I feel the same; never ending isolation. I loved your idea of 'contacting people if you know that they are alone'. I would like to do that myself; but it seems like I don't know anyone who is alone like I am. It would be nice if that message got out and people acted on it. It would be nice to get a note from someone asking me how I'm doing.

I live in an small apartment complex, and are in close quarters. I feel just as lonely as if I lived out in the boonies with no neighbors around. The people are OK but it's hard connecting. They seem to have their own little groups to hang with, so I feel like I'm not needed.

Before this pandemic happened, I felt isolated. But now I feel more that way. At least before this thing happened, there were some distant hope it can get better. For now, that hope is just gone.

Best to you.




Thank you so much for replying. I felt bad like I was whining and complaining. I also live in an apartment complex. I live in a large new building and the way it is set up I rarely see anyone. There are probably 60 units in my building it has long hallways which lead to a covered garage in the middle. So everyone comes and goes through the garage. I only see people when they are driving in or out of the building.

We used to have once-a-month events like pizza parties in the lobby or other events but all has been cancelled and the lobby closed. There is an online community website...sigh...I got a cash reward this month for answering the most questions on it...but it is more a commercial device to advertise.


The best thing was on Earth Day the property management left plants on everyone's doorstep. More outreach like that would be nice.
