What do you do when you feel alone?

Sometimes when I feel alone I rather listen to a very loud music. If not I'm watching a video on YouTube to make the time runs faster than doing nothing. Keeping myself busy really helps me to feel better to forget the feelings that I have because maybe tomorrow I'm going to feel better.

I actually really enjoy my alone time, and quite frankly do not get near enough of it. I like playing my guitar and making and recording music. I like writing. I do occasionally get sucked into YouTube a bit. It does not take much to entertain myself, so I have plenty of things to do.

I also like to be alone because i'm an introvert but there are times before that I felt that I'm alone, what I mean is. I felt that I'm the only one and no one is there for me or no one believes me.

@tech40 I know exactly what you mean. I am an introvert too. It's a wonder, BEING an introvert, that I am so successful in sales, but I am also able to put on a good act and pretend to be an extrovert where there is money to be made I guess. I have my wife, and I always enjoy her company. But I do need time to myself FROM her as well. And I cherish that time alone as much as I enjoy my time with her. I do know that before I got married, I did feel alone quite a lot, and that was not entirely a good thing for me. Even introverts need company sometimes.

@porwest It is one of the best with introvert, we can focus on what we're doing than going to a party with extroverts I have my girlfriend too and she accompany me every time but there are still time that we're looking a time for ourselves. Haha! Indeed. Even though we like to be alone, there are still sometimes that we need a break from being alone and be friendly with others

If it's just me in the house, I catch up on sleep. Or watch my Netflix/Hulu series that my husband cannot bear to watch. Oddly enough, I seem to get a lot of work done when I am alone.

@tech40 Anything but horror. He can do psychological thriller, but he does not like the supernaturals or paranormal, and gore.

I grew up in a home with a lot of siblings. Instead of feeling alone I was always trying to find a way to be alone. When I got married and started having my kids, it was the same thing. Now I live with my kids and it's the same thing. I don't ever feel alone so I don't know what I would do.

I'm sorry and I understand your situation about it. How about staying inside your room? Does it work before? When I think the only time you can be alone is when they're sleeping

For me only 2 options, sleeping or watching something entertaining. But normally, I sleep.

Sleeping well to unwind our mind from stress, it's a good thing

Depending on how I feel. If I feel down, I listen to music that cheers me up, on the other hand I am not feeling down, I turn on the TV and check my phone.

It is good that we are looking for alternative ways to entertain ourselves
