I feel a little bad for asking for help again…

So I need to do something. I have no idea what though. So these are things to consider for me:

  • I prefer something regular and scheduled. My Autism needs consistency, but my ADHD makes it really hard to establish and maintain.
  • I need to get out of my home. I am withering here
  • some (predictable) social interaction is okay. If it is too much I probably won’t be able to keep up. I’d prefer something with a low upfront social cost (honestly the idea of being introduced to a new group feels overwhelming)
  • I prefer a somewhat sensory friendly environment (for example the music in a gym would be really really stressful)

I would like to know what kinds of things you found in your lives that worked. Thanks!

    Learn an instrument and join a local community band/orchestra. If you’re near a big city you likely have dozens of groups to pick from. I play the Trombone which is nice because I get to sit in the back and observe and the section is small so theres only as much social interaction as I want.
