Why do i feel alone in a crowded room. Have You Ever Felt Alone In A Crowded Room. Loneliness is a very lonely place this is the paradox of this feeling. Primarily because feeling alone doesnt have to do as much with your physical proximity to people as much as feeling connected to people and the world as a whole and being thrown in with a bunch of people without feeling enough quality genuine connection in our life can really underscore us feeling.

On the surface connectivity seems to require that I connect with other people and they connect back with me. Why do I feel more alone in a crowded room than when Im by myself. They are a result of me believing a terrible internal lie.

And all the while I feel like Im standing in the middle of a crowded room screaming at the top of my lungs and no one even looks up-. Well there could be multiple reasons why you feel alone in a crowded room. Still other times these feelings of loneliness rise up out of nowhere uninvited and without cause.

Familiar feelings of loneliness rise. These days it seems like half of everyone I know is on anti-depressants and Im a little conflicted about that. The resulting crowd which is often loud noisy and congested easily overstimulates introverts and drains them of their physical energy.

I can get it when things grow cold and too quiet with a family member. Loneliness is a social feeling but theres an explanation for it in our brains. Of course that gathering was an extreme example of being alone in a crowded room but that feeling isnt sequestered to that one incident.

In my 265 years on this crazy planet I have found that it is there in a room filled with people I dont know that I am most aware of my deepest desire to be known and belong. All those people remind you of the connections you wish you had. Navigate the urban maze step deeper in the night.
