Feeling lonely

I feel you. In the short term, one of the quickest ways is to take look at your interests. Maybe it's a certain type of Music or Sport or Activity. Whatever it is, join online communities about the topic like servers on discord or subreddits, because Competence breeds Confidence. This'll help your social anxiety for two reasons. Firstly, because you're knowledgable on a topic it'll be easier to talk about it and secondly because you won't have to show your face.
If you are serious on trying to fix your social anxiety permanently than you got to commit to doing some deep internal work on it. Using meditation will help you be more focused in the moment. Then everyday write down one thing you want to do every day to help build up your confidence with slight increases in difficulty and try to implement it. Hope this helps

The only effective way I’ve found to deal with social anxiety is cbt, one of the main things is gradually exposing yourself to the thing that’s making you anxious. CBT takes a lot from stoicism so maybe read Marcus Aurelius’s meditations to help clear your kind a bit

I’m homeschooled and the only friends I have are the ones from my old school that I left over a year ago. We aren’t close anymore and I see them maybe every few months.

I have pretty bad social anxiety and no hobbies so clubs wouldn’t be the best for me. I just feel like I’m wasting my teenage years being alone and having basically no social life.
Does anyone have any similar experiences? Any response would be appreciated
