I guess i'm one of those people who mopes and dwells on how sad and lonely I am. But I do not have any coping skills when it comes to fighting my horrible lonliness. What are some of the things that you guys do to get over being so lonely, and does it help?

talking to people online is hugely helpful

if theres no one to talk to though...i usually wallow in my own self pity. i'll try to sleep the time away

I'll go into my room, crank the music, open msn so I can talk to whoever might be online, and practice karate or something to keep my mind off the automatic negative thoughts.

I usually watch tv or listen to music. When I don't have either of those life becomes really depressing because I have all of the time in the world to introspect. My advise is to find something that really takes you away from reality for a moment. When I'm watching tv or listening to music I am on a completely different plane.

Any form of escapism. Read a book, watch a movie or a TV show, play a game. Fill up all your time with it and maybe you won't feel as lonely and miserable.

Blast some music and exercise, which usually helps my mood.

I just stay on the computer for hours and listen to loads of music. Also watching videos about things that interest me.

I've never felt lonely even when I was alone all of the time. Sometimes I just think maybe I have developed Asperger's Syndrome as well; living in my own world?

I think it helps to not always dwell on the negative, it will drive you crazy. Maybe you can use all your free time to learn about something thats on your mind? That the glass is half full instead of half empty theory that i try to think about when im really bored, doesnt always work though aye.

I think joining clubs are an excellent idea for getting out and about, like something your really interested in, a chess club or something. Ive done that myself and now im more looking for free time to do stuff! Im committed to being somewhere 3 times a week. Its really hard when you think everyone is evil and hates you but at the place i go i know that im super reserved, shy, very anxious, weird but i have had no bad experiences, im thinking its amazing how accepting people can be.

Something strong to drink might help make things more cheery...drink like 2 straight shots of Gentelman Jack (or other similar choice) & then wait 30 minutes & drink 1 more....then wait 40 minutes & drink another...then wait 50 minutes & drink another...keep stretching out your time between each shot that way you may not get to drunk to drink anymore...keep yourself in a drunken but not exactly wasted & sick state....but if you do go to far & get sick....you cant effectively feel lonely while you are being sick.

I dunno...it's bout the only cure for that I could come up with for you at the moment. (Use at own risk)

Absolutely nothing. There's nothing I can do. I don't have any friends at all. I can go online & maybe communicate with people there, but it's not "real", so it doesn't help.

For me its chatting online. This can sometimes be a problem seeing as how I only have a few friends and sometimes none of them will be online cause they could be out socializing. So i'll just watch a movie.
