Ant Guide Q3 (feelings)

Of the many feelings that hurt - grief, anger, jealousy, loneliness - loneliness hurts the most.

Wow. I couldn’t disagree more!  Loneliness is the most painful feeling imaginable. It’s the feeling that no one cares for you, or even knows you exist; the feeling that you are the only one who cares. It’s knowing that no one wants to help you, hang out with you, or even talk to you for that matter! It’s when you know that you’re completely alone. No one can help you but you, and there’s nothing you can do about it. It is the most horrifying, painstaking experience someone can go through and it makes you feel like nothing can ever be good again. I hope no one here has or ever will go through that. Grief, anger, and jealousy all have their downsides too, I can talk about it all day. But they go away with time! The only cure for loneliness is the love, care, and time spent with friends and family. Yeah, that short amount of time we usually take for granted, that we sometimes wish would just be done and over with! I guarantee you that someone here would do anything to take your spot in the MAC with your friends. Anything at all, no matter what. So please, the next time you see someone by themselves in the hallway or the MAC and they look like they need cheering up, talk to them! Hang out with them more often. It may seem small to you, but it means the world to them. So trust me when I say that, out of all of the feelings that hurt, loneliness is the most painful feeling of them all.


Do you agree?

  1. I definitely get what you're saying Caitlin. I know what it feels like to be in a state of loneliness. And loneliness unquestionably hurts the most. For example, at my old school, I felt so out of place. Everyone made fun of me and I had no friends. But then I went to a church and I found out that a small little act of kindness could open my eyes to see how great was my loneliness and how I desperately needed help. Jealousy and anger are emotions that yes, are bad but as you stated Caitlin, THEY DO GO AWAY IN TIME. Grief is another matter, but is less greater of need (of help) than loneliness. When I went to that church, I felt LOVED. Loneliness is pain, sorrow and depression mixed all in one, and when you're lonely, you don't have anyone for help. So when a small act of love was shown to me, my loneliness was taken away, and I felt like a load was taken off my shoulders. Loneliness is without a doubt worse than grief, jealousy and anger, take it from me, I experienced it.
