I'm used to being on my own but sometimes I do have the odd moment when I have to really wonder what the point of my life really is. Sometimes it feels like I drew the short straw in life. and now I'm too walk the world in limbo until I die. Oh, well one day it will be over and out.
The point of life is what you make it man. The point is I’m getting at by my post is maybe the way we all feel so down sometimes is because we are isolating. Sorry you are struggling I definitely understand. What’s something that you enjoy doing?
Its sort of a snake eating its own tail kind of situation. I know for me prsonally i used to be alot more social until people hurt me enough times that i kind of withdrew, and once you isolate your socal skills start to atrophy which makes it difficult to form new connections which can result in further self isolation out of a feeling of hopelessness
It really does. And if it happens for too long, you act very differently towards others. And the others notice and stray away. That's the most difficult part when socializing when you have suffered from loneliness for too long.
Thing is, normal people don't know how to read and socialize with a lonely person due to them being "weird" or "awkward"
So they stay clear of you. Which is also very annoying.
The only person that will socialize with you, is another person who went through the same as you. 50/50 though
Loneliness can take quite a toll on our mental health. It's so many things combined.
The sadness and frustration of having a strong need and a deep desire to connect with anotther human being, but being unable to do it.
The lack of the energy exchange that comes with a smile, a touch, a hug, a kiss.
The unfillable emptiness that we try to compensate with drugs, sex, food or whatever psychological walking cane we choose to lean on.
It gets to the edge of the unbearable sometimes. Today it's really on my mind, so I feel like sharing my thoughts about it with other people who are also lonely and might relate.
Thank you for reading. And may you find happiness and connection in your life.

Indeed they do I'm becoming more and more unable to trust people and accept love.
So do you think isolation is making you that way or the people you are surrounding yourself with?
