RE: The Loneliness Epidemic: Why Are We More Connected Yet Feel So Alone?

Regarding what you say that people feel alone in the world is very true, technology cool relationships, eliminates the pleasure of smelling people's perfume, the aroma of a flower when they deliver it to you and the warm feeling of A hug or a strong hands.

On the other hand, people are those who are bad trying to appear what are not by social networks, networks are right to socialize, meet people, but humanity has decided to project and live on appearances deceiving others, showing them lives that They do not live. In this sense the problem and responsibility is in an alarming percentage of people who are not able to realize that networks show you lives that are not real in the majority. You have to have enough critical thinking so as not to be fooled by this.

On my part, I have chosen to be alone and away from the people because the current state of the world depresses me, seeing that there are so many stupid people, unable to do things intelligently, to get out of the addiction to vertical dopamine, that of seeing Videos and comments on social networks, when preferably what they should do is get together in a place to talk and invent things, as people did before, in other times. Thus the great revolutions, the great deeds and the great ideas were formed.

All the best.

I'm sorry to hear that's the current state of the world depresses you. However, I don't think that choosing to be alone and away from people would be the solution to how you feel at the moment. We are social animals, and we are made in such a way that we crave social interaction. Even an introverted person's world craves for a hug or at least someone to talk to.

It is true that people choose to be a completely different person on social media and that has affected a lot of people in a variety of ways. However, there's really little or nothing that we can do about it other than taking what we see on social media or the huge bucket of salt

I have lived isolated voluntarily for 40 years, for different reasons I have been saying that "segregated" I could start explaining the reasons but I would get out of the main focus of the topic we talk.

What we can do is make clear people that social media is an illusion in its great major good.

We are facing a great dilemma, people need to meet more frequently in the squares, leave TV and telephones at home, start soccer, attend the stadiums, bars and listen to live bands, play chess in the parks, interact.

Basically Doctor, the solution I find that it is in education, and in raising awareness.

I am inclined to agree with you. Raising awareness about the importance of meeting physically and how that is vital for mental health and well-being needs to be a priority.
I must say that he takes a lot of devotion, grit, and tenacity to be able to leave in isolation for as long as you've done.

It is not what costs, because for me it is easy to do it, but what I question is whether the value of the experience that I will enjoy overcoming the happiness and pleasure that my loneliness gives me, as well as to be able to do it.

In most cases the answer is "no" and that is why so much time in solitude 😀
