It’s not easy. It sucks seeing people you know happy & in relationships while you’re there single and if you’ll ever find someone. But thinking about the negative is only gonna make you feel worse about yourself & life harder. If you can’t learn to love yourself, you can’t love someone else. Try focusing on something that makes you happy. Sometimes doing something that makes you happy could help you stop being depressed. It’ll take some time but if you continue to focus on that one thing, it’ll help motivate you into doing other things which is gonna help you become more positive about things. And the more you focus & stay positive about what you’re doing, the more people will see that and gravitate towards you

Hey, some of the best memories of my entire life are when I was single and hanging out with a group of friends and having cookouts, going out to eat, playing sports together, parties, trips... I literally went to work and then didn't get home until 11-12-1 o'clock and was as busy and having as much fun as I've ever had.
Single? You aren't in a romantic relationship? So what? Get out there and get busy and active and live life. Relationships are great but so is the freedom of being single. Go have a blast.
Everyone has their own "opioid", so to speak, when it comes to this sort of thing.
For some it is drugs, both legal and illegal.
For others it is alcohol and still for others there is constant drama needed to mask the pain, depression and loneliness.
You will no longer need to worry about any such thing Ms Mary.

How to find the man of your dreams!
Relationships are not easy, they need lots of time, patience and understanding. Sometimes they bring pain and sadness too, at those times you’ll miss being single.
Try to enjoy it while you are still single, you won’t be single forever and I promise you will miss being single again someday in future.

I just refuse to get down. I go out, live my life and visit friends. Laugh and have a good time as if nothing is wrong or has changed. What's to do, really?
We can't go through life being dependent on others, or others for our happiness. We have to be happy within ourselves. One can't go into a relationship bringing 50% of ourselves. That's assuming we're even looking.
Don't worrybe happy, the song says. If something is meant to be, it'll be. In the mean time, go on with your life.I spent 2020 single and some of 2021.
it’s really a case of finding something to put your energy into.
this can be a hobby, sport, join a club, learn something new.
friends and family can help to provide distraction.
Masturbation helps with depression for some people.
it’s spotting when you are likely to trigger your depression and avoid getting those triggers.I try to focus on myself, give more time to my hobbies and play video games. Ig for me it's a way of keeping myself distracted so I don't start thinking about the past or overthink about stuff I really shouldn't. You can do whatever it is that makes you happy until you feel mentally and emotionally ready for another relationship.
There's no such thing as loneliness and depression. They call it that when people want sympathy for not getting their way. Just work towards getting what you want, it's really simple if you know what you enjoy and what you're good at.
I don't get lonely and I don't get depressed. The first stage is gratitude for everything you have in life. Being present, a spiritual connection. Keeping active and healthy and embracing stillness.
Projects!!!
They keep your mind occupied and when you're done you've got a redecorated room or you built a custom bench... and you'll feel better for having accomplished something you could use.
Volunteering is also constructive.Do things with friends and family. Call them if you can't get together. Go outside? Try to meet new people by joining volunteer groups, clubs, etc.
I felt lonely and depressed WHILE in a relationship. Haven't really felt like that since I broke up four-or-so years ago.
You can not be a healthy part of a couple unless you have awareness of your own self worth as an individual.
