>>85088813You're doing it now anon. The internet is the 3rd thing.
>>85088813this has been a problem my entire life and i don't know what the solution is
>>85089000i'm so dependent on the internet. i am afraid that i am a literal zombie and access to the internet is the only thing that is animating my undead husk.
>>85088813>>85089170This is 4chan for me. No obligation socially, but I get to see people and engage with them if I feel like it. Anonymous communication is truly the best.
>>85088813I'm pretty much the same. I've found that having brief encounters at least daily helps.It stops you from feeling completely isolated while limiting the encounters to a brief exchange to avoid social burnout.As an example, go to the grocery store and say hello to the cashier. The small talk exists just as long as it takes to pay and leave which is perfect and not a second longer
>>85088813you need to find someone who can be comfortable in silence or within a shared activity, where socializing verbally isn't the goal. make sure you get plenty of recharge time, too. there's a balance in there that you have to find.
>>85088813Do drugs, makes it easier to tolerate people and seclusion.
