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.
Is it normal that I love isolation?
