Humans are complicated creatures each person has their own way of dealing with trauma or Problems. Some go into isolation and some just burry it all inside like the trauma never happened. Isolation is seen as the state of having minimal contact with others. Everyone in their life goes through this phase or you can say that somehow they are stuck in this. Some people become a part of isolation, they may be physically able to go out and meet people but are inhibited from doing so by factors such as depression, social anxiety, losing a loved one, or grief and that leads to a person feeling vulnerable, needing some comfort.
We humans make a lonely crowd, and it’s killing us.
I would like to focus on isolation and how in isolation people can ease their process of healing instead of suppressing their emotions or turning towards negativity in isolation. In isolation, you can become a target for both positive and negative thoughts, it depends on your will.
The majority of peoples in our society are somehow in isolation and not on the good side of isolation they are on the negative side. That’s why we are divided today, instead of being united. If we want to take a step forward and think about how we can make this world united or less isolated than we can focus on how to control the negative thoughts that come in isolation, mostly they overcome by reading books especially self-help books. Because every book carries a message with itself, a motivational purpose and a value to give.
I myself have been the target of isolation. And I know it is hard to recover from a huge trauma that has changed your life that is why they say: “Time heals every wound.” I read a lot of self-help books. I have learned and still learning a lot from them and not just books by being my own advisor and having faith in me instead of depending on people. I learned that isolation is not just a process it’s a phase and a necessary phase. And everyone goes through this phase the question is: Do you want to divert towards the negative or Do you want to divert towards the positive. The choice is yours. Talk to people interact and share your thoughts and feelings with your family and friends as isolation is not for everyone as I mentioned before some people suppress their emotions instead of suppressing them talk about them. Work your way through and heal. If we stay like this forever with the amount of depression and anxiety in our youth, we will always remain stuck under this title: “we are a sad generation with happy pictures”.
