How do you guys cope with feeling alone?
I'm not on here to whine or complain about how terrible my life is, because it's not. I'm fairly successful with a loving family and friends who are always telling me how glad they are that they know me, but I just feel so disconnected from it all.
I fell lonely even though I'm surrounded by people. I feel inadequate even though I've accomplished more than I really ever set out to do. People will tell be the think XYZ about me, and I'll hear them, but deep down I don't believe them.
I'm miserable although I don't have a good reason to be. I've tried taking up a couple of hobbies to distract myself, but all it's highlighted is how empty I feel all the time.
What do ya'll do to fight this feeling?
You can't fight that feeling bro. The only thing you can fight is the eventual suicidal thoughts that follow.

Not at all. Anon is right that you can't fight that feeling. Forcing yourself to care is a dangerous path. However, your feelinjgs will come to pass. I've been in that place too, to the same extent that you have. I fought it at first by performing random acts of kindness, but that didn't help. Then I just decided to do random and obscure things. One of those things was trying to make friends with people that I used to be enemies with, or bullied in high school. I met a girl who I seriously damaged the life of, who I felt a deep sympathy for. The sympathy was so deep that it made me grow very attatched to her through my deep. It's what eventually pulled me out of that place. Four years on, she is one of my closest friends.
