How to Conquer Loneliness

Some people believe that loneliness is a sign of our times, while others believe it has always existed as part of the human condition. After all, we come into this life and leave it alone. But intense loneliness and a sense of isolation can lead to depression, illness, sleep issues and general unhappiness.

California Psychics deal with the issues of isolation 24/7 as callers attempt to get through their empty days and nights with questions regarding a more connected future. Our psychics believe that there is much that each and every one of us can do for ourselves to overcome the feelings of unnecessary loneliness.

Callers ask: Why am I alone? Why didn’t I find my soulmate? Others work 12-hour days, sleep a lot, spend money they don’t have and use shopping, alcohol or drugs to combat these feelings, tell our psychics who include the mending of broken hearts among their specialties. Some callers are lonely because they are new to a strange city and have not yet met friends. And there are many who are waiting for a special love – their soulmate – to cure them of their unwanted solitude.

What’s most important when it comes to dealing with whichever brand of loneliness we suffer from, is that we understand the distinction between loneliness and being alone, our psychics tell us.

We are part of a big universe… we have created communities around us of family, friends, neighbors, faith, special interests… and yet understanding that doesn’t always fill the longing and isolation. We are at our loneliest when we don’t know who we are and don’t love and appreciate ourselves.

Our psychics conclude that it’s best to learn to find happiness for yourself, don’t wait for someone else to bring it to you. Also, use your confidence to get out, start conversations, interact and volunteer.

Being alone, on the other hand (which is not the same as being lonely), can be an important part of our spiritual journey.

Human beings need time to be alone. Yet some mistake it for loneliness. Those people may have to discipline themselves to relax and enjoy life, without constantly having someone else beside them!
