I am by no means a professional, and I have no clue what it really feels like to be you. So, I'm just going to offer advice from personal experience from back in my really low periods - I hope this helps!

Don't stop trying new things. You don't have to do anything crazy out of your comfort zone. But try to think of something "new" to try everyday. I could be a new type of food, or workout, listening to a new song/band or it could be saying hello/smiling at someone in the street. Give yourself smaller reachable goals. If you don't achieve one, that's ok, just be sure to try again tomorrow.

The loneliness can be really intense, but trying to form long standing relationships is extremely hard when you're fighting yourself. Do not give up on the idea, but look inward. If you're feeling like you have no friends because their is something wrong with you, consider what you want to do to improve yourself and your mindset. Thought distortions can be so difficult to cope with, but take the time to process it and then move on to your next mini goal. Things will change over time, and you will find yourself in a better place. When you do, you'll realise that you are the one who managed to get yourself there. You can do anything!
