Loneliness Support Group

Loneliness is an emotional state in which a person experiences a powerful feeling of emptiness and isolation.

Sometimes the sanest person to talk to is yourself, it brings clarity

i understand loneliness, if you look at its definition, its the craving to be with someone when your alone. so since you have people in your life and you prefer to be alone can you have loneliness ? possibly is you crave to be with someone you dont have? if you never go out you never calm that loneliness. but then again if thats not the case and you choose to be alone you choose to be lonely or your not lonely its something else. maybe you want to be loved? which can feel like loneliness. to find that again you must meet others , and be with others . but suppose for argument you are lonely, and thats your choice there are hermits that are plenty lonely but prefer to be alone and put up with their loneliness. so which one are you?

I work in the middle east , have family here with me but feel so lonely myself, Some days are bad, but I get through it. I try to always keep busy, and take walks. Hope you feel better

Hey I hear you. I have people in my life too, but I somehow manage to mess up friendships. Loneliness is horrible, the only way I deal with it is to do what Bobusaf81 said, is to keep busy so you don't think about it. That's hard to, because if you're constantly on the go, then it stresses you out!! I don't know if all could be fixed, my only suggestion is to try to accept it. I did accept it, actually I got used to it. I feel a little better.

I am lonely and i have family i can call in another city but i dont want to talk to them. Its depression when you dont want to talk or be around anyone. I hope you feel better. Hugs

I've been reading some books on introverts and extroverts that may help you. Look up the author of quiet power.

I haven't said any words to any person in 4 days. It sucks when you mean nothing to everyone.
I don't talk to myself but I write journals but there full of complaing so I probaly need to stop writing them.
Maybe loneliness is safer?
