All by myself, Don't wanna be all by myself...

Alone…It’s hard to feel completely alone nowadays. Communication with others is always within arms length so long as I have my phone. At school, I’m constantly talking to my friends or teachers. At home, I’m with family, At work, I have to be a people-pleaser. However, after days filled with being social, I do feel the urge to be alone.

I’ve noticed recently that my patience for people has decreased a lot. I think it’s because I have to deal with difficult people all day at work. It becomes very tiring. I just want to get in a comfortable place and read or play video games or something relaxing. Some days I just want to curl up in a ball under my blankets. No, I’m not depressed or an anti-social person. I just love having some time to myself to think and wind down after a long day. The only thing is, I hate being alone when I don’t want to be. I like to stick to a healthy balance. If one is alone too much, it is impossible to benefit from interaction with others. On the other hand, solitude is necessary to develop an individual identity.
