It is! When you're with others, you keep your mind busy with dialogue, and that sort of pushes anxiety away.

Yeah. We're social creatures. We need others and we always find comfort in their company. So it's normal to fell that way when you feel like you're alone. What you have to do is reach out to someone, make a contact. Talk, feel, touch.

Yes it is. Your mind can run through many thoughts when you are alone and not occupied with company. It can cause you stress.

I think people tend to feel more anxious when they're alone because you have the time to think more. You aren't distracted by other people and other things going on, so it makes sense that you might start overthinking during those times.

It’s more than normal. When you’re alone, you’re left with your own thoughts and they can be pretty dangerous sometimes.

Yes, it definitely is normal to feel more anxious when your alone because in a way your thoughts get to you. One second your calm and composed and next your brain fills itself with stressful thoughts.

A lot of people feel anxious when they're alone! Sometimes, when we quiet our minds from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, it can be difficult to stop these feelings from creeping in. These feelings can be controlled, however! If you are feeling increased anxiety when you are alone, and it is affecting your mental health, you may want to seek guidance from a therapist.

The Facebook "Seen" message gives me a lot of anxiety! When I see that the person has "seen" the message, but does not reply, I start thinking about all the possible reasons why they would 'ignore' me... Does anyone else feel this? If so, how do you cope?
