How can I overcome feelings of exclusion?

It's tough to feel excluded. Have you identified specific situations where you feel this way?

Yes, mostly at social gatherings where I don't know many people.

That’s common. One approach is to prepare some conversation starters or questions to engage others.

What if I still feel left out even after trying to engage?

If that happens, it might help to focus on finding a smaller group or one-on-one interactions where you feel more comfortable.

Thanks! I’ll try that. Any tips for building confidence in those situations?

Absolutely! Practicing positive self-talk and reminding yourself of your strengths can boost your confidence.
