Loneliness is a double edged sword

[Dante]

The hardest thing I struggle with regards to my depression is that I hate being surrounded by people but cannot stand to be alone. Does anyone else feel this?

I don't have friends maybe one or two and my family pretty much sucks and my view on most people is pretty much the same but the thought of having to be alone at times instils fear within me.

Hello, Dante
You don't have to be alone.
We are here for you in case if you need us
I distance myself from people in real life, but am open to people here.
And I like being alone for sure, making connections before CTB is not a very good idea in my opinion.

We are meant to be socialable.

Loneliness is a good thing. It gives you time to reflect on yourself. Something that a lot of people don't do nowadays because another person is always a click away.

You should expand your mind while you are alone. Take some free online courses. Pick up some new hobbies.

Continue to work on yourself. Eventually you will find yourself in a room with the right people.

i used to find that its not the physical person being there with you but somebody to share thoughts with that understand you.
im pretty sure there are those understanding people here .

I have to isolate myself for the sake of my own sanity

No, I dont have that problem. I live alone but I want to have family and friends.
