What's the best way to get over loneliness?

Try not to focus on being alone keep yourself active and introduce new people to your life it can be scary but it will be ok.

Loneliness..no one wants to be lonely. What exactly is loneliness? Loneliness is when you find yourself to be without anyone who is able to connect with you. In this case, you don't need ANYONE to make you get over loneliness. You are the best company for yourself. Do something spontaneous. Dance, cry, or just laugh uncontrollably into your pillow. You are with the best company you can ever have, and that is yourself :) Pursue what you really wish to do. Write a book, sing your favourite song in the park, go to the beach, watch a movie, anything! Let your heart and mind connect as one, and you will realise they are your best friends. Remember, you are the best company you will ever have!

You can find some hobbies or go to the courses and make new friends in there. Dont worry, people are not that bad

The best way to get over loneliness is to keep busy by getting a job, spending time with family, and doing fun activities.

I would recommend the easy solution of finding more/new friends, but of course this isn't always as easy as it looks. Learn to love yourself, and to love spending time with yourself. Go to the movies alone, go to a restaurant alone, enjoy your own company first! If you don't like spending time with you, why would others?

Whenever I feel lonely, I go onto social media like tumblr and twitter and talk to people. You can also join local clubs and organisations. Or get a pet. Being in charge of caring for something else often helps :)

Do what you enjoy doing. Remember that you don't need others to complete you. Do what you can to gradually build up your independence and self-confidence/ self-esteem. And remember that we on 7 Cups of Tea are here if you feel that you need someone to get through a fit of loneliness; but you can do things to eventually stop feeling so lonely.

- Identify the reasons why you feel lonely. When do you feel the most lonely? Do certain people make you feel more lonely when you are around them? How long have you been feeling this way? What does feeling lonely make you want to do? -Start a journal to track your thoughts and feelings. "I feel lonely when.." "I feel lonely because.." When did you first start feeling lonely? How long have you felt this way? -Meditation To get started with meditation, find a quiet spot and get comfortable. You can either sit in a chair or on a cushion on the floor with your legs crossed. Close your eyes and concentrate on your breathing. As you focus on your breathing, try not to get distracted by your thoughts. Just let them happen and pass by. -Consider talking to a therapist about how you have been feeling. It may be hard to figure out why you feel lonely and how to move past those feelings.

Realize that loneliness is a feeling, not a fact. When you are feeling lonely, it is because something has triggered a memory of that feeling, not because you are in fact, isolated and alone. Reach out because loneliness is painful and can confuse you into thinking that you are a loser, an outcast. You might react by withdrawing into yourself, your thoughts, and your lonely feelings and this is not helpful. At its best, anticipation of loneliness might motivate us to reach out and cultivate friendships, which is the healthiest thing to do if you are sad and alone.

Going out, doing things that you love, talking to people, making friends, stop thinking how lonely you are
