I’ve lived a portion of my life somewhat isolated => As a devout Christian who didn’t fit in at church or outside of it (those days and god are luckily far behind me). I had people around during most days, but I felt absolutely miserable and alone in those moments.

And while I can find myself in the idea that solitude can bring certain joys you otherwise can’t. I didn’t see myself maintaining that kind of life in a healthy way. Hell, if it went on much longer I probably wouldn’t be here today.

Keep a check on yourself and keep some bridges open to the outside world. Also don’t take risks when you are alone. Leave that fucking football on the roof for another day. Have stuff at the ready for emergencies. Drink, eat, sleep on a regular basis… being a loner starts to cut in on your civilised habits (for a lack of a better expression).

Also podcasts are not a substitute for friendship, it can feel like it at times but you are not part of the conversation. Don’t use AI for that matter. => Don’t <=.

Take care of yourself and enjoy whatever path in life you take. We’re only here once.
