Feeling Alone (New Mindset)

Back from my short vacation. The video is me talking about "ME", but 5 tips to deal with loneliness and isolation are down below.
1. It's ok. Take advantage of the alone time and figure out why you feel alone. Understand your situation and feelings. Create a plan. Take a break from social media and work if can/have to. Work on yourself, don't worry about others for the time-being. Get into a "relationship" with yourself.
2. Pick up a new hobby/expose yourself to something new. Stay active/do an activity that you can do alone with/around other people (like you don't have to interact, but you're around someone). Travel, go for walks/hikes, exercise, do yoga/meditate, change your diet, get some sun and listen to your favourite genre of music.
3. Do something meaningful like volunteer somewhere or even simpler, hold the door for someone, smile, say "hi, good morning/afternoon, thank you." etc." Also be kind to yourself. Practice positive self-talking/thinking. Don't be too hard on yourself.
4. Adopt and take care of a pet (when you are somewhat "ok/getting there"). They'll help reduce your stress, anxiety, depression and boost your mood.
5. Take it slow, but try to connect with some people (close friends/family or counsellor) you can trust. It's understandable to be hesitant to let things out, but if it's hurting you, find someone to confide in. Eventually meet new people. If you're "missing" someone in person, try to stay connected via social media, call, text, face time. If it's over a break-up, give yourself time to heal. Don't try to patch things up right away, understand why you broke up. You decide if it's worth fighting for or moving on (for the both of you). If it's someone who has passed away and you were really close to them, it's ok to feel things. You go at your own pace. Talk about it. When you're ready, give yourself permission to be happy again.
There's tons of other coping mechanisms you can search up and find online. Don't give up, even if it's your fault. Acknowledge, forgive, move on.
