I feel lonely, but...

This is my first post here in the forum and people probably do not know me yet. I'm a full-time university student and I go to university everyday, and I'm sick of my daily life.

I'm an introvert.

I basically do not have any single close friend I can spend my time with (neither in nor out university) in my free. As a matter of fact, I feel most comfortable when I avoid my classmates. I feel like I waste my time everytime I have a 'small' chat with someone, and directly feel the urge to leave and go to the library to sit alone.

I can't say I'm shy or anxious when I interact with people, it's just that no one interests me at all. I'm afraid I'm setting very high standards for friendship, which is causing me to view everyone as either stupid or immature.

However at the same time I feel extremely lonely. I'm having a huge conflict between me trying to seek comfort and pleasure by staying alone and between my depressing feeling of loneliness.

I'm not sure what to do!

Hi Mo'Men.

I'm new here, too.
College-life must be stressful. I have one daughter who will be a senior next semester. It it's misty because of her I found this forum. We suspect she has ADD and will have her see the Dufour in July. She could have gone next week when they had an appt time appear, but my daughter it's going out of town so cannot make that one. Drat. Now she has to wait until July.

Since you are in college, I'm concerned your diet might not be the best. I'm a health nut, of sorts and know the difference it makes. Sleep, too.

There is a book by Julia Ross, "The Mood Cure" that might be helpful to you. Maybe you can find it at the library. ??

I suspect I'm an introvert, too, so I can relate to what you are feeling.

There's a cute movie with Sara Jessica Parkerr that has a character banned Mo'men.....

Being lonely in a group of peers can be worse than being lonely when you are all alone. It is even worse when they are all doing small talk. No real communication or meaningful communication is there. No connection is the final result.

You are smart, and desire more interesting mind food than just small meaningless chat. Check out clubs or music groups that might interest you. Emotional immaturity is the norm for our modern culture.

Indeed, Thunder Bow.

don't feel lonely..make your active participation with the public...
