Yeah, I really hear you - I'm so sick of the isolation, and the inertia in finding new people. It's too easy to hide under the safety blanket of maintaining little social interaction without some external change imo. I reckon the move and your trip home will really help you, especially that sense of connection and feeling wanted from healthy family members. It's why I'm pondering taking a break from Melbourne to live interstate near family I like for a while, not that they'd be my be all and end all, but a bit more of a solid part of my life routine. Someone you can go round to for a cuppa any time, do stuff for them and vice versa, follows up on what you've been doing in life, someone to talk about the latest change in your neighbourhood, a sense of home...

E: I'm just into s2 e2 of Mr Inbetween and still loving it. It hits a great balance of dark drama, quietly moving characters, and lighthearted/slice of life.
