Is it normal that i love isolation?

100% Normal
10 Comments

To keep it short I've had a very troubled life. And thought about suicide multiple times. But now with a break from uni and quiting my abusive job. I love staying in my room 24/7. The only problem I have is I wish I could sleep and stop hearing voices.

The reason why I love isolation is because I don't want anymore connection to people. I'm more interested in things. I feel so happy alone wish, I'd done this earlier. And wish I could do this forever, maybe I'll try and live in the country on my own in a nice house I will build. That's my dream, and after I've settled I want to help people in 3rd world countries and the homeless and mentally ill.

People always have Ill intent toward me and misunderstand me a lot. So avoiding everyone is heaven to me.

    I like isolation too, I'd like a cabin in the middle of nowhere. Nobody can truly understand that stuff unless it's happened to them, even then it's different for everybody. I hope you get what you want one day.

    I agree so much with you, I feel like when I'm isolated from everyone nobody can hurt me anymore.

      Yeah avoiding people helps me focus on more important things instead of fake and toxic relationships.
      I don't even miss good relationships because I find relationships draining in general.

    If that's what makes you happy right now that's fine. People go through phases in their lives where they just want to be alone, but be careful with this. As human beings, we are naturally social creatures whether you're willing to admit it or not. We like connecting with others, and if we're not having those connections in our lives I promise you it will start to affect you sooner or later. The thing is, if you get used to being isolated, it can be really hard to find a social life if and when you want to. If you're alone for too long, it's not healthy. It's proven that people who live isolated lives actually don't live as long and have more health issues.

      But not everyone is the same, especially mentally. Actually my mental and physical health improves when I'm away from people. And I have no desire for connection or people. Like I said before I'm into things. And I got a pet rabbit to keep me company and a sister.

      I'm one of those people who feel extremely drained hanging around others.
      I know it may be hard to believe but that's the way I've been for a long time. And my sex drive is dead so I do multiple activities to stimulate my brain instead.

    I don't think people are out to get me, just out for themselves. I really prefer being alone tho, with my pups.

      Yeah I don't feel like that I just think there are way too many horrible people. I'm quiting an online game today because my own team is toxic (which is ironic because the opposite team is indifferent to me).

      Aw puppies are cute. My pet rabbit keeps me sane.
