Dealing With Loneliness
Hey guys. I've been feeling really down lately at the hands of crippling loneliness. I have some wonderful friends, but I seem to always desire their undivided attention which is unrealistic and bizarre. I feel lonely all the time, and feel like utter garbage. How do you folks cope with loneliness? I think a few pointers for me to take on would be nice.
This might be an unhealthy solution, but I spend a lot of time (probably too much time) listening to YouTube videos, and that seems to help. And yeah I know how that feels, wanting someone every moment or else face loneliness...
These are some of the ways I cope up with loneliness
1. I read a lot of books, articles and write journals
2. I volunteer to help people in an NGO
3. I pray/meditate regularly
4. I play with kids and make them smile.
5. I talk to myself and do a self introsepction.
I never feel alone and left out even though I am lonely.
