I want friends

I have no friends, and I would like some... I can be very closed off but that's just what I've become accustomed to. I don't really socialise/have social media... Basically I just feel alone, and I don't feel like I can connect to anyone. Any advice, this is literally my last stop lol 😂

I'm going through a similar thing... like I used to have a close group of friends in my year but one of them started being a b**** to me (she basically triggered a bunch of mental health issues and didn't care/apologise lol) , and everyone else didn't want to start anything by standing up to her, so it made me realise that none of them were truly my close friends to begin with...

Anyway, I've got no friends in my year now and I feel extremely lonely. I've got some friends in the year below, but it's not really the same because you often don't share the same experiences...
This is advice for me as much as it's advice for you, but maybe going to clubs or societies would be a good idea? Or just talking more to people in your classes? If you've got a common room or area where people hang out in your school, you could just try and start some conversations. You don't necessarily need super close cliquey friends to feel less lonely (I've learnt this the hard way), but I'm sure there are people who have similar interests to you who you can befriend.

Learn to love yourself and enjoy being with yourself. I would much rather be in your positions than have a load of fake friends. Remember 1 real friend is better than a 1000 fake ones. And that 1 real friend you have can be you.

Same here. Got no friends at all and feel suicidal.
