Living

focus22 -- I wish I had something to say that would be a cure to loneliness, but the best I can do is say I understand what you're feeling. It really is an overpowering, crushing weight, isn't it? It pushes everything out of our mind and becomes our entire focus at (bad) times.

Time is the true healer, I think, but, in the short-term, GALing is our best bet. Just getting out, pushing yourself, and you'll find some relief in that moment, if for no other reason than that we can only focus on so many things at once with our mammalian brains. Before we know it, we're 2--3 more hours down the road toward real healing that only time can provide.
