You might still feel lonely because of lack of support from those around you. You should look into peer groups in your community for others going through the same kinds of problems as you.

It may depend on the people who surround you or on your mood in the very moment. Do you interact with those people? Make the first step, start talking to them and you may find a soulmate.

Firstly you need to find out why, It could be that you feel you can't be yourself around these people or feel unwanted. Once you find the reason you can find a way to work on that :) don't give up

Sometimes we feel lonely even when we are around a lot of people because we aren't surrounding ourselves with the right people. Find those people and only surround yourself with them.

Sometimes you don't have not have anyone around you to be lonely. I call it emotionaly lonely and physically lonely. Emotionaly being the way you feel, in your head. Like your all alone and you cant talk to anybody and nobody is there when there is hundreds of people around you. Then Physically being completely and utterly nobody around you. But there is always someone around you to speak to and chat to, the way you feel is a form of depression and you can speak to a therapist about this.

at some point in life everyone goes though it, i have a lot of friends and family we are very close too but i feel very lonely at times/ most of the time wanting someone to be close too, but i have learned that i should be happy and forget about those things and focus on the goods thing that make you happy to keep you busy so you don't think about it or even talk to someone that you are very close too and would like to share things with our judgement. That's what helps me overcome theses times and i hope this helps too but everyone copes differently.

You're not surrounded by the right people, or you're surrounded by TOO many people! I get that a lot too.

Being lonely and alone are totally different things. Loneliness is rather a state of mind, so it's quite normal to feel so even when you're surrounded by alot of people. You might be feeling lonely because you either feel out of place around these people or feel like you're not being understood by them. It could also happen if you're dealing with other mental health related issues.

Because feeling lonely is not being alone. When you are alone you don't have anyone around you. But feeling lonely is a feeling from the inside of you. You may feel lonely even though you are surrounded by someone because you don't feel connected with them like you don't have much in common. Or they don't understand you or don't know how you feel
