Well I'm feeling really lonely right now.
I generally listen to a lot of Nick Drake or Tom Waits, and that is what I'm doing right now. Others things I do are eat a bit of chocolate or a bowl of cereal with milk. I can't seem to concentrate enough to read, but I sometimes sit and write while I drink some tea (I love tea). So, what do you do?

I'm sorry that you're lonely, but I guess we all are some time. I usually go out shopping. Just being near other people seems to help me. I like to go to bookstores.

Thanks for the answers! Loneliness is over by now.
I like going to bookstores too, especially to the ones that have tables so I can drink some coffee or tea while I read. I enjoy doing that very much.

Write letters to friends and family. Emails seem less therapeutic.

I'm also living on my own. I'm trying to get some of my friends to move with me but they're too comfortable living with their parents...

I try to watch an engaging movie, play scrabble on iPad (love that game), go on my computer and mindlessly read, try to go out if I have some energy, or I'll sleep.
I've learned to wait out that intense feeling of loneliness because I find that it does pass. If I make a big deal of it, I can start going down the depression road, so I watch for that. I can't let that mindset take over. Glad to hear your loneliness passed.

hugs to those feeling lonely. sometimes i miss those lonely days when my kids are driving me nuts...
i remember well how it felt though. when i lived alone eventually i adopted a cat who really helped with the loneliness. she was my baby. i also love listening to old music when i feel that way, like from the 60's or older country songs from the 80's. Coming on here is a great idea too. i also like to play games on my phone, kind of a distraction.

Loneliness is a state of mind yet I do feel lonely sometimes. When I want to be around people I go somewhere to people watch, go to a movie, or hang out at a bookstore. Mostly though, I put puzzles together.

Um, love Nick Drake but that certainly does not pull me out of my loneliness. So if you like the feeling... Then by all means. I have 222 songs I can suggest for just that but I've had to "shelve" that Playlist if I want to be happy.

Hi, yes I got my kitty! I'm really happy with her around the house.
She even jumps on the bed and comes to sleep with me.
