Getting healthy is a long road. Don't try to do it all at once. You know...baby steps. Just one or two a day can make a big difference.
First off I would recommend finding a good therapist. If you really can't do the face to face to start there are therapists who do phone appointments. Find someone sympathetic, and with empathy. I know the UK isn't so big on the mental health concept (stiff upper lip and all, unless things have changed a lot since I was last there) so it may take some time and patience. But try and just set one small goal a day and stick to it. Like make one phone call to a therapist each day to find out their approach and background. Then when that gets comfortable (or maybe I should say manageable) ad another small goal. Build up to the big stuff with the help of a good support group. Reaching out is a huge first step. Good for you!!!!

change this
meet some sttranger first and talk to them about the weather
I used to have a dog when we walked all we did was talk to people.
you can overcome this easy
adjust your lifestyle
not an issue
people love to talk and meet you
then you can be more comfortable with the close folks

You should speak to your doctor and they will be happy to make you meet people and have a happy life.

YOU are your own best friend, so start rebuilding that relationship and the rest will work out.
