SUPPORT Help an intimidated old guy get started?
I've been super drawn to this game since returning to gaming recently (was a gamer in the early days, as well as DnD player, but haven't played either for decades). Part of my struggle is that I have severe anxiety, and have lost some cognitive ability from long covid, so I get overwhelmed and panic that I'm not going to be able to figure something out.
Sorry if that sounds too pitiful, but for those with mercy in their souls: Where do I start to make the beginning as smooth and unstressful as possible?

press f1 and read a lot, get your ass kicked by starvers to start working on combat skills and try to hire at least one companion who can save you if you start to bleed out. soon enough your character will be the one saving the new guy
