...but those without medical depression (I won't attempt to give you advise, I'm not a profesisonal). Have you ever thought, instead of sitting by yourself and thinking about how alone you are, that maybe you could share whatever happiness and talents you DO have, with other people who might be far less fortunate than you.
"Worrying is like a rocking chair--it gives you something to do but it doesn't get you anywhere."
I think the biggest issue with loneliness, is really the fact that you FEEL you have no one else to live for. Sure you have a job, a place to live, you're handsome/pretty, you're young: you have someTHING to live for, but not someone, and that's where the loneliness comes in. All life is precious, so if you aren't going to share your life with friends/significant other, share it with others who are yet less fortunate than you. I can assure you there are worse things than feeling lonely (non-medical depression, really want to hit home that this is for non-medical condition), like starvation, homelessness, etc. So if you won't feel good about your social life, at least feel good about yourself knowing you did something self-less and important.
Who knows, maybe the girl/guy of your dreams is working in that same soup kitchen you are

Americans are the loneliest ppl I have ever known. It's a cultural stuff. They are super independent, stoic and asocial ppl... It's all a drama when it is about social interactions.. just saying..
