Why do i feel lonely but want to be alone

Feeling alone is a normal, human experience. You can feel lonely when you're by yourself or even when you’re in a room full of people. When you don’t feel connected with anyone or you feel like no one understands you, you might feel as though you are completely alone even if you’re around friends or family.

You might also wonder, "Why am I alone?" Causes of loneliness include life changes that lead to social isolation, like moving to a new place, grieving a death, or the end of a relationship.

I am lonely and single

In some cases, loneliness is linked with mental health conditions like depression. People with low self-esteem may also tend to feel lonely if they struggle to make social connections.

While everyone feels lonely at times, being alone too much can negatively affect your physical and emotional health.

Studies have found that loneliness can be just as harmful to your health as smoking 15 cigarettes per day. Loneliness is also linked with cognitive decline and the risk of developing major psychiatric disorders.
