Loneliness

Loneliness

"If I'm such a legend, then why am I so lonely? Let me tell you, legends are all very well if you've got somebody around who loves you."

"Loneliness and the feeling of being unwanted is the most terrible poverty."


Loneliness is a very powerful emotion. It can lead to depression, illness, even suicide. Although it may often hit the old, sick or handicapped people, it is very common among young people too. Why?

[size=6] Yes! You may need to work hard though! Here are some ideas to think about[/size]:

Remember, you are not the only one to feel this way - perhaps 25% of the people around you feel the same. So make the first step!

Do you have an interest or hobby? Find a group or society with this interest and join it.

Even in a stable long-term relationship or marriage, you should still not expect your partner to meet all of your emotional needs. They should certainly meet many of your needs, because your partner should be your best friend. But you should also have a network of good relationships with other friends, giving and taking help and support.

It can be easy to live out our lives through the imaginary relationships in films, TV, books, or even arm-length relationships on the Internet. These aren't real! TV and film characters do not act and talk like real people! It is an imaginary world, very different from the real one. Live in the real world!

To be wanted and needed, is a big answer to loneliness. Is there any way you can help other people? Can you volunteer to do something? Hospital visiting, visiting old people, assist an advice centre, an inner city help program - the list is endless. Or just learn to be a listening person who can understand how other people feel, and help them. In helping other people, we find friends and lose loneliness!

Don't wait for someone to phone (or write/email) you - you contact them. And if they seem too busy, it doesn't mean they are rejecting you. Try another time!

If you have been hurt as a child through emotional abuse, or difficult relationships with parents, don't bury those feelings. It is possible to find victory over these hurts.

Why do we feel alone ?10

[أم بدر الدين]

Look brother looking to the persons around us it seems that there is no one but deeply i feel that i am not alone because i believe that ALLAH is always with me in everything...I swear that after the death of my mom i thought that there are a lot of people around me,but to my surprise i found my self alone...The only thing i made is asking THE ALLMIGHTY for help and comfort,from that day i discovered that i have to see my self alone but surrounded by the pleasure of feeling that ALLAH is everywhere at anytime by my side...

Wonderful our wise
I do feel all the time alone but not here with you or at school even sometimes i wish to die but i get back to ALLAH and thank him for the great things that i have

I am so proud to read this discussion

[أم بدر الدين]

You are welcome brother

[hairless17]

Do we feel alone even when we are with people

[أم بدر الدين]

Look sometimes the presence of people itself makes you feel that you are in a deep solitude especially when you can't be involved in their discussions because you are not like them --different minds and thoughts--myself i hate being too much with people because i am used to spend much more time with my small family

My advice is**alot of people around you cause much more troubles**so

[hairless17]

You are really right
