Feeling understimulated in my current life- want to try worldpaclers/workaways but scared if they are difficult to get- better to change my current job and move in with people that I can socialise better with?

Hey guys,

quite a vulnerable post. I am a 26 y/o woman who is feeling very understimulated in her current life, get very bored and struggle living at home and I am lonely in aspects. I don't mind my job and I was diagnosed with ADHD and my brain is running away with itself. I think I want to travel because I would love to meet people and love socialising. I was thinking about doing workaways but scared incase I don't receive any approvals, as it can be competitive and don't want to apply to any before I have left just to 'try it out' if I am not sure. I basically feel like I want to get a work exchange easily which sounds ignorant of me. I have a decent amount of money saved but I just doubt myself. I am meant to sign a lease with some people but I am not sure if I should travel a few months, see what the vibe is and then go home and move in with other people. The main fear comes from not getting a job either on workaway or when I come home, because I look like I am a job hopper. I want to travel to make friends but I am like, could I get a more stimulating job and move in with these girls and that will appease to me ? I am just very much an acts of service person and keep listening to so many opinions that I feel overwhelmed.

Any advice or shared experiences would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
