dudes he went to hs with. It kind of blows because i have never felt this good in my entire life but i still have this void thats eating me up. I am going to go back to college to get a degree in CS (I’m 23) so by the time I’m 28 i can move out of my moms house and get a job and live on my own so i do have a plan but it just sucks knowing i have no friends whatsoever. Do i just keep sticking to my purpose.. lift, school, get a job, and then try and make friends after? I can’t lie I’m pretty fucking lonely and have that FOMO feeling but i also have never felt this good in my life mentally. Wtf do i do?
