Are you able to withstand loneliness?

Yes, now that I'm older. In the past no. I've learned that if I let my emotions run amuck in my life it greatly makes me suseptable to being either in some outpaitience facility care center, Or stuck with a family member looking after me for the rest of my life. I've already had expieriances with mental hospitals, and medications and hated it. So everytime I feel like going completely insane, and trying something stupid I remember back to that day, when I was forced into a mental hospital and medication. Thats enough right there to make any man see the light. I'll never go through that hell again

I have almost never experienced loneliness. To me, being alone is pleasurable.

Loneliness would only bother me if there was an alternative. There are plenty of people out there, just i dont see anyone i'd want to spend time with and that kinda preempts trying to withstand loneliness.

No, each and every day I die inside, but what am I to do other then live with it and hope day to day for something better for my self and life? to live my life in a positive light in hopes it will attract the same? even though a part of me lingers and feels like dying.............

i am unable to withstand loneliness, in general. It is an awful, stabbing feeling in the gut.

I don't think I really get lonely. I pretty much never go out for the purpose of socialization, only to obtain items and do things. The only time I ever feel bad about being alone is if I worry that I might need help with something, not because I need someone to chat with.

I've felt lonely a few times in my life, but I've more often felt the opposite. I don't need very much interaction with other people and it's a fine line between too little and too much. When I have been lonely, it was never a very difficult thing to cope with: I would just spend time with my imaginary friend or read a book. It is much harder for me to deal with too much social activity.
