Does the loneliness get to you?

[dödsängel]

For some reason I don't really feel it. I haven't had any friends or anything of the sort for the last 4 years. The last year especially, I've barely talked to anyone. But I don't mind it. What I do feel is an excruciating boredom. Just constant, oppressive, boredom. Anyone else feel the same?

 

[Badatlove]

Yeah, lost a couple friends. The ones ive left little energy to socialize with prefer mostly be alone with mary jane

 

[Wyldfyre4948]

I spend most of my time alone talking to myself. Having conversations with ghosts because nobody is around to listen, and if anyone was here they wouldn't understand anyways.

i've been alone for 7 years ever since getting a brain injury back in early 2016 the dullness and boredom that follows this is a constant pain, i listen to music ever day usually the same tracks over and over again usually allday i also take drugs like weed and cocaine at least it alleviates the dullness and boredom somewhat only problem is limited funds i do smoke 7gram of weed a day sometime more like 10gram never less, my money doesn't last for more than 2 weeks so i have to spend 2 weeks a month normal with a fucking brain injury thats a constant state of discomfort, extreme boredom is a everyday occurrence, it be great to have some friends and a gf but thats not on the table

Loneliness was my problem even from the start

Yeah my situation isn't as bad as yours but I am just extremely bored
24/7 bored out of my mind
My situation is extremely mundane, my escape is maybe playing a video game or something idfk. All my school and work is online so I never see anyone. I was thinking of trying alcohol or something, never really drank before. But I got Adderall presc recently which I hope helps me feel more energy and less bored.

Ive lost 80% of my friends for the past year back to back in a row. The lonleniess from that almost made me end my life several times... but at the same time ive been constantly lonely for as long as i can remember... yes it still affects me to this day, but all i can really tell my self is "im used to it, and i shouldnt expect anything more."

I'm alone, but I'm not lonely. I have myself, and that's enough.

 

[ChronicPain23]

I have some limited contact with my parents and my grandmother, besides them no friends, no one. Over the years of isolation, I have become accustomed to such a life, I have come to terms. Somewhere inside I feel sad, but this is my fate, destiny.

 

[sserafim]

I'm bored all day everyday

 

[feverinjection]

I think it's a mixed feeling for me. Sometimes it can be pure loneliness, and other times im just really bored and depressed. Sort've numb, too

 

[EvisceratedJester]

Not really, I'm used to it. Even when I had friends I always felt lonely. Don't know why, but it's just this feeling that has persisted within me throughout most of my life. I could be surrounded by a group of people who claim to genuinely love me and I'd still feel just as lonely as I do now, as a friendless loser. I've grown to not mind the feeling that much. I mostly spend my time either online or talking to myself or daydreaming.

 

[iloverachel]

yes. some days its unbearable

 

[neverLoved]

It honestly depends whether I can cope and keep myself busy. I have spent years of my life locked up inside my room, and the only contact I had was online. It worked for a while but eventually I got bored and tired.

Now when I actually hang out with anyone I come back home and realize how lonely I actually am. I actually crave social interactions now, I crave building friendships and I crave finding someone which I can love and love me back. Unfortunately finding good friends or even a relationship seems like an impossible task for me, it might be because I come over too desperate, too nice and just boring. I am a people pleaser, and feel like it makes you lose authenticity.

I am very self aware about it and realize that the biggest reasons why I am like this is because I hate myself and have no confidence.

no loneliness never bothered me, i enjoy being alone

 

[locked*n*loaded]

Haven't had any friends for the past 20, 25 years. Lost all of my family over the past 6 years, which left me 100% alone. Yeah, the loneliness gets to me every single minute of every single day. How couldn't it? It would get to anyone. Wish (the loneliess) would just kill me faster. It's a slow, excruciating death. If it would, I wouldn't need to expedite my death by my own hand.

 

[Sprite_Geist]

No. What gets to me is not being able to be alone. The viscous cliques, the constant aggression, the false friendliness, the trampling over each other... there are many more reasons. Even in the presence of people who I get along with I still do not feel any connection, and I have not met a person who I considered a true, and close friend in a long time.

I want to escape from it all.
