There is nothing that hurts more than loneliness. Loneliness is a black hole, a darkness, a horrible negative state that is like dying while being alive. To escape from it you run out to hold a hand and cling to anyone you can find, so that you feel that you are not alone. Because of feeling lonely and just creating an illusion that you are not alone, you want to cling to something, someone, or a relationship. But you know very well that you are alone and that is the cause of suffering.
On one hand, you are clinging to something that is not real, and you can forget your loneliness for a moment. On the other hand, you just want to create an illusion to hide your loneliness, but the very next moment, you realize that it is a temporary arrangement. Any relationship born out of the fear of loneliness cannot be a blissful experience, because the other person may also be connecting with you out of fear.
5 Things You Should Avoid To Overcome Loneliness
When you accept that despite all efforts, loneliness cannot be avoided, that is a great moment. Then, the only thing left to see and think about is whether you should be afraid of loneliness or if it is just your nature. Maybe, loneliness is your nature. You are born alone and will die alone. Considering loneliness as your nature is a misconception. You are enough in yourself. Then instead of running here and there, you close your eyes and calm down. Suddenly, the night ends, and there is a new morning again. The following are some things that should always be avoided to get out of loneliness.
Don’t Think Negatively
The world is very big and sometimes it is very easy to get lost in it. But never feel yourself a small insignificant part of this huge place. Keep in mind that many other people also feel the same way like you. This thinking does not make you lonely in itself.
Don’t Remain Inactive
Never sit idle and keep doing activities always. If you are free from your regular work, then try to keep yourself busy in other works and learning new things, so that you do not get time to think unnecessarily.
Limit Your Social Media Activities
Due to the increasing trend of technology and social media, an increase in anxiety and depression can be seen even in young people, which further leads to loneliness. Therefore, do not be excessively active on social media and try to increase your presence among people.
Don’t Make Relationships With Everyone
It is not possible to always find encouraging people, friendly faces, and sweethearts. Sometimes, you will also find unpleasant, irritable people who only know how to make disappointing comments, which breaks relationships and can cause loneliness. Therefore, do not try to make deep relationships with everyone without thinking, understanding, testing.
Don’t Be Sad With Memories
Being sad by some special moments can encourage loneliness. You should think only about the positives of special moments and instead of getting sad about those memories, you should express your feelings by painting, writing stories or sad shayari and thus enjoy the solitude instead of sorrowing the loneliness.
Final Words
When life feels too stressful and you feel like you are facing it all alone, stop for a little while, breathe and think that your health and well-being is more important. So do what you need to do to reduce this anxiety.
Change your mindset. You come into this world alone, and one day, you have to leave alone. Being alone is not a bad thing, it doesn’t mean that you have to feel lonely. Do everything possible to turn your loneliness into a calm solitude.
