What could ever be your best option to fight loneliness that is tangled with depression? Is it to welcome that your lonely and depressed or to fight it and just keep yourself busy and use many things to hide your true emotions?

That is a easy question and a hard question. I have been depressed and lonely in my life. Now although there are times I feel a bit down I never feel lonely. I think knowing I have Jesus in my life I never feel alone but I do still feel down sometimes when I am not happy with myself. I use to be both lonely and depressed. I found that although I had to soul search to find my reasons for the way I was I also had to keep myself busy as not to sit in that depression. I really had to change somethings about myself and one of those changes was to keep myself fairly busy. Meaning just be busy doing normal things like housework, shopping, reading or making something creative. While doing that I did some soul searching and said to myself so what if I am not as smart and as pretty as alot of people are? So what who cares because there are lots of people like me and I will be happy being me. In order to do that I had to stop looking at other people and wishing I could be more like them. Oh there was alot of things I had to change but now I am okay being me and when I am down it is usually because I am spending to much time doing nothing and then beating myself up about it. The loneliness went when I acepted Jesus as Lord of my life so I always know I have a friend in my life so I can't take credit for working on that.

Get yourself a ho in order to fight loneliness. You don't actually have to fight it. You don't need to struggle to get away from it if you think about it. Just go out there and have fun with friends and family or whoever you have.

I would surely like to face it and try to overcome instead of just escaping it for now.... Hiding true emotions is just like escaping the reality....
