Are you a lone ranger?
Do you enjoy being alone, or do you just tell yourself you do, to make it feel better??

I used to really enjoy being alone but these days I prefer the company of my family. I don’t mind a few hours through the day alone but day in day out would be hard.

I am alone a lot, I do my exercising alone, I do not really enjoy being alone, and sometimes I like to have somebody to talk with, when I have my walks and ride my bicycle I see sometimes people, not so much in winter, because people are more inside in winter, I am glad we have this forum.

I used to pretend I’m better alone a few years ago
As I grew older I enjoy more my alone time.
What’s worse is being lonely and the doorbell rings, but it’s a Jehovah’s Witness.

I like living alone but I have to get out and about otherwise I think too much and get depressed
I want to get out more and more
Sometimes when I ride my bicycle and see local JWs, I have a chat with them. They give me their publications, glad I am not on another side of the border in Russia where they prohibit JWs.
I think that exercising helps if you have depressíon, maybe just walking around where other people are.
Love being alone but I really hate being alone. My mind gets far too active when I’m alone.
Nobody calls me but annoying telemarketers.
I don’t enjoy being alone. But I want to be alone because people make me feel dissapointed. I enjoy when I spend time with my family and my husband, but my family live so far away and I see them 2 or 3 times a year.

Every post you give @Katherine85 seems very stable.
I never knew how lonely I was til I met Phil.
Personal life is totally better with another,
a live in, a constant.

I am not the biggest fan of alone time. Then again I find time with people hard after a couple of hours. I like phone calls for a point of contact. That and this forum
I have gotten used to it. I see my parents and people at work, and that does it for me. I try my best to spend the rest of the time on my own to recharge as it’s hard work.

I’m an introvert with possible Aspergers and sza. I’m getting used to the loneliness. My dad is more alone than me and seems content. He had more of a social life than me growing up though.
If I wasnt sz, I could see myself having lots of friends, a wife, and kids.
I’m used to the loneliness. I have to learn to be content. I mean this isn’t my first time living with schizophrenia. I cannot change much. It is useless to have unrealistic expectations.
I think the is the hardest part for me. I feel like im kind of admitting defeat in my own weird way !!!
