Welcome to the community! Sorry to hear that you find it hard to make friends.
Do you have any hobbies/interests?
Let's say it's raining outside what's the first thing you would do to occupy yourself x
The site Meetup has come up in a few recent conversations to find local groups. You can also message people to let them know you're coming - so you could potentially mention that you find it hard to communicate and I'm sure people would then make the effort to overcome that (rather than thinking that you're being rude).
How are you? I came across this great article on Disability Horizons and it sounds like someone who is in a similar situation. Thought the advice given might be relevant.
