Loneliness Support Group
Loneliness is an emotional state in which a person experiences a powerful feeling of emptiness and isolation. Loneliness is more than the feeling of wanting company or wanting to do something with another person. Loneliness is a feeling of being cut off, disconnected and alienated from other people.

I have been reminded that I need to learn how to spend some more time by myself and start loving myself. What do you guys enjoy doing when you are alone? I like going for walks/hikes and doing biking, but the weather is Canada is like -20 C right now so it's freezing to even think about it. I end up just playing mindless computer games... I want to start working out and getting into better shape, but I haven't found a workout I really enjoy. Suggestions?

So mad at Xfinity! They're trying to charge me $115 per month for the same service I had been paying $50 the last four years. I took the equipment to UPS for shipping and cancelled my subscription today! Next door was a cookie shop called Crumbl. I had heard of it before but never went in until today. I don't need one more sugar fix, but maybe it will help with my sad) grieving heart....$15...

I know this is stupid, but after not being able to find a job after graduation for almost two years, I ended up just taking an online teaching job because I couldn't find anything in my field. I was trying to get out of teaching and I feel so devastated. I felt this crushing feeling when I signed the paperwork and when I was in the meetings. I know that sounds so dramatic but it is how I felt. It...


Winter or summer, reading is always wonderful.
If it's not too OCD of me, I make a distinction between loving myself and treating myself.
To treat myself, the main thing I did was to eat one of my favorite foods while watching a favorite TV show. But I can't do that anymore. When I could afford it, I went out to a movie or would buy myself something nice. Can't really do that anymore, either. So now I'm down to reading, working on puzzles, spending time on my computer, listening to favorite music, walks in the park, and hot baths.
What do I do to love myself? I don't give up. I try to think positive and keep hope in my heart. When I make a mistake, I try not to beat myself up about it. I try to remember that I am a valuable, worthwhile person. I try to keep learning new things. I try to look after my health. To me, that's the essence of how to love yourself.
Sorry, that didnt really help you. I read alot. I like to learn things so I research and read alot. My faith is also something I can enjoy doing when I am alone and it helps me to better understand myself and life better. I look for ways to grow and improve. A proactive approach works great for me, but I watch to insure I dont spend too much time alone. That can be harmful. Best to you.
But if you are looking for hobbies and such.....well, I don't have any. But I have started eating way more healthy, I go to my acupuncture regular, which has helped me take less toxic medications. I listen to myself, my body, not "authoritative" doctors. I still have my faith in God, and that helps me to be more peaceful and hopeful.
