The following info might not work for everyone or in every situation. It might serves best as a kind of inspiration rather than a formula of something.
Loneliness is a major factor that can significantly affect and direct human actions, decisions, perspectives, judgments, evaluations, and more.
When the feeling of loneliness arises, it will act as a trap or jail for the mind and and can lead to irrational behavior. It can constrain one’s worldview, making it harder to approach life with an open, balanced perspective. Any attempt to fulfill loneliness may lead to an endless chain of negative events. It’s a loop of negative feedback that might not easily be broken, an endless hole.
Below are some of the possible ways to deal with loneliness.
You can put your attention in this direction: Start by understanding what’s going on within your mind and subconscious. Try not to deny any feelings and face them. Allow these feelings to happen naturally and observe them. No matter how uncomfortable the feelings may be, just experience and observe them. Let the feeling or emotion flow. Don’t judge it. Try not to restrain, suspend it or bury the feeling. Recognize the patterns. Sometimes, this process might take years to get used to the act of observation, and another several years of repeated observations to recognize the emotional or feeling patterns.
Sooner or later, you will draw many findings about loneliness from the inside out through this process.
Here are some of the findings to be shared with:
You don’t have to seek attention from others.
(I’m not referring to activities such as sales, marketting, etc)
You don’t have to resort to external stimulants (for example, substances or screen time), especially if they don’t align with or originate from your passions.
You may try to seek out your passions. It doesn’t always have to same as others. Believe in yourself and follow your passions. You don’t have to compare yourself with anyone else. Everyone is gifted with something, uniqued in their own way and already valued.
You aren’t necessarily required to demand love from others.
You are already completed as a whole.

Just noting that there are books, many of them, that deal with loneliness.
It is unlikely to be be simple as such expecting a small/quick solution is unlikely to work.

What you call loneliness, I call solitude and I prefer it that way.

Amen, brother.
Nowadays if you have the ability to stay on your own without any sort of distraction, focus on something and actually enjoy that time you're left with nothing but your own thoughts, you're told you're on the spectrum and probably need to be medicated. To which I say, no, that used to be the normal mode of operation for human beings. Society has evolved until that was no longer the case for various reasons, and the biggest offender of them all is the smartphone, which seriously did us a disservice and dumbed us all down.
You have to be able to function without constant external stimuli.

No get a dog and you'll never feel lonely.
Get a Cat and feel rejected, neglected and you're only reason for being there is to serve the feline.

In short, not feeling lonely, isn't it?

Hmmm, I frequently report blog drivers, but you're not new here so I'll let it slide.
I would recommend though that you put this in your CP blog rather than in the lounge -- so it will stick around rather than fall off the page.

I actually did had consulted the CP content management team about before this. The response is while they think this is a helpful post for anyone, the content posted on CP should try to stick to development-specific problems and solutions.
That's why I didn't post this (as an article or blog). I know eventually this will fall off the page. but it's ok

This may be my brain totally misfiring since I can't justify it at all, but... CUCUMBER?

“Cool as a cucumber” could be an unfamiliar simile.
That is my interpretation (after you solved it)

Yesterday I spent in bed, mostly. I had to get up to feed and water the cat and Herself, and several other times to do the bits Herself needs through the day but other than that dozing and trying to find a comfortable position. I think my immune system went "You again? I'll have you cully!" and attacked everything just to be on the safe side ...
Today, I still have aches and pains - back and shoulders mostly - but my head is pretty clear and I can sit at my computer. (Yesterday, I couldn't even cope with the surface in bed!) I've had a couple of paracetamol this morning because I have a really busy day with thing I needed to do yesterday but couldn't (and if you know me, you'd know how rare is it for me to take pills of any kind) but they don't seem to be helping at all.
If you do have the latest Covid booster, be aware you may be out of order for a day or so following - but do have it as the virus itself is the same, but spread over two weeks ...

I had mine the same day as you and still have aching bones ( back mainly ) I've never reacted to any of the others.

Had mine Monday, Tuesday was not as bad as you, but no fun as it affected my breathing. Wednesday was OK. Glad I didn't try for the flu shot at the same time.

Just made an appointment for my 5th jab on saturday, it will be Pfizer this time. Hope I will not have the same symptoms as you had.

I've had Pfizer every time and have never had a reaction until now ( nowhere near as bad as Griff though )
