4 Things to Do when You are Feeling Alone

in #alone8 years ago

Each and every one of us is different in its own way and the only thing common is we all want to have fun. There are broadly two kinds of people one who are extroverts and the other who are introverts. Extroverts have a great ability to make friends, express feelings and enjoy life fully. But introverts restrict themselves to a certain limit to express themselves and be around people. Extroverts like to be around people and get easily mixed up socially so they have lesser tendency to feel alone. According to a research introverts tend to have a great tendency to feel alone and drained.

1. Watch a movie and Read a book 

Watching a movie is one of the best method to feel good and remove the stress by immersing you in an interesting story. Superhero, comedy and Action movie are preferred when feeling alone because of the fact that it gives us the reason to believe something different and totally engage us mentally and emotionally with the scene. Reading a book is also one of the best method to feel engaged and away from the outer world. It doesn’t only help in having a good knowledge base but also gives a sense of inspiration. I always prefer to read story books.

2. Travel and Plan a Holiday 

One of the biggest reason that we develop a sense of loneliness is by being trapped inside your house and office. Well, we are not machines and not going to be here on earth for forever. Our world is so big that we won’t be able to experience and travel each and every place. Traveling is what gives us interesting things to see and feel. If you really want to feel alive and make your live worth living then start planning your holidays once in every two weeks. Also, travelling doesn’t need to be out of the country, just experience and feel different cultures around you.

3. Volunteer and Be a part of Meet-Up 

We feel alone because we have a lot of time for ourselves but not for others. Focussing on the need of others will definitely drive you to leave the focus from yourself and help you to be appreciated by your work. Who doesn’t want appreciations? We are hungry to be appreciated and there is only one thing that will help you to achieve it, that is give your time to others and be a volunteer and a part of meet-up. It will not only help you to feel alive again but also help other to grow and ultimately your network chain will keep on increasing.

 4. Order Food and Coffee 

Each and every one of us feel alone at some point in our day to day life. Well, all we need is a food break from our daily casual routine. A good food meal can help us to focus on good things in our lives. Eating different and good food may seem like a small thing but it has great effects physically and psychologically. No matter how you are feeling, a good food will always turn your mood on.

Nice suggestions.
But I have to disagree with you about introverts. Introverts need to have plenty of alone time as that is what recharges their batteries. Although an introvert can enjoy the company of others, it drains our energy and after an hour or two we have to run away and be on our own again. We LIKE being on our own.

Agree with you but my point is most of the times introverts spend alone time.

If we have a choice, we'd spend more alone time! But what makes us feel drained is being with people too much. We don't feel drained from being alone. Whereas an extrovert will feel good when they are with people, but when they are alone, may not handle it so well.
