i get lonely very easily, and i feel bad when i call up my best friend every 5 minutes because i am alone. i also seem to get into this very negative melancholy mood when i am all alone, does anybody have any ideas for something i can do when im home aloe and become a lil depressed?
Answer:
The books of David Burns, MD, are an excellent resource, including Feeling Good: The New Mood Therapy, and Intimate Connections. The second of these two is specific to dating, the first is general to depression, anxiety, melancholia, et cetera. His books are available on amazon.com and usually very inexpensive if bought used.
Find some hobbies. Immersing yourself in your misery will not do much, only make you feel more depressed about it.
The best thing is to try something like getting a hobby or a pet. Even getting involved in activities in your community will help too. Good Luck!
Yes hobbies are a good idea. Reading is good as it takes time, you live the lives of others vicariously and of it is an engaging book you feel the characters are real, and your friends. It will also enrich you and make you feel better about yourself and your world. Also have you considered a pet?
Stop searching for something to save you from yourself.
Hmm. Well try not to focus on the fact that no one is around. You can always take a walk, read a good book, listen to music, watch a funny movie and/or anything that you like to do to keep yourself from feeling lonely. Im not sure how old you are but no matter there are plenty of things you can do!
Read and enrich your life.
