Take it slow! I've also found that being upfront and honest, for me, has always weeded out the one's i dont want in my life. If they aren't understanding of my conditions and okay with the fact that I need a while longer than others to build trust, they aren't the one's I want in my life

This isn’t for everyone, but I explain how my illnesses will impact our relationship pretty early on. Basically set expectations so they understand from the start and if they don’t think they can handle the challenges they can remove themselves from the friendship or relationship before it becomes too involved. Sadly some people cannot handle our symptoms and how they impact loved ones. You’d rather know that now than when you’ve invested time and energy into them. It’s hard for sure but will save so much heartache! I learned this lesson the hard way and trust me it’s for the best. Best of luck! If you want a friend who gets it without needing to explain anything message me any time, I’m here!!!

I can't make friends so I'm here for the advice as well.
