no one is saying you can't still get support from them, only that maybe part of this is the inner conflict - wanting to stay AND wanting to try it on your own... that's a confusing space to be in, i know from experience... and that inner confusion can also be very taxing.
no one here can tell you what to do ultimately, because it's your life and your decision. and if you are strictly wanting advice about socializing, it may not be appropriate for us to encourage you to launch into the world as a (more) independent adult. so i am doing my best to focus on what you asked for, but i do think the launching stuff is part of this.
if you don't enjoy socializing, why bother? is there some requirement to be around people? oh... if you are very close to your family, there is a good chance you meet most of your genuine social needs with family members. naturally this would make you less motivated to socialize, and frankly, living away from them would help IF this is part of the situation.
