I live in Southern California. No I have not don a review of resources in my community nor contacted the social services department of my local hospital. I did not see a need for it. I have definitely not contacted churches as I am not a Christian. I am a humanist. No point in asking any medical person for assistance. They do not have the time nor the inclination. Thank you for your offer of help but Westchester county in New York is a long way from Riverside County in California.

From one anti-social woman to another, I will say that as an agnostic with atheist tendencies, if you were ever inclined on a crazy whim to look for cool people to hang out with, might I suggest the Unitarian Universalist congregation? They call it a "church", but they are humanists through and through. No dogma, no preaching, just community spreading good deeds and thoughts. I belonged when I lived back east and they have atheists as members. Unitarians are very cool people creating community and I did not feel unwelcome or that I had to change my personality.
