I feel like this as well and I think it’s more a depression symptom. I also have a lot of thoughts and fears of loneliness so that doesn’t help. My mind is constantly thinking “what if my boyfriend dies before me and I’m left alone? What if all my friends die before me and I’m left alone?” But I definitely think constantly feeling alone no matter how many loved ones you’re surrounded by, might be a sign of some depression. That’s what it feels like for me.

@guest123 I don’t take any antidepressants, and so far I haven’t found anything that helps. I think the only thing that will help is, not being depressed lol. I’m not really sure how to even pull yourself out of a depression. I think it’s something the body naturally does with time but I’m honestly not sure.

Could it be because of the nature of your thoughts? Are you thinking they don't like you, don't really want to be around you, don't care about you, are you thinking you're on their nerves, etc? If you're having any thoughts like that, then that could be why. Next time you're around people and you start to feel lonely take a minute to listen to what thoughts you are having. If they are negative like that then just acknowledge them and let them be but don't engage with the thoughts instead engage with the people. Have an actual conversation or do what every activity they are doing. You may be anxious while doing it but I bet you'll feel good after.

Does anyone else experience this
In the past I used to isolate myself when I was feeling bad or when my mental health became poor. now I feel like I don't want to be alone because I'm scared that when I'm alone, something bad will happen or i'll lose control and do something bad. And I feel like when I'm around someone e.g. my mom, it's easier to just let the thoughts go because at least there's someone there to verify that I haven't done anything bad.

Feeling bad
I feel like a lot of my fears are actually just centered around what other people think of me because I'm scared of being abandoned and no one loving me anymore. I don't actually feel like my fears are about being a good person. And then when I have this thought it makes me feel even worse because many people here genuinely seem to be scared of being a bad person. I feel like an actual bad person who's more concerned with appearances than anything else :(. I keep having these thoughts like what kind of person am I when I'm alone and with my thoughts. And then I get scared to be alone.

Relationships are hard...
I feel like if I spend time with anyone im always failing everyone else. A lot of people depend on me and want my time. I feel like I can't be enough and it makes me feel like I deserve to be alone. Does anyone ever feel like this?
