Anyone else struggling with Loneliness?
Any genuine advice?
Its gotten to the point that I'm so alone I now struggle to interact with others, let alone maintain the energy to uphold a friendship or conversation. I want to make friends again but I don't really know how to anymore...
So yeah, is there anyone else on here struggling with that same problem? Or anyone whose gotten out of that rut with some genuine advice? This probably isn't the right place to post it but D2 is the only game I play and interact with consistently so...idk.
Cheers!

I'm also struggling with this a lot, as someone who is usually pretty shy and sedentary, and doesn't leave the house very often. Like other people have said, you gotta put yourself out there. It's kinda unfortunate for people like us but you have to make the effort to go and talk to people. Obviously that's hard right now with all that's going on though. Since you play D2, maybe try and find a small, active clan with a discord server where you can all chat together? (bigger clan or D2 community discords are fine too but I tend to avoid em because they're kinda intimidating and feel like glorified LFGs more than an actual community most of the time.) You could also join community discord servers for your other hobbies. Again, the bottom line though is that you have to put in the effort. You gotta make yourself seem interesting, jump into conversations with people, etcetera.

3 RespuestasI blame the internet. It’s ruining the ability to actually connect with another human being. Unplug and go be yourself. Don’t try to fit in, being your own uniqueness to the social table. You’ll find some friends. :) [spoiler]Sorry, all out of salt.[/spoiler]

13 RespuestasFirst of all, it takes someone with guts to share something like that on any platform in any way. But you speak for a silent nation. What I’m about to say is very unpopular, and it will likely be shredded up and down but that’s ok with me, because it’s the truth. Eventually, all people will either die or be just as lonely as you are if not worse. Do you know a senior adult? Everyone you make a relationship with in your life will eventually die. Or you will first. This is the reality. BUT that’s not the end of the story. There is someone who offers you everlasting life, and His name is Jesus. Please don’t stop reading here. He died so that you wouldn’t have to ever be lonely again, because he loves you personally. Even though Hes a perfect God and we’ve all fallen short of who He is, He came to earth to make a way for us to live forever with Him and all those who accept Him (Romans 6:23). The true God did what we could never do ourselves: He saved us from our dying and lonely condition and restored us to Himself. All you have to do is accept the work He has already done. Believe in the Lord Jesus and you will not only be saved, you’ll be given the friend or the father you never had. And let me just tell you, going to a healthy church will absolutely surround you with people who love and support you. Although I in no way ignore the reality that many churches are unwelcoming and do not share the love of Jesus as they should. That is why I say “healthy” church. But again...the church part won’t do squat in the end if you don’t know Jesus. I believe this is the truth. What you do with it is up to you my friend. In love...

1 RespuestaA friend dragged me out of my hovel to a comic book/game store and introduced me to table top gaming. These places usually have various events every day and night for trading card games and the like, but they're also a meet up and hang out place for folks looking for others to play stuff like Warhammer 40k, Dungeons & Dragons, and other nerd stuffs. It really helped me with my depression and social anxiety! Disclaimer: Magic the Gathering and Warhammer 40k are very expensive hobbies. Dungeons & Dragons just costs a set of gaming dice

I will tell you this, you aren't alone in your feelings and you are not the only one that is going through this. I am a college student and for both of my semesters I have had to sit alone inside of a small grey cube and do work and study for hours on end. I found the best way to deal with this was to take frequent walks, exercise, and do work at other locations. Don't force yourself to make new friends as opposed to just going with the flow for a bit. (if you really want a friend or anyone really bumble friends is a good app and tinder is okay but say that you are JUST looking for friends not a hookup/relationship). If you have schoolwork, do it somewhere else than your home/do it in a different spot. I wish you luck in pushing yourself. [spoiler]Keep on keepin on[/spoiler]

1 RespuestaI struggle with loneliness some as well. Not as bad but I understand what you mean. Some advice? Get a help person (I forget their name) I guess.[spoiler]licks finger [/spoiler]

1 RespuestaBottom line is you have to break habits and push out of your comfort zone. You’re going to have to push yourself to interact with people more often. Invite them out places, go to parties and things, spark up conversation, pretend to be interested in what they have to say and what they do outside of work etc. You going to have to feel uncomfortable sometimes. You’re going to have to feel awkward sometimes. You’re going to have to do things you don’t want to do sometimes. But if it was easy you would have done it already.

I'm getting out of that rut myself; slowly, but surely. What I did was try to reconnect with any friends I still had contact with. Results have been mixed but hearing from them again has helped me a bit.

Editado por Swiftlock: 4/26/2021 4:40:03 AMGo out for a walk every once in a while and say hi to people passing by. If they have a cool shirt with a TV show/video game/band you know, say you like their shirt. If a girl has a nice outfit or a good haircut, say it looks nice on her. You will be amazed how often people react positively to compliments. They lead to easy, effortless ways to engage in small talk, which paves the way for conversations and making acquaintances + friends.

Editado por gracklepod: 4/26/2021 3:35:09 PMDude. If you are willing to venture out of the gaming space, check meetup.com. there you will find lots of different groups of people with common interests whatever they may be. Hiking, yoga, motorcycle riding , music jams, whatever. . .in your area. It's an opportunity to get out of a rut or comfort zone.

2 RespuestasI have the opposite problem. No, not because I have friends. I just hear voices. Lotsa voices. Sometimes screaming. 👁👄👁

I used to have only one friend at school from the years 1-6 But then in high-school people were a bit more chill and I got a group going of like 3 to 5. Depending on your age it all comes with time, the mosy important thing is if you're happy with yourself, before that getting friends will be hard.

Not really, after a while you become addicted to it. Peace and quiet over unneeded drama.

Get a pet. One that is small, fluffy and sits on your face just to get you out of bed and feed them works best. [spoiler] HAIL HYDRA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!![/spoiler]

1 RespuestaYour cool man, it’s fine to vent here. You definitely don’t want to get stuck in that hole. I’d say work on improving yourself and your social skills. And when you think your ready, look for people who share something in common with you! Whether it’s people who play the same vidya game as you or someone who just enjoys your company. There’s no one way to be less lonely, especially disassociated loneliness, but I believe you can do it my dude.

This is what helped me. Idk you’re situation or circumstances so it might not help, but I hope it does. I never really had to much interest in going out until I heard what others were doing and thinking I could’ve had fun too. What helped me is to push myself to be more active and organize get togethers and things with my friends and show interest in hanging out. Don’t invite yourself but at least try and be involved. Try to become closer with people

1 RespuestaI'm sorry you feel that way, I can relate. The thing is, I can tell you're not alone and that a lot of us feel that way, but it won't really help. I honestly don't know what will help, still hasn't figured that out myself, but I truly hope you feel better soon and be able to find meaningful company.
