I'd hate to be argumentative, but I disagree. Unless you mean it helps you keep it out of your present mind most of the time. I'm comfortable being alone—other than seeing a person when I took the garbage out the other day, I haven't seen anybody in like 3 or 4 days...I've lost count. I'm so comfortable being alone that I'm almost numb to it. I do see friends once a week, but otherwise I don't socialize. I'm trying to get a job where I would work from home...probably not the best choice for my mental health, but probably for my future career. I suppose I "socialize" when I play with bands...but I'd love to be in a group where the members socialize outside of rehearsals so it doesn't feel as superficial.

So I suppose it helps you become numb to being alone, if that's what you mean. But it doesn't help you to become happy and fulfilled with being alone. If that is what you are indeed implying.
