Knowing other people are alone, eases the burden of solitude.
Being by yourself isn't the issue; it's feeling lonely and thinking you're the only one in that boat. Alone is fine; it's the misconception that others aren't alone that messes with your head.
Knowing that others close to you are also alone creates a sense of connection, as if you're sharing the experience even when you're miles apart.
The mental struggle is a feeling, not a concrete reality. Recognizing this can help in understanding and managing emotions.
Acknowledging the subjective nature of emotions opens doors for changing one’s viewpoint.
