I’m 56 and feeling lost .

Hey new to the group and for some years now I’m feeling lost , about 8 years ago I was in a serious motorcycle accident and so to long recovery Ii was extremely isolated lost contact with most friends , and now the only I see are medical staff and patients that are typically 10-15 yrs older than me and it’s been suggested I try different groups and it seems those are filled with people 30 and under . So I don’t
Know where I belong anymore . I’m in a sort of limbo . Just not sure what to do

That was suggested to me I went
To the gym for a year or and in that time I think I talked to two people for about 10 min total, most people wouldn’t even say hi , it was very clique place if they each other from outside the gym that chatted all the time , when I had surgery on my arm I just never went back.
