You join these organizations for life. If you drop out now, you might regret that decision for a long, long time. You never know when your affiliation might come in handy.

That said, if your health is up to it, try to take some sort of project on, join some committees, join some sort of organized activities with other members which necessitate you being in smaller groups. Sometimes, you have to put yourself out there like that to make friends. No matter how well new member programs are put together, they can't succeed without some significant work on the part of the new members to become familiar with the organization.

I can see where it'd be tough with a pledge class of that size, but if you put yourself out there a little bit, somehow, I think you'll manage.
