Loneliness and you.

[Farotsu]

Not dealing with it too well. Mainly I just make sure to keep myself busy with gaming, work and movies until I'm so tired that as soon as my head hits the pillow I pass out. That way I don't have to think about anything I don't want to think about. It is quite hard regardless. No other way around it though I guess since I just can't trust people enough anymore to befriend any of them. Like one wise man once said, People are shit.

I game or watch films. However I personally prefer meeting up with friends or talking to people that I like. I mean when I'm lonely I surround myself with people I like. They cheer me up.

How did I miss Nagisa drinking alcohol?!

On topic: I deal with loneliness by either listening/playing to music, reading, or games.

 

[CarlMin]

How do I cope with it? I usually call a friend. You know, just to talk about nothing.

 

[brainslurper]

masturbation....gratuitous amounts of it lol.

okay maybe not but i just learned to deal with it and think "One day...it might get better"

A rather optimistic outlook on the future?

No. A realistic outlook. Life can't suck always. There's always a bright spot on the horizon. Even if i die trying to find it it will still be there.

The issue is what you would genuinely define as a "bright spot".

 

[Shakomaru]

I kinda just wait it out until something happens

 

[GiglameshSoulEater]

I just don't care.

I ain't no social butterfly.

 

[Troublesome Lagomorph]

I can't say that loneliness bothers me, to be honest. It's like an old friend. You may not see them for a long time, but when you do it feels like nothing's changed and you haven't been apart at all.

 

[Hollock]

When I'm really lonely I often wind up here and hope for replies about what amazing points I make. -_-;
But I mostly I try to think maybe things will be better later.

 

[6unn3r]

I have a job that lets me meet lots of people...not exactly making friends but it fills the void a little bit.

 

[Nightvalien]

Meh.

 

[Kwaren]

Ponies. I quit being lonely after I met my girlfriend in a MLP chatroom.

 

[Razorin Faust]

First step: Choosing a item in my place that definately need to lear how to fly, And make it fly.
Second step: Going out, taking a walk, phoning my friend and ask them to go somewhere.
Third step: Get drunk.
Fourth step: Waking up still wasted, look at the debris of afformentioned item, think of cleaning up.
Fifth step: Choosing to not giving a fuck about the item, make some coffee, log onto a game.

Never had any depression that survived past the 4th step.

?If you are lonely when you're alone, you are in bad company?.
-Jean-Paul Sartre

Quoting a quote inside a quote.
META
But true.
Sartre was, and is, dead on the mark.

 

[boag]

Sex, lots and lots of sex.

its the best cure for loneliness, specially if they are twins that love sharing.

 

[Spygon]

When you realise your alone then its just you and yourself so i spend the time becoming the person i want to be.It has worked so well i am the person i want to be and know most of the skill i have wanted to learn.

If you are happy with who you are people opinions mean nothing

 

[Vangaurd227]

I write music...it really helps for both my loneliness and my depression(altho watching mlp helps aswell )

 

[Omega 380]

I stop thinking about it and have fun on my own instead. i.e. hang out on the internet, read a book, play games or practice my instruments. Same as I do every day. I am quite comfortable with my own company.
That's not to say I don't have breakdowns every now and then when I realize my friends are out partying and generally being social people, and it dawns on me again how much of a lonely person I am and how generally unfit I am to be around other people for extended periods of time. But I normally break out of that after ingesting a suitable amount of sugar or caffeine.

?If you are lonely when you're alone, you are in bad company?.
-Jean-Paul Sartre

Basically, I don't like being around other people, but it's in my nature as a human to wish to be around other people, so it's sort of a battle between my conscious mind that wants to be alone and my instincts which make me feel bad for being alone.

Same thing here, well except for the instrument part. And the day goes by so quick that i don't really think about it.

 

[Jake0fTrades]

Lonely is not a medical condition or status, it is a state of mind. I'm too busy learning Shakespeare, looking up new music, and watching movies to be lonely.

If it's a problem, find what's causing your loneliness, and fix it.


I find this song very relaxing.

 

[Tsun Tzu]

Gaming. Writing. Reading. Those are the big three.

Also, touching myself, which is a close 4th. That or the internet.
