Is it normal that i’m lonely around everyone, even people i know well?

Whenever I’m around my family and friends, I feel nervous, anxious and lonely. When I’m alone, however, I feel depressed and lonely. Is this normal?

  • Being around family doesn't guarantee that you will be included. I don't know why these so called "family oriented" people believe that. Being able to converse and enjoy spending time with other people and actually getting along. That is what is called intimacy and it is required for most relationships to work.

  • I go through this and I know many others who do too. I'd say it's very common. Sorry you're going through it.

  • But how do you feel when you're actually alone?

    • When I’m actually alone it can almost feel like I’m drowning. I don’t have the energy to do anything.
