Looking for supportive and knowledgeable Muslim friends in Dubai

Salam everyone! I’m a 23-year-old Muslim guy living in Dubai. I’ve been dealing with anxiety, brain fog, loneliness, and some personal struggles that I find hard to talk about. I really want to strengthen my iman and build a closer bond with Allah, but I’m finding it tough to stay consistent with my prayers and let go of some bad habits. I’m reaching out to see if anyone can point me to reliable Islamic resources, support circles, or even a good scholar in Dubai who tackles these kinds of issues gently and with understanding. I’d really appreciate any advice, and please remember me in your du’as. May Allah guide us all and keep us firm on the deen. Ameen.

May Allah grant you shifa and keep you steadfast. I'm not in Dubai, but I know Sheikh Wael Ibrahim online-he talks a lot about overcoming bad habits gently.

Dude, I live in Dubai too! Hit me up if you want to grab coffee sometime, no pressure. Being alone makes everything worse. Will remember you in my du'as inshaAllah.

Salam bro, I feel you. I was in a similar spot a few years ago. What helped me was joining a local halaqah-the brothers there became like family. May Allah make it easy for you, ameen.

Respect for reaching out, it's not easy. Start small with one prayer at a time, don't overwhelm yourself. This video series by Ustadh Ali Hammuda on anxiety really helped me.
