@_sagira_ that would be so rewarding, I'm sure it would also be extremely challenging at times as well.. haha yeah good old social constructs of were you 'should' be at and what you 'should' have to show for it.. living up to the expectation of other people sucks.. I tried that for a while and hated it haha.. I'm sure you will do fine :) I wish you the best of luck with it all

@tsnyder I've been reminded that it is always good to enjoy your own company because from time to time it is going to happen throughout life.. I've also learnt some new ideas to entertain myself when I am feeling a little lonely or am just on my own and a little bored :) I'm really glad I jumped on tonight this has been a great experience for me

@_sagira_ I do agree with that, it took me until I was 24 to even decide what I want to do that i would love getting out of bed for.. I have always had a passion for helping people, I guess I just had to help myself first.. Congratulations on starting your honours by the way, that is fricken awesome.. and don't feel old, 28 is still young.. You have 2 years before you should feel old ;) hahah I'm joking... but seriously you aren't old :)

@tsnyder I also agree with that.. but like I said you may not always see the positive to begin with but eventually (hopefully) you will reach it.. I definitely think our own natural reaction can massively impact the way we see negative things that happen, at the time it can be extremely hard to focus on anything positive. I hope that make sense haha I'm tired tonight had a big day at tafe

@tsnyder I totally get that. I also feel like that my house is a good representation of me.. If it is a mess, generally my head is a mess.. so 9 times out of 10, I'll be smashing out a bulk amount of housework and thinking about what is on my mind. I find that helps me cope if it is something really deep and really bothering me.

Hmmm that's a good question @tsnyder, I guess for me when I can't get a certain thing off my mind, I know its time to chill out and figure out why it is stressing me out or what ever emotion it is causing me.. I often think about it myself and then I'll ring my mum for a second opinion.. sometimes I don't know I'm ready I'll get half way through nutting out something in my mind that is bothering only to realise thats what i've been doing haha..

Why is it important that we learn how to enjoy our own company? I think it is important to enjoy being on your own company, so that when it happens we don't get depressed/ fear being alone.

@tsnyder I think that that sometimes if you aren't ready to deal with some thoughts then that is a good time to make up distractions. I think you have to be ready to listen and pay attention to your thoughts.. sometimes if you aren't mentally prepared to listen to your own thoughts it can do you more damage than good. that's just my thoughts lol

@delicatedreamer I also agree with that. Especially when you are in a group of people, but you only know a few of the people and you just feel awkward and rather lonely because everyone else knows each other

In what situations do people most often find themselves on their own?
I find myself alone mostly during the day, when everyone else is at work ( I have a night time job) I guess it just depends on your day to day routine

I just didn't like who I was as a person, I was pretending to be someone i wasn't so when I was alone I used to massively beat down on myself. but now that I'm older I love my own company, its a great time to reflect on things :)

I am the same Zac, I'm extremely loud and sometimes people don't know how to take me. I went through a period of time where I pretended to be someone I wasn't. But all in all you should always be yourself, if people are your real friends they will love you for you :)
