I've been gradually isolated for the past 6 years. Now I'm nervous and very afraid of the outside world. Like other people want to harm me all the time.
yeah, i’ve been isolated for years with mental health issues and I crave social interactions and friends but I also have a fear of people and feel really uncomfortable around them too.. so I avoid them a lot.
@@helena893 Have you and those who replied to your post looked into Avoidant Personality Disorder? From some recent research that has been done, it appears that having a history of childhood emotional neglect and peer rejection seem to play a significant role in the tendency to avoid people. APD is a more severe variation of SA (social anxiety.)
I lack a lot of one-on-one social skill as a result of being alone for very prolonged amounts of time. Isolation is not a place of growth for me. It is a quiet place, where all my dark thoughts and ideas come to light. It’s where I feel all the bad thoughts cutting the deepest. When I’m alone, the only other voice in the room is my own mind, and when the room is quiet, my thoughts become louder, and they hurt even more.
God I feel that! I am a musician and a data entry clerk. I am a customer service agent and a trainer. I am everything. When I was three, I was asked what I wanted to be when I grew up. I said, "I can do anything!" Lol Then I tried magic mushies and now I realize I had it right! And I'm not alone! You are everything too! We are all the universe touching itself! After years of trauma which built my ego to the sky, isolation collapsed that for me. Very painful, loads of self criticism to get here. But now, I am at peace, almost at least. Still holding onto alcohol but I'll let it go soon.
for me personally they are not multiple personalities they are jst real person in shared body u need to show them whos the boss of the body, schidzo just weak people thats unable to recieve the gift, if ur able to control them u will never be alone, theres happiness in the grim dark life
Anyone who is willing to read, I’m 19 and have moved to a foreign country 2 years ago. Recently I have been looking for a job and it has been extremely difficult considering the language barrier. I live alone and since I moved I’ve been extremely lonely. Since July I’ve been in total isolation. I live alone and the only time I went outside was to smoke. I don’t think I can do this anymore I’m extremely suicidal. Back home I was popular had a lot of friends but now I’ve lost contact with most people from home. I’m so stuck if anyone is willing to talk I would really appreciate it
Where are you? I'm an expat in Turkey, but I also traveled alone at your age. Being in a different culture, facing constant barriers and things that are uncomfortable and unfamiliar can be so difficult. I hope you're doing OK!
Try to go back home . Or where you can find relief. I know how is to feel isolated in a foreign country. I had everything back home. And it is still so hard for me to be here by myself so I'm going back home and I'll be a back but I'll try to go back with someone or be there with people from my country , it would help me to feel home.
woow id say this is pretty accurate... 3.5 months ago i quit my job and tried to learn another skill and change my career path, i hated my last job so much it was soul crushing, the goal had driven me all along. i have always been alone since high school, i havent had a friend in 4 years, but my ambition was there for me, i felt lonely but not too unbearable. in the past 2 months ive found out im not suitable for this dream job that i had wanted, i watched my dream die.... all of a sudden i feel so lonely, cuz i ve got nothing to hold on to any more, then the fact that i have literally zero friends hits me harder than ever, the feeling of isolation and loneliness is infinitely amplified.. im just lost. im afraid im going to lose my mind
If you're afraid of losing it you won't don't worry because that's the thing, you start to not give the slightest f whether you lose it or not when it starts to go and when it goes you were never aware of really having it. Hope that helps. I care x
@Leilani Wasp 5 months past since i wrote this comment, ive changed 3 jobs but i just quit my last job 2 weeks ago. in depair again lmao. but many things have happened during this time which actually makes my life more miserable. i tried to reach out to ppl, joined a hobby group, met someone. i like him sooo much, we dated 3 times but guess what, hes pulling away and doesnt wanna go out with me anymore. i'm friendzoned. he has been occupying my mind for the past 3 months, i spent my time daydreaming being with him etc, i completely wasted so much of my valuable youth on a guy who's sooo sophisticated at playing tricks! i fell right into it, now i feel 10 times more lonely than before i met him. LMAO!!!!
@@invisi6l339 what jobs id you change ? what was the career that was the initial job that made your life unhappy? i am in the same situation in the sense that i don't enjoy what i do and thought about various jobs however non of then seemed to entice me into being passionate about it.
@@simonkochetkov5595 i worked in customer service which was a menial and stupid job. then worked shortly in international trade, disliked it cuz it was too busy, also those companies expect their employees to work overtime without any compensation. i dont have a degree, barely finished high school bc of depression. but i know im capable of doing something more intellectually challenging than customer service or any other entry level dead end jobs. still lost af and more lonely than ever lmao
same expect the only time I go anywhere is to the store I only go to the store if my dad can’t go and thats rarely so I basically isolated from the rest of society
i've been with friends, and i've been on my own, but i'm never lonely, when im alone. but some people need it, someone to call home, but i'm never lonely, i'm just alone
I'm in a suburb of Melbourne. Live alone. Parents live 800km away. No siblings. Drifted apart from a close friend in December 2019 due to her illness, and have been legally prevented from visiting people, or being out of my home for more than 2 hours a day for 13 weeks now. Which seems to be my limit or close to. 4 to 8 weeks left till I can visit people. 12 to unknown weeks till I can see mum who's on chemotherapy since about 4 weeks ago.
