Thanks Tanja. Great distinction between loneliness and being alone. The extraverts in the MBTI profile have problems with being alone, but I suppose that it is true that you can be with people but still lonely. In our area during the COVID lockdowns, those who refused to accept the narrative felt alone and I remember that with some neighbours, there was a large gathering of those who could see that in rejecting the government propaganda, they were not alone. Up until that point, many people had thought that they were the only ones. It showed me the importance of community and being with people who share your way of thinking. This led to us establishing a local "freedom" community which is important to this day. Sometimes it is a hard search to overcome loneliness.
