FM, I did see a few local hiking clubs at meetup.com but to be honest I need a friend who forces me out the door to do stuff. When I get home I'm fine but after a couple of hours I'm bored out of mind and the quietness of the house starts to weigh me down.
We have to be a friend to ourselves and force ourselves out of our comfort zone. If don't make new hiking friends, I won't have anyone to share that with. So part of my self care is making that happen. I'm finding the nights that the children are away to be very difficult. I'm trying to plan things in advance. I'm in faking it until I make it mode. Sometimes I can't even pull off faking it. I know how hard it is...
