Everyone needs different amounts of alone time. For some, an hour is plenty. For others, like me, we need many hours a day. After all the time you've had NOT alone, I think you need at least a day to yourself. Is there any way you could just get away for a weekend, just to recuperate? Do anything you want to do, anything you like to do. After so much time with others, you might not know what to do first, but that's when you just have to pick something. Or maybe you want to do nothing...just sit, lay down, or sleep. Whatever feels right. There's no shame in needing time away from others.

Many shrinks and high school counselors try to push patients who spend a lot of time alone into being more social, but some of us really need that time alone. It doesn't mean we're antisocial, but we enjoy our alone time without it being spend in a depressed state. I like to listen to music alone (besides letting me concentrate on the music, being alone keeps others from seeing me lip-syncing and dancing badly, LOL!), reading, and if I had a car, I'd be driving alone. I used to enjoy being out alone in my mom's car, but since it was her car, I couldn't go where I wanted and had to bring it back to her, LOL!

I don't think it's healthy to NOT have time alone, at least a little bit, here and there.
