As lame/sad as it sounds @outlander
That is often something that helps. I think in today's world where everyone is obsessed with their social media and their presence on it I think it is important to disconnect and re-engage with yourself.
Especially in times when we feel alone.
I keep visualising myself alone all the time because I find that people can be exhausting. It made me cry this morning. That hasn't happened for ages and I think it happened because I was exhausted and also just anxious about my travels upcoming.

Tbh @outlander I think it makes a huge difference if we view ourselves more positively

[outlander]

yeah i guess so @MDT work in progress i suppose.
i dont use social media very often anyway, if i didnt have clients and family that live far away i wouldnt have it.

yes people can be exhausting, but sometimes its better than being alone every hr of every single day

I find that I am using it less and less. Only just to contact people on chat. That's all.
The internet is good for lots of things, but I think people are starting to substitute things or at least give it too much social capital. @outlander

[MDT]
