I don't see loneliness as a bad thing anymore

I don't mind being alone too. I've been a people pleaser and I thought to feel worthy, that I needed to make everyone feel happy or good, always. Well, it's exhausting for years doing it. And rarely are they doing it for me. However I'm realizing I do need SOME friends or people in my life because I don't have any support system, my therapist says. And they are right..I have no one to ever lean on if I should ever need to😦 I am going to try to really find a weekly or monthly club to join because while it feels good on the short term, being alone, not dealing with drama, etc ...I know in the long term it's not the best for me, emotionally.

I like that my friend .
Your after growing out of the loneliness feeling , ( take time ) and now you found solitude.
What happens after awhile when your own your own ( I'll say it to you ) you might start to panic think everyone has a better life than you ( that's a trick of the mind ) but when you feel alone it's a great thing .
The reason why I say this to you is I can understand. I felt alone most of my life so it didn't take much off me .
I dealt with that in teenage years feeling alone and then had relationships and also felt alone in them ( not all of the time ) but as relationship break up happens then I got withdrawal symptoms of emptiness after break up to get me back to solitude ( that's was the most painful experience I ever experienced) .
I don't feel alone . At times I can get uncertain or if you want to say I be a doubting Thomas when it comes to be certain about myself.
I can see at most times when the mind starts to play tricks with me .
Usually when the mind starts to play tricks usually what it wants is to bring you into despair and shame . It wants you to bring you back right into loneliness and separation from relationships.
You can't be alone all the time either .
That's very unhealthy

Hi what's your name I feel this way sometimes too. 🙂😊

I'm 100% there with you

I prefer being alone too, and it’s not often lonely.

Aloneness or being alone and loneliness are two different things.

Loneliness by definition is a bad thing. Just say you like being alone, because no one likes being lonely.

There is a certain sense of peace in loneliness. It's worse being lonely among people:

People sure are a disappointment. I couldn’t agree more 👌🏾

Oh, I still can’t stand being alone
