What does it mean when you feel lonely all the time?

Being in a crowded place and yet being unable to find a connection with anyone. Being misunderstood, being out of place. Having no one to lean on.

It means you are in surroundings where people don't understand you, when they would never give a support during your problem and so on.

It means that you have all the time in the world to love yourself and to engage yourself into something positive and productive :)

I couldn't go outside for almost three years! And it's awful. I needed friends. I read fantasy novels and imagined a new character for the stories, and that one is me. I imagined talking and joking with the characters in the stories. I imagined I follow their adventures. Yeah! I imagined friends for me.

I'm sorry you are feeling lonely. Loneliness can be caused by many things - genetics, physical isolation, major life events - and it can also be a symptom of depression or other conditions.

We often feel lonely. Certain events can lead to this feeling. You don't necessarily have to be alone to feel lonely. A lot of people have claimed that they have felt like this even when they are surrounded by others. It happened to me as well. And it's completely normal to feel like that. Being alone and being lonely is not the same thing. Although, I don't believe that any of us is alone, none of us is the only one. But technically, you are alone when you dont have good relationship with family, when you dont have any friends, when you dont have anyone at all to talk to. But you can feel 'loneliness' even if you are not 'alone'. Do you feel lonely all the time? It can mean that the people you are sorrounded by or the friend you have are not able to support you the way you need to be supported. Maybe you still havent found a friend that will always have time for you and will listen to you. If you may not know what led to this feeling, maybe it only means you need love and friendship at that period of time! It can be a symptom of some physiological or medical state as well. So if you feel incomplete or lonely often, try talking to someone about it. If you dont have someone like that near you, dont worry, you can find a lot of trained and active listeners on 7 cups!

When you feel lonely all the time, there are several things that explain this. One thing I find is that it means that I am too caught up in my own thought processes and worries. Mindfulness helps this. It allows me to live in the moment and connect with the world around me and others around me.

Loneliness is often described as a feeling of isolation, not belonging, and not being able to connect with others.

Sometimes if you feel lonely all the time it's sometimes through isolating yourself from other individuals

It means you need to get offline and have some face-to-face real interactions. If you are already doing that, you have a problem and need to have a chat about on 7Cups. Many people suffer from social anxiety. When I start feeling lonely, either I arrange to meet someone, go out to a cafe where people I know hang out, or just involve myself in some activity on my own that I love doing and that makes me feel great.
