When having lonely moments, it is important to understand that it is just a feeling of loneliness that we experience though there are people around us. During those moments I like to journal my thoughts down and even pray about it.
Self care is very important.
Being alone makes me feel okay and at peace with myself. But I sometimes do get those feelings and thoughts. I think having personal boundaries when around people is very important. Just as being alone for most of the time is bad for one's mental health, even destroying your boundaries and being around with people and draing your energy with the wrong people is bad too. There needs to be a balance.
I have also realized that the feeling for wanting to be spending time alone helps me grow a lot. It is mostly because of the thoughts we hold against ourselves that stops us from doing what we want to do.
Thank you for posting😃. I found this reflection quite helpful.

When you have lonely moments is it because you're wanting to be alone?
Yes, usually I like to be alone to do things I really enjoy doing. Often there are so many ideas in my head that I want to explore.
How does being alone make you feel?
Being alone gives me peace and calm but occasionally I crave the company of someone to talk to.
I read that when we feel lonely we're not communicating something important to us. I can be alone and not feel lonely, and now if I do ever feel lonely, I communicate something important to me! With someone, somewhere! Whether it's a friend, or a post, or a message, or a chat, or a call, or talking to the dog - it doesn't matter how/where I communicate, just that I do. It really helps! And I don't feel lonely after communicating!

for us we like being alone at times as to us when alone we really not alone due to our faith as He with us always. we learned young to be alone is to be safe and can have peace even when everything around you crashing down
How does being alone make you feel?
for us we feel safe when alone find we need to have space at times just to be so a lot of the time when alone we at peace and within that a feeling of just listening to each other in our system
It makes me feel free
Yes my parents say “oH sO mUcH fOr fAmIlY tImE “ almost every time I leave the pool early ( every weekend we go to the neighborhood pool) but sometimes I feel like I need to have some fun with myself and just do some self care. sometimes I also feel like taking this time to reflect on myself ( if I have the brainpower to and is usually done in the shower) . my fav part is taking off my rly tight swimsuit , taking a warm shower and then changing in to my cozy nightclothes ( pjs are too hot for me so I just wear like a jersey and some sleeping shorts from pink) and also doing a good stretch routine
Genius is born in solitude.
