In this video, we explore the topic of existential loneliness. Specifically, how the solitary nature of consciousness prohibits us from ever truly knowing and understanding each other, but how we can still potentially benefit from and connect over this sense of isolation we all feel.

Ah yes my dose of existential crisis

I had a best friend of 11 years that died in 2021. There is so much between us that died with him. So many memories, laughs and stories that are gone forever because my memory fails me. There is so much about me that he knew intimately that I will never be aware of.

Sometimes when I visit a very populated place I look around at all the people and for a brief moment, imagine all of their perspectives perceived all at once. Every brain and set of eyes looking out on the world with their own thoughts and views, both in the physical world and inside their own minds. The fact that humans are the only species in existence that can perceive this is mind blowing.

I find writing massively helps with existential depression, even just writing about abstracts of depression, death, and self sacrifice often helps personify those emotions.

I never hear anyone talk about this. Iāve always explained to people that I feel a deep āexistential lonelinessā, but no one really got what I meant. Hell, this video is the first time Iāve heard anyone else call it that.

as a child I had extreme depersinalisation and derealisation that no-one knew about. I felt so extremely lonely with my thoughts, disconnected from reality, my friends, even my parents that never did me wrong in any way. existentialism is something I've known for as long as i think. seeing videos like these soothes my inner child, thank you so much for putting all if this into words ā” :)

Very strange when you really think about it, life is so awesome. If you're reading this, thanks for being here. We're all in this crazy game together š

as someone who resonates a lot with a lot of autistic traits i often feel like i tell people TOO much of EXACTLY what iām thinking. seeing the other side is interesting. people getting depressed over internal loneliness makes so much sense and i feel even explains a lot of our psychology. we are humans, the only ones who experience such an extreme self awareness.

Solitude teaches us this profound tautology: Itās only when Iām alone that I realize Iām never truly alone. The ādivine animalā inside us all understands this. As Atticus said, āWe are never alone. We are wolves howling at the same moon.ā

I feel a sense of calm when I realize it's pointless to even attempt to share my deepest thoughts or feelings. And I realize I've never really understood anyone. The deep stillness and silence comes over me of "letting go of trying."

When it comes to art,music,literature, philosophy and knowledge loneliness is not the diseases but the cure. Loneliness is no longer loneliness, its a collective consciousness.

This is why I'm always melancholic. I'm afraid to feel a bit happy because it'll blind my philosophical views such as this. I've always felt lonely because everyone is being happy. No one is thinking of stressful things which for me are strongly worthy of attention and discussion. I know it's an unhealthy and less popular practice of life but deep inside there are questions of reality and change of perspective. I know I'm having fun at some portions of my life but I'm always melancholic deep inside, and now some people know.

It's crazy how we all once lived a life being told our feelings don't make any sense, that we're alone, and nobody will ever understand.
But now on social media I see memes openly and easily conveying that same feeling and situation we all thought we experienced alone.
Sure, there are things only you understand, but there are experiences you'll realize everyone relates to later in life. Wild.

Music is a universal language that we can all share together.

I have been feeling this loneliness for a very long time. feeling trapped inside my head and so frustrated that I can not articulate into words or make anyone understand what I'm feeling. I'm also very much alone living by myself in the real world, but feel even around people I'm alone and just too different for others to understand too weird for everyone to ever fit in. I know I am truly not alone in this. I mean I still am, but so is everyone else in some sense. Some just may be more lonely and misunderstood than others. I've always been aggravated that I have not been able to articulate what going on in my head, what I really mean when I say some thing.

The realization that every single person from enormous amount of living at this moment carries so much of what is unknown and will never be known by me is excruciating.

This is why I find music so nice, sometimes using it therapeutically. Because you find a certain sound, a certain rhythm, a certain pulse that allows you to somewhat connect to the world, to nature and the loneliness of each particle that interchange with one another

I tried to conform. It was my main goal when I was in elementary school. I just simply wasnāt able to do it. At about age 15 or so, I accepted this fact. It was a difficult process to transition to a mindset in which I didnāt care to seek affirmation from other human beings. But it was ultimately freeing.
Now I know longer care about being popular, powerful, wealthy or leaving a ālegacy.ā I realize I will be forgotten relatively soon after Iām dead, as we all will be eventually, and Iām at peace with that. Because why would I care? Iāll be dead.
If one worries about what other people think of them, then one lets them set the agenda for your life, and oneās individuality is f*cked. A person should never try to conform. Instead, one should look inside oneself and discover what they really value. And then do their best to nurture it.
