Is there a way to numb yourself to loneliness? I've only had one real friend since I finished school 15 years ago, and although I'm grateful for having him, I never get to see him often so I'm on my own for months at a time. I don't have any other friends and people don't like being around me because I'm weird, boring and quiet, and the pain of being alone is turning me bitter and hateful. Sometimes I consider drugs, alcohol, even suicide, but they're fleeting thoughts.
How do I come to terms with being alone and find peace? I don't want to feel horrible every day any more.

Volunteer, take a class, join a book club- there are a lot of ways to live a fulfilling life.
But it's not going to come to you- you have to take the first step.
If you want to feel like you're not alone, drive your car off a cliff and hope for the sweet embrace of death. Then you can see how many people miss you.