I guess I'm done for, then. I have no friends, no relationship and no family in this state. I'm alone 24/7, haven't had human contact in a long long time. Been this way for many years, I'm 25 now. It's the sacrifice of having C-PTSD...nobody wants you. The longterm trauma wasn't enough, people also have to exile you for being a product of it.
Sending much love and comfort to you. I have severe C-PTSD, as well. I know the feeling of absolute isolation for many months/years, and trying to get a therapist or family member to understand is basically useless. If they haven’t gone through it, they don’t get it. Have you tried any online support groups/communities? I hear there are some good ones on Facebook, but I hate Facebook, so I can’t speak from experience on there. I highly recommend Pete Walker’s book “C-PTSD, From surviving to thriving” to help, if you haven’t read it already. I can recommend some helpful YT channels that help me feel connected and understood if you’re interested. Please don’t give up all hope. You are here for a reason, and you deserve to find healing and a sense of purpose. 💛
@@jewelsbarbie Thank you so much for writing that to me. I wish you well on your journey...and I hope that it gets better for you. Thank you for the recommendations!!!
@@HospitalForSouls.X I can relate but I have Autism and MDD, but I have a family that loves me but even so, I don't feel like there is anywhere in the world I belong and and other people just depress me more. When someone starts to get close I push them away before they push me away because I don't want to be damaged more than i already am.
THIS is my new playlist....it will be played everyday....all day...wherever I go...and wont be through ear buds either..it will be on speaker. No hiding!!!!!!
Watching this in Dec. 2022. I’ve been in isolation at home for 10months now. It’s been 4yrs actually, but I’ve been able to get out a couple of months each year.
Jesus Christ loves you he is the great physician. Jesus Christ is the Prince of Peace may the Lord help you to tune into his love for you he has beautiful plans to prosper and strengthen you. Jesus Christ healed my broken heart and my mind and set me free from the spirit of depression. Jesus Christ is freedom from failure
@@livefree316 I was forced into isolation by baptists for not being Christian, if you don't want to be isolated you may want to stay away from Christianity
This talk was presented prior to covid, which is a past talk, so a lot of people have isolated it as a personal responsibility, does that mean that they have permanent changes to their brain? which is scary, In cases where one might be an introvert in terms of gaining energy might be better coping. Questions are in the context of covid.
This is totally true! Isolation has a TOTAL NEGATIVE EFFECT on your body! If you can't even take a walk & excercise good rythym with your body! To not be able to disagree with someone IS REALLY BAD! It will have detrimental affects!
I find it interesting that they are concerned about the prison population! Has anyone looked at nursing facilities where they cram 3 people into a small room with curtains dividing them??? THAT’S isolation!!
I spent 3.5 years in solitary confinement without being found guilty. But 15 cigarettes a day may seem harsh, but I smoked 40-50 cigarettes a day usually prior to incarceration. It can be life saving, but no, I was never found guilty of anything I seemingly did. The Bible compares humanity to locusts, by the way.
if there so many other lonely people why don't we come together and make a platform so everyone has someone to talk to at any point? being lonely is only going to make people more anti-social not good for anyone
Nothing will be the same. You are a wreck. You restore it but you never feel like fitting in any longer. Not with those experiences and the machine I had to become
@@gourgeistz well what if you meet a couple of people who share same passions as you do ? I doubt that you would still "hate" it , it woul'd rather be like you are talking to yourself without it being a monologue where you can predict what's the next idea is going to be and, that's fun 😂 just try to find your people they are looking for you as well 🤗
Currently the Hong Kong 3 week mandatory quarrentine in isolation is a mass human experiment in whether people will have long term brain damage. I am currently in day 16 of 21 and I suffer greatly.
This isn’t good news … some of us have no choice and don’t have anyone in the world that care about us …which I still don’t understand , because there are so many people in the world ….oh well. Better to live a short , lonely life than a long one I guess
the thing from this virus is they were trying to see how many people they can scare and turn into guinea pigs for their social experiment of social conditioning. Jesus Christ forgive us and help us.
