What do you do when you're in turbulent times?
Do you cry?
Do you do other things?

Basically, whenever I do (I rarely ever do), I just retreat to the relative safety, comfort, and privacy of my room. Back in the days, maybe about 7 years ago, I'd just cry and cry, yes, I used to be teh big fat crybaby. :P
But it's basically the easiest way to get things off one's chest.

Either that or I just sleep 'til it's over.
 
I don't cry very much anymore. lol. I actually...was quite a crybaby up until a few years ago, but now I've pretty much...been ignored to the point that it's meaningless. I used to cry to pull guilt trips on my bf...didn't work. I would cry to let my anger out...it just made my eyes red and puffy and for some reason it just dehydrates me too much.

Uh...last time I cried was actually in FRONT of my dad when I was at the doctor's office.

Alone?
I don't do much of anything when I'm alone. Why...I'm alone right now and I've got nothing better to do than click refresh five times a second. XD
 
To be honest, I have been doing absolutely nothing with my life for the last year. Right now, I have everything at my disposal...I have the opportunity to go anywhere and do anything, I have a cute new puppy, 324930 games at my disposal, a set of paints, a camera, every movie on the face of the planet...

And I'd rather be sitting here refreshing the page.
I've pretty much lost all interest in everything that I own or have advantage of. Hence...why I'm sitting here clicking refresh over and over.

Right now I'm pretty much sick of being alone and...I can't wait to have a job. XD
 
Haha, I'm never really alone...well, not in that creepy way. >.>
Because I have you guys. :D

Actually, yeah, I have so many other things that I can do, but my patience is only ever so lengthy. I mean, I can sit down and draw, but only for about 30 minutes before I give up and gravitate back to the forums again. >.> Believe me, the pull of this place is astounding.

As for lonely now, (I just realized I didn't say anything about the present) :P, I just listen to my optimistic music; with titles like 'Here Comes the Sun', 'Good Day Sunshine', and 'I'll Follow The Sun' I can't lose. :P
Seriously, that's what I do when I'm lonely. >.>
 
Me? I usually get bored and bitch about it. Then I randomly scream for no apparent reason except to be funny. Then when I am at the edge of my sanity, I come to talk with you deadbeats.
 
My most frequent "alone time" activity is web surfing. Even if I'm not even LOOKING at anything, I just sit around and click click click...

I agree...I frequently start working on other things like drawing, or playing a game, but shortly after, I find myself digging through the forums again. XD
 
I wouldn't cry when I'm lonely. I hate crying, even though I know it does feel good sometimes. Usually, I retreat to my room and have a quiet time with myself. Or take a long walk at the park and sit on those swings. (But that was years ago, back when I was still living in Cali).

Anyway, there's really not much to do when you're lonely. Watch the clouds roll by and you're pretty much in a daze. Sometimes being lonely can be fun for me. For instance, watching the raindrops fall and just letting the mind wander, but being content at the same time. I'm sentimental like that.

If I ever did that, I would consider it a 'reflection', you know, make it sound nice just so that I can feel better about myself and the environment around me. :D
But for me, I'd just get really bored doing something like that, even though it makes sense that time would fly by even when you're not having fun, but just concentrating on a single thing.

Sometimes we just have to look to nature is all. ^_^
 
Do you ever just find yourself staring at the wall?
I mean I have the TV on right now and it's like I've seen every episode of every single show already. lol.

I do prefer to sleep half of the time.
Why...sleeping leads to wonderful dreams. =]
 
Go to juvi. You guys'll then know what boredom is. :P
 
I usually around people so much in the day and at home, that a lot of times I welcome a little loneliness mixed with peace and quite.

Most of the time though when I start to feel depressed and lonely, I start reading, watch a movie, do some work or start cleaning my house (lol.. cleaning would be the last resort though :D). Something though, anything to keep my mind active on something else.
 
Oh, sleep. Yeah, can't forget that. My favorite time of the day. Any time of the day. xD

Reading is for enjoyment though, at least for me. I don't really like to do anything when I'm lonely, because I wouldn't have the energy to do anything at all in the first place. (Except stare, ponder, and sleep.) The forums is a good past time, but I never come here just because I'm lonely. o_O

Actually, maybe I have several times. I know I posted some stuff that was kinda erm...heartfelt? >.<
 
Well, we all post some heartfelt stuff once in a while, even when we're not lonely. I know I've posted some threads that are not even about being lonely exactly, but about something else that was on my mind a couple weeks ago.... =\ Uhm....

Reading is a good option as it allows you to escape reality for a good while, same goes for playing video games, no?
And watching TV, it allows us to at least somewhat vicariously (through another thing or person :rolleyes:) for the time being, so that we don't feel reality.
 
Watching Seinfeld usually does the trick for me even though ive seen most of the episodes a few times already... Love that show...

Or I go for a drive. Usually when I go for a drive my friend would have nothin better to do and we just cruise down to the beach... or we go to the local shopping mall/centre where there is a good chance i'll meet someone I know.
 
hmmm when im lonely i usually turn on my i pod music seems to help so much. Either thaat or il pick up my guitar play some sad songs.
 
I don't even want to know what that is Jimmy. xD

I can only listen to music. =(
I wish I could play it though, I could probably come up with some really good ones if I gave it a try, but my guitar broke and my keyboard is just, well....meh.

I listen to optimistic music most of the time of course, but I listen to sad music...but it's usually sadder than my own mood, that makes it kind of better in the long run. XD
 
I use to cry alot, I shed the odd tear now and then. I would try and sleep it off or try my best to entertain myself with a DVD or game.
