How do I cope with loneliness?

[Lost Magic]

do you work/study in a social environment? for me usually that makes the social need mostly go away and i can appreciate thing like

more.

ive been a shut-in for a while so clearly that is not the case with me lol. and by how to cope with loneliness... i dont know if there is a very good, down to earth answer for people who have difficult means of cultivating strong connections (what actually makes someone feel the unbearable alienation and loneliness). in theory we'd have our families and maybe some close people but clearly nowadays thats increasingly more difficult.

perhaps substances are the better way or just trying to meet likeminded people irl somewhere or even online (really). i used to feel better and not in any way lonely when i had some really close online friends i shared a lot with. but i always get to a point where i break down because of irl things and just isolate in my shell again so ive lost dozens of friendships i wish i hadnt.

maybe one day we'll have a good pill for that! meanwhile drugs it is... or coping with hobbies or things like videogames, but imo after a certain while you lose some capacity to do this, especially if youve been lonely for a good time.

a pet, like a dog, is a good idea too and something im really close to experimenting out. some guys i know got dogs when in dark places and it helped them immensely. if i had one he'd sleep in my room because im a needy fuck

I absolutely adore animals (much more than people). I don't have one now because I don't want them to be burdened when I leave. When I was younger I had a few dogs and cats. They were beautiful creatures and so much fun. One little dog I had used to sleep on top of my feet while under the covers haha. It was so cute. Yeah, I miss having pets. They are a trip.

Having lost my love and my 2 best friends around the same time,i have been lonely but haven't found a way of coping with the loneliness as a result of the loss of my love.I don't think it's something fixable.
Regarding my friends i just had to numb the pain of being abandoned by them at my worst times by considering it a blessing in disguise.

i wouldn't say i have managed it,i'm just swimming in my loneliness waiting for the day when i will catch my bus and end the pain,sadness and suffering.As for the fake friends who deserted me when i needed them the most,i'm glad they did it because i'll die knowing no one will shed fake tears when i'm gone.
