AUTOPHOBIA - FEAR OF ISOLATION


As she lay on her bed, a tear drop fell on her pillow. Another day of loneliness, of feeling empty. No one to understand her. No one who's first thought was her. No one....She had been lonely for so long that the silence had started speaking to her. Another tear rolled off her puffy face. She clenched her fists and surrendered herself to the darkness of her world. 
I had the idea to write about this phobia ,after one of my friend's opened up to me about her depression....
One of the major causes of depression is the prickling feeling of loneliness. Our brain is such a catacomb of emotions. When one of these emotions starts to dominate ,Our brain tends to overload.
It's a hard feeling to combat on your own, But it's not impossible. 
The moment you start to feel like you have no body to text or nobody who would just make a spontaneous plan  with you, don't dwell on those thoughts. Switch on some good ole Netflix, make yourself something to snack on. Forget your weekly diets and gorge on some craving. Take a long shower. Pamper yourself to some gifts.
Being alone isn't necessarily a bad thing. You need to understand that people will not always be there for you. There are people who love you and who do care for you, even if they aren't there for you when you are in dire need of them. Or even if you don't have someone like that, It does not matter.
In all those catacombs of your mind, make a choice to unleash the pathway that leads to your happiness chamber. 
Music has always helped me, so has writing about my feelings. Find your passion and allow that to be your friend.
