I live alone and loneliness is a HUGE problem, I try to phone people often but it isn’t enough. It’s the main reason I’d consider suicide. I’m literally so lonely I could die. SP

I have lived alone and it seemed to conicide with my active psyhosis you know attacking the military seeing spies everywhere. I have lived alone afterwards in recovery wtih friends over almost everyday that helped. Seeing a nurse every two weeks or having a house cleaner in seemed to help me recover. I say live alone but don’t live "alone" is good advice. Now I live with a woman this seems best. Living with other intellectuals can be good. I think doctors and social workers and the rest of the team would like us to live with others. It takes a lot of work either way. Dishes, floors, food shopping, bills, and then relating to others oh wow call it life. =:) – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text -HanJeong Lee wrote: > are there anyone who is living alone? > I am currently living with my mother who is 65 years old. > I would like to know what living alone is like. > is loneliness the biggest problem?

Yes, it is. — #g…@telecable.es; http://www.telecable.es/personales/gamo/ Politics is like coaching a football team.  you have to be smart enough to understand the game but not smart enough to lose interest. <QL.;.FIN/MINITBS10765977288146815667j==pSNZ[<3fJskrj7CykkG3UrtFxcVK1f^K_Q =D

I have lived alone for decades now. I don’t feel loneliness living alone. At my current place there is too much noise from my neighbours to experience loneliness. Sometimes I wish I lived alone in the country somewhere and experience the quietness there. Fat chance. I think loneliness also goes away when you have become used to the situation. I prefer my solitude, but value the visits that I get from friends and family very much. Every day I go to an activity centre to browse on the internet, socialize with the people here, so actually I have no time to feel alone either. The years before I was so occupied with work, that I was already glad I had some time for myself alone. I have friends who had relationships that went to ruins, and they felt alone for some time, but also got accustomed to the situation. In Dutch we say "alles went" (you get used to almost everything) and that is very true. Berty

I live alone and I love it. I can walk around my apartment naked, cook naked, eat naked, sleep naked, dance naked, I get total privacy, peace and quiet and can do whatever the hell I want without someone telling me "NO!" I can stay up as late as I want, watch whatever movies I want to rent, sleep in as late as I want, turn my stereo on full blast, and tons of other things that I could never do when I lived with my parents. I suppose if I were married I could still do all these things but for me it is the single life. I love solitude. —Juniper "HanJeong Lee" <hanje…@mail.server.or.kr> wrote in message

Hi HanJeong, I live alone. I have lived alone for several decades. I find computer communication helpful. It helps relieve the isolation. However, my therapist is skeptical about the value of computer communication. I think he regards it as a very poor substitute for direct personal association with friends. A substitute that might reduce motivation to develop nearby friends, in his opinion. Walt "HanJeong Lee" <hanje…@mail.server.or.kr> wrote in message
