it’s like chewing on gum when you’re hungry

I've spent so long suppressing my negative emotions and distracting myself from them, that now when I try to listen to them and see what they're telling me, it's overwhelming. There are so many different issues that I've left unadressed and I find it impossible to pick one and stick to it.

Its like drinking coffee or energy drink to stay awake while sleep deprived, temporarily viable but detrimental in the long term

[Whoiskimb]

Loneliness: Ayo go talk to someone
Social Anxiety: Nah don’t do that

Now I’m stuck HELPPP lmao

[ChronoTheCrusador]

I wished there were more places to hang out that are open for the public because I am too poor to pay for any club

[JazzBoiiFGC]

That's so true. I took a break from videogames for 3 weeks now, and I'm constantly trying to go out with my friends/trying to meet new people.. it's so refreshing and I feel much better

[Dnd-Versatility]

Im starting to get hyper aware of how negetive emotions have never been allowed in my family. And that this is one of the main reasons why my emotions are so out of wack all the time

[lauraelliot]

Trauma can make it hard 2 make geniune connections out of loneliness but it is true people do need to reach out to others in real life or find support in real life because blue light and social media is not always positive.

[DarkSaruman]

I do reach out to people and then get ignored or rejected.

We cannot fulfill our emotional needs in the timeline we are living in as easily as humans from 5000 years ago...most of the times we gotta suffocate them inside of ourselves.

[WolfgangDoW]

All emotions send important messages that shouldn't be ignored. "Negative" emotions are signalling that something is wrong!
Anger for example often stems from injustice, or feeling wronged, it empowers you to right those wrongs. All civil rights movements have been fueled by anger at the current injustices even

[fRSky]

But how come with depression the first thing that gets into ones head is "you are a failure and therefore should be isolated till kingdom come"?

[anewbeggin]

I don’t really bother with people anymore. I’m open minded to meeting people, but I’m not going out of my way. Years of one sided friendships, friends dying from drugs, friends ruining their lives, getting ghosted, getting solicited by religious people masquerading to be your friend has left me permanently jaded. I prefer the solitude, and if I can get my socializing in through ai now.

[analogies]

I think this man is really important for the gaming community. A lot of gamers need to hear this shit

[hackerbrinelam]

I feel like that the current loneliness issue is a big picture, systematic problem but rather than a coincidence

[mdhasiburrahman]

Oh my God this information is life changing, explained in a very understandable way.
MASHALLAH.

[connortheandroidsentbycybe]

Thats true but its because when we try to get rid of lonelyness the "corect" way and actualy go talk to someone we can get rejected by them meaning more negative emotions so we learn not to do that and instead just take the guaranteed relief of playing video games

[mezz]

Me when i was playing World of Warcraft with no end when it came out 2005. Had a social (online) life but it leads nowhere. Also being addicted to playing this game is very unproductive.

[whalecrown]

ey doc do coop games help with negative emotions? asking for a friend, that friend is me

[jesseskellington]

The frustration here is the loneliest comes from the fact the people around me or people I cannot interact with within a healthy manner.

I would love to see a reaction video on this subject from the TV show bear season 2 episode 7 the Christmas special.

This is the type of threatening lonely environment that I'm in but at the same time just look at their mother breaking down asking for help but in the TV show for the full episode every parent every child had gone in to help with the dinner. In the case of loneliness that is not me. But one of the people that have come in to help that parent do the "7 Dish" dinner.

In this case how could I not be lonely. How could the mother not be lonely....
