Try doing whatever it is you need to do (not sure from your posting) physically with other people doing the same thing.
I’m blind and live in Northeast Arkansas and have no friends and the only part of this that seems like it should be easy is getting over the anxiety that prevents me from walking to the bus stop (I still haven’t done this. I’ve spoken to DSB about it but have no idea if anything will come of this). And my social skills are only technically extant.
I did try something last year where I talked to someone on Skype between us both trying pomodoros and such. I only lasted about a week.
For what it’s worth, when I first started trying to improve my social skills, I spent a fair amount of time chatting with strangers at bus stops. I guess the less wrong study hall is probably not as useful for pomodoros if you can’t see (since I don’t think people usually actually talk much).
Speaking of, I should probably try pomodoros again :) I’ve also failed to adopt them usefully the last couple times
