Big City? Do you work? Do you have neighbors with dogs that you could care for during the day(while they are at work), walking, take to dog park, play with(at no charge). Take walks in your neighborhood watch people and how they act, what they wear, just anything, just watch (in a subtle way of course). When you go to your neighborhood stores say hi to the people that work there, smile at people. Libraries to read magazines or newspapers for an hour or two a day. When you see your people(store owners/workers outside raking leaves hosing the sidewalk, shoveling snow, washing a window ask if they could use some help to get it done quicker take no money if it is offered(you might then tell them something of yourself if you like) ask for store credit( music store, book store, etc,).Make sure your living area is clean that takes up some time. Being alone is not bad we are just conditioned to think this way, being lonely is a state of mind that you can cure by being ok with yourself and others, learn about yourself, smile and be king to people and yourself. Take part in any free and community based programs and special events, holiday events that are going on Parades, lectures, open houses of businesses, doing things makes you part of a community. Be careful to start out slow with whatever you do you still need time for yourself. Live and be kind to yourself, most of us were not really taught how to live good lives, maybe thats everybody but only some have dificulty with further developement of ourselves. Take care

Well said, AC.

As for the library, you'll be able to rent books from the library as well. Most likely at no charge. Libaries don't usually charge you for registering unless you're from out of state. Another thing you might look into is volunteering. Depending on your health conditions you might be able to volunteer at local shelters. My husband volunteered for the Dorothy Day Home before we moved and while he didn't like seeing people in those circumstances, enjoyed meeting the people and talking to them.

Extend a smile or friendly action in behalf of each and everyone with whom you come into contact. Go outside and take step one, it cost you nothing. Take a deep breath and appreciate that you can or any other small, maybe previously insignificant thing in your life, the fact that you can do anything that many people cannot.

Our attitude is our calling card which introduces us to each other.

It's when you being to look at your own thinking and that, it us your thinking that is sick, and it is what is creating this sick outer world as a projection of how much pain and darkness you're denying yourself to look at.

For you to get to this point in your life, you probably had allot of wounds in childhood or traumas.

For you to create an isolation and sense of hopelessness means that you had to at some point become completely dependent on other's abandonments or abuse to you or of you.

You need to fix yourself. Stop running away from yourself. Stop trying to fix things by trying to find the outer world(friends, people, places).

If you begin to heal emotionally and spiritually(no religion here), even your physical illness will be more manageable and you will at least have a sense of peace in a place where physically there is no peace.

You're searching too much to on the outside and avoiding yourself. You inner self.

But you know all this already and you're still avoiding and afraid.

Pray for courage and you will stop feeling sorry for yourself and see yourself as WORTH living.

Join a nearby active busy church even if you don't believe in it. They will have volunteer opportunities and organized social events for the various age groups. That's advice I haven't yet taken because I still love being along as much as possible.
Having other people in your life means when you get old they will try to take over your life as if you are a child. I'm not sure how to get around that but maybe by then I won't care.

I wonder what would have become of Stephen Hawking, one of the greatest and most contributive theoretical physicists of our time, had he adopted this mind set upon his diagnosis of ALS. He can barely move a finger and communicates with the world via a computer that he controls with the slightest facial movements. The point is a free mind, with or without pain, still provides a great amount of power and freedom. All you have to do is realise that. Break from your prison of the underpowered and realise how much you can still achieve. For more inspiration watch this motivational speaker with no limbs: [link to www.youtube.com]

Re: when you havent got a friend or family in the world what do you do with yourself??
There are some great suggestions here so far. A few years ago, I was in that dark room, alone and lonely (4 years). I had pushed away the few peeps in my life in (I thought) justified resentment. Sick, tired and lonely... the thought of getting out and doing simple was overwhelming. Even basic chores and grooming felt like a big, big deal.

The thing that turned it all around finally was getting on NATURAL mood enhancement supplements (5HTP, adrenal suppl., SAM-E ) Research naturopathic or orthomoleculer medicine. Taking these and omega oil and vitamin B's gave me just enough to get out of the hell I was in. Increasing seretonin, dopamine, melatonin and endorphin levels makes all the difference.

I hope you feel better soon. Good luck. hf

I don't have any advice for you brother (sister?) but I can tell you-you are not alone. Just live a good life and do no harm to others, including yourself. When you pass this plane of existence you will understand why you had to "suffer". All will be known. There is a reason why every human being incorporates into this existence, and while it may be difficult to understand now, as I said, all will be explained.

Re: when you havent got a friend or family in the world what do you do with yourself??
I am with you OP. It is a dark dark world at this place. Resentment sets in when you see or hear about others lives. I lost my job, ran out of unemployment benefits and have not a single penny to my name. I can't drive anywhere because I can't afford gas. I am eating like scraps. I am isolated from anyone. I sit in the dark and wonder why I should continue. My contribution is minimal and the loneliness is so stinkin heavy. One person posted on here about getting a guitar and playing the blues. He was probably being sarcastic, but I tell you, my guitar is the only friend I have right now. I have not set it down. There are many in this situation and others don't get it. It causes you to sink lower and lower into a place that makes it impossible to break free from. Good luck. I hope you find a way out that keeps you living.

Should also add that I take B vitamins and eat well, so the St. John's wort gives that extra lift that I still sometimes need. Having a good diet and taking the B-vitamins is the most important thing one can do for overall mental health.

^THIS^...I am very impress by the compassion this morning on this thread...there is hope for humanity...

Many years ago I was lonely but not alone.(had lots of money friends family)...I however wished for it all to end...Life at that time made no sense to me but I continued to go through the motions because I had had employees and people who depended on me.

One day I was inside a building (Legionnaires or Moth hall) we (film crew) were set-up inside for lunch...I happened to be in the building alone with the caretaker before lunch and was looking at a rows of books...The caretaker said I could look but to close the case when I am done...

I picked a book opened it and read the first paragraph that jumped out at me...It said this..." A man who was wealthy and had all life could offer was depressed and wanted to end his life and sought God to asked him for a potion that he could take that would take his life...God said OK but 1st could you do me a favor...The man willingly agreed and asked what God wanted him to do...God said for him to find 10 people in need or in a depressed state and help them in some way to ease their pain...God then stated that as soon as he was done he could come and get his life ending potion...The man went and did what was asked of him and when done returned to God...God thanked him and handed him the potion when the man smiled and said, God I no longer want the potion and just wanted you to know that I have found my purpose in life. The man smiled thanked God and left to go and help others in need"...

That book (which I borrowed for life)...with that phrase shook me to my core...Some years back I gave it to someone who needed that...

I have since that time lost my business and have had to start over a few times but my life is blessed in so many ways...Just find the good...If you do as the man did it will ease your pain and bring purpose to your life...It did for me and I am not that special and I am sure it will do the same for you...Oh, and do get of the computer...Go for walks and study trees...flowers...buildings...limit yourself to not more than one hour per day on the web...My heart goes out to you AC...hf