Isolatio of animals is not tge same as humans . I know personally i spent 3 years in sol con . With no effects 🤷♂️ maybe it depends on a persons state of mind at the time being strong or weak
How do you get knowledge without a institution? I'm a bit confused by your comment, I myself have lived alone most of my life. I was horrifically neglected by my caregiver due to her suffering psychosis. She didn't mean to abuse me, but she did because of her lack of grasp on reality. I spent 16 years of my life living in a single dark room for a average of 22 hours a day. it severely impaired my development as a human being and I missed many milestones. I'm just slightly concerned because you seem to be internalizing your issues and striving for isolation despite it's negative impacts on the human mind. I myself prefer to be on my own, but there is a difference between solitude and extended isolation, at least i've set a bar between the two. It's good to get out and talk to people, I've struggled with feelings of misanthropism for a extremely long time, I still do to this day in fact, I do not like the way people treat each other or human nature in general, the dishonesty, manipulativeness, selfishness, and other negative qualities found in humans often times upset me to a extraordinary degree. And while I feel i'm lower in these qualities on average, they're very much also a apart of me because, well, I'm human as well. I'm curious of your mindset and believes, and the negative reaction you appeared to have had as a result of this video.
Nelson Mandela turned forced isolation into profitable introspection. Listen to Mandela. He has the wisdom of centuries in his single replies in an interview. Perspective, scientists! Perspective!
Father, i ask you bring solace to these weary souls. Bring them calm and peace in this storm they are in, in Jesus' name. I've been isolated for around 11 or 12 years due to family problems, relationships, job experiences, etc. And can say without a doubt that my faith in Christ is how I have endured. And although I've healed from so much anguish (praise Yahshua), I STILL have enough social anxiety that I'm unable to spend time with FAMILY for the holidays. I am a completely different person now. My walls have eroded, my roof has decayed, but I have built my foundation on the rock of Christ. Without that foundation I would have committed suicide or homicide years ago. I no longer wish to harm myself or others, praise the Lord. I am of the opinion that these types of psychological trauma are not irreversable so long as you build a strong foundation (in Christ), eat well, exercise and get fresh air and EVENTUALLY, if you believe in your heart (having faith), you will be renewed restored and refreshed. I hope this helps at least one person find their savior and find HOPE.
I honestly feel like people who can live alone for long periods of time and are perfectly “content” are either deeply lying to themselves or have some type of serious psychopathy or anti social disorder because there is no way your able to healthily live on your own for years on end unless you only look at people as a source of gain and not as a genuine companion. Like you must only look at people in a sexual or financial way. You don’t look at people with any sort of love whether platonically or romantically and you only Look at people as something you can gain from because it is NOT NORMAL to be alone for that long I have brain damage from doing it on my own for two years. Fuck this cold heartless ass world.
I’ve lived mostly alone for my 39 years of life. I’ve tried time and time again to make friends and I try really hard to be a good person. I think it’s easy for people to blame people like me. But I have a problem with my brain that I’ve had since I was a kid. I’m disabled. I grow and talk to my plants and I have a family but they don’t like being around me because I have a hard time getting around. I’m a mother and my own children barely come see me in the same house. It’s better than it used to be though. But I don’t think i’m a psychopath I have ptsd and a brain condition and life just hasn’t been the best for me. People tend to use me as a scapegoat.
i have been alone a long time and im ok with it. 36 still not married. if your happy then do what works for you. i just never had an interest in other people much
So we’re supposed to feel sorry for inmates that committed crimes and caused others an unmeasurable amount of pain because of confinement size measurements?
BIG NOTE: If you don't have an ego, like me, none of this applies. If you like isolation and smaller places, you are like me. I never developed an ego. I've tried and it quickly collapses as it is actually unnatural. Scientists and "experts" will tell you differently, but it's true. Not being able to be by yourself is a problem. Even from the evolutionary perspective, if that's even the real truth, humans that messed up once could be kicked out of the tribe and would HAVE to socialize. Only the perfect(ly stressed) humans stayed in tribes. They neglect to show evidence of successful lone wolf humans. Interesting, it's because they wanna feel better than you and don't give two shites about what you want. It's absolutely fine to be a lone wolf isolationist. Nothing wrong with that. It's acceptable and healthy for some humans, the ones who are very humble and sweet like me. Isolate if you want, you don't need their effing approval like they trained you to think! Screw this video, screw the egotists. You are fine the way you are. ❤️
Judging by this comment, you most definitely have an inflated ego. The hot air coming out of your keyboard while you typed this is practically flammable.
“Just stay home! Avoid large indoor social gatherings! Go outside and exercise! Wear a mask!” 1 Humans are social animals and we need each other to function (and in society too), 2 in the summer indoor gatherings are the only ones you can go to, 3 due to bad habits over the years is very difficult for me to exercise without feeling excessive amounts of pain, 4 only medical grade masks work and the cheap ones that you buy only suppress your breathing. Get a grip government, you failed because of how out of touch you are. Nobody wants to isolate, and if you say you do you are lying to support some cause.
If only those in government could watch things like this to see the lasting impacts of what they are doing. They are some sick individuals who need some serious psychological help themselves.
Just sitting here, still in isolation thanks to the supremely selfish members of society, watching this after 2 years of what’s essentially been a lockdown for the high risk/immunocompromised
