    The only way to stop it is to stop running from it. Embrace the solitude and ask the loneliness why it has come. And ask what is it that it needs to tell you so badly? Do this and listen. In honest silent expectancy of something. Some reply worthy of being called a reply. Do this and your heart will have permission to speak up and tell you what it needs. And then you will have permission to speak up and ask for what it needs. But only you can give yourself this permission. And this is only one way. But it will work if you do it properly. Good luck. Remember you are stardust. Remember that the gods envy us. Remember that you lived free before they judged you. And remember that you don't ever need to judge yourself on their behalf. Because you are still fundamentally free. And that, however small, is power nonetheless.

    Learn to love yourself. Im awkward+weird. I have no friends except my family and my partner. Even with them I dont really spend alot of time interacting. I feel lonely maybe 5 times a year- even then it lasts only that day. I heavily depend on myself- maybe thats why I dont feel lonely when I barely interact with people. I feel at peace when Im alone. But at same time I love myself and find nothing wrong with me.

    I'm sorry to hear that you're feeling so alone. Awkwardness is rough, because other people rarely get to know you enough to realize they like you. 😕 Is that how it goes for you?

    I've heard that there are courses that teach people how to be less awkward, although I don't know of any in particular. Not sure if that's any help.

    I'm rooting for you!

  • Can I ask a weird question?

    I'm not sure if I have a phobia or not. If I had to judge myself based on what I know, I'd say I do, but a few people told me I didn't, but I don't know if that...
