LONELINESS - A double-edged sword

in #writing6 years ago

Probably we all have some fear, that feeling that doesn't let you advance, a psychological barrier that "you can't overcome", that defense reaction when the danger approaches, that effect that has no date or time on your watch, comes unexpectedly, manifesting itself in your life path.

In itself, fear has many definitions. Taking some concepts of psychology, it can be said that it is an emotional state, which is carried out for the correct adaptation of man to his environment, causing anguish and anxiety in the person, feeling fear without there being a clear reason.

In the midst of so many fears that can haunt us every day, some of us are afraid of losing everything, but when I refer to everything, I don't mean so much the material, but rather, the people, our relatives, friends, acquaintances, even the person you love, feeling an immense emptiness, an emptiness that makes us feel lonely, that's where I wanted to be, the fear of being alone. The LONELINESS can mean to be without someone, to be completely isolated, something that since the time of the caverns, was overcome, the man always remained in group to survive. However, when we enter our mental chaos, the physical and social concepts are displaced, drunk that right now we can have a multitude of people around us and feel alone inside.

There are two types of solitude, the one that is imposed and the one that imposes itself, in any case they are difficult to bear, especially when you are away from the world. Psychologists recommend spending some time alone, as it is sometimes healthy, because you can explore your inner self and discover aspects of yourself that you might not have noticed if you were with someone else. In turn, you may develop a high level of concentration, the focus becomes clearer, and a sense of peace develops, but like everything else, excessive loneliness eats away at your thoughts, consumes your time, makes your mind sick, and slowly destroys.

Despite being alone and feeling such an abysmal sensation, there comes a time when we desperately try to fill the void, whether it's with more things to do, more work, more exercise, more hours to sleep, more video games, more Internet, more vices. Others try to find someone who can give them enough time to feel better. But this is not right, it is not right to be with a person for the simple fact that there is someone, even if it does not fill that void. Some may even be with someone they're not happy with, but they're happy with because they think they won't be able to find someone to give them attention like him or her.

My advice is to remember that solitude does not exist completely (without counting extraordinary cases), when you are alone, enjoy it, rest a little from so much hustle and bustle, relax, I have a meeting with yourself and when you are ready, seek company and also enjoy it, be able to find the balance.
