Can I just pay someone with real event planning and social skills to just include me in whatever they’re doing? It would be way better for my mental health than therapy.
Edit: not even just for me personally either. Like as a community thing. I pay my portion and the person planning all this uses it to rent a space and pay for catering or whatever and keeps a list of all of us and tries to get us all out of the house.
Pay yourself.
Get an old fashioned wall calendar and write in all the social events you can attend each month. Make a check mark on the ones you actually go to. At the end of the year count them up and give yourself $10.00 for each one attended.
