Question

You can have lots of friends or be around other people every day but still be lonely. I guess you have to get out and do things. A group called Meetup will put you in contact with people who share your hobbies, such as hiking, bowling, sailing, or mostly anything you can think up. It puts you in the position of already sharing some common activities. They may have bowling leagues, or all meeting up for a certain activity. It also give you the possibility of clicking with someone in the group. It's worth a shot. MEETUP. COM

Have you talked with a doctor? Is it medical? Would be my first thoughts. When we are healthy mind and body we don’t usually feel extremes. Wouldn’t hurt to ask them. Otherwise get out and join others in your community. Classes, sport or fun hobbies. Do something different from routine.

I stopped using Facebook and Instagram and thus was no longer constantly innundated with messages from people who want to hook up with me but have no actual interest or care for me as a friend or fellow human being. Also got into motorcycling to take up my free time

"Loneliness does not come from having no people about one, but from being unable to communicate the things that seem important to oneself, or from holding certain views which others find inadmissible."

Books and online forums.

Pretty much anything with a storyline line I can hide in, books, TV shows, movies, comics, they've always been an escape for me when I get lonely, and when that's not good enough and I don't have anyone to spend time with I've found online forums to talk on.

You can go to grocery shopping and get some yummy things or go to McDonald’s to get smoothies or just walk around a little bit. I don’t think it’s a good idea making other lonely people as a friend. I think people abuse your situation and they use you for money and emotionally. I am tired of friends who are using me for drug money or drama they put it up with. I accept the loneliness and move forward to achieve my dream period
