Anyone else too paranoid to live alone?

It’s always good to take your pdocs advice and never disregard it but I don’t feel as though anybody should regard it as the only truth. Perhaps you and me are just sensitive to other peoples energy as our minds expand more than the average person? I wouldn’t be getting jealous of those people who aren’t living alone, the beauty of this world is that we are always unique from each other… perhaps they could be jealous of you for being open minded?

Hahaha, although it’s nice to have that choice, I usually have my brother down for a few beers and he can stay the night :wink:

Sorry, that I spread my loneliness here. I am lonely tonight again and worried about my future, that’s all. Yeap, brucewayne, I should start to see the good points about living alone. And yes, I have moments where I need to be alone. And especially, not living with my mom. She is hard on the every day duties. Yes, we are unique lol :slight_smile: Thanks for the support, bruce.

Ah well to clarify, I was given this 2 bedroom appartement to myself due to the disability benefits in Ireland… and I may confuse you (or many others) with my irish slang:joy:

My brother often stays the night in my appartement because I have a spare room :wink:

I did struggle living alone. I just moved back in with my mum recently and when she works nights I get scared being in the house alone. I understand your fear. Your not alone at all.

I’ve been living alone the past ten years, aside from the year and a half that my ex-gf was living with me. I prefer living alone over living with her. It does get lonely sometimes, especially now that I have no pets, but I’ve gotten used to it.

I do get paranoid at times, but that’s because of the neighborhood. In a sense it’s not really paranoia, though. It’s not paranoia if they really are out to get you.

I am alone every other week while the kids are at their dad’s place. I’m fine during the day but nights I’m often afraid. My dog doesn’t often bark for no reason so if she barks after I’m asleep I wake in a panic and can’t go back to sleep.

I have never lived alone, but I am scared and paranoid when my husband goes to work. I don’t like to be alone in the house. I don’t mind being alone in a room sometimes. Right now, I am alone in my bedroom. When I was young, my husband traveled for about a month at a time, and I would try really hard to stay at home, but I would get scared and leave in the middle of the night with my daughter and go to my mom’s. I’d have to sing songs to myself the whole way to calm myself down.

I lived alone for 6 years. I did some things right and other things I made bad choices which wrecked a lot of the experience. The apartment complex had a majority of ethnic people and me and other people felt discriminated against. I tried to fight the majority but my step-dad said you can’t win and accept it. But I went crazy trying to somehow win even though it was useless and I ended up miserable. If I had listened to my step-father, I might still be there. It was a really nice studio and rent was half of what it should have been. I’ve been in my current apartment now for a year. My loser/predator roommate moved out two months ago and I am really enjoying being alone.

I could live on my own with my pets but I would probably struggle without them. They are my babies. I would get too lonely and paranoid.

I had that a complex I lived in as an adolescent/ teen. I learned not to go outside because the other kids were awful to me. Another girl of the same race as I was beat and had her shoes stolen when she spent time trying to mingle. I’m glad I never did.
