I’m the only person on earth

[executioner1983]

I like to pretend I'm the only person on earth. It makes me feel less alone, it's better than forcing myself to sit through empty conversations with people who don't hear me let alone see me. Erase them before they erase you I guess.

Same. Trying to connect with other people only amplifies my depression and existential crisis, so I don't even bother anymore. I just try to maintain a detached attitude and socialize a little with the people I have in my life, but that's it. I'm trying not to focus on other people, they make me feel even more lonely. I feel like nobody really cares, they just pretend they care. Or they don't bother to make time for me. Everyone is self-centered, more or less.
