i think being alone and lonely are two different things, and people are getting them mixed up (both in this video and the comments) alone: people can enjoy being alone, and can be happy doing activities they like alone. solitude is a good thing, it helps us to know ourselves better. loneliness: emotional manifestation; "sadness because one has no friends or company" (definition). loneliness is a feeling: when one feels sad or depressed due to a lack of social interaction. one may have thoughts such as "no one understands me", "i am not important to anyone", "i feel invisible", "i don't have anyone to share my real self with" being lonely is not good for our health, these thoughts can really harm us if we don't express them and talk about this issue. one can be alone WITHOUT feeling lonely the same how one can be with a lot of friends and feel lonely

Exactly this. The experiment in their video got me confused. That is not what loneliness actually means. She is just doing random things alone but does not really show true loneliness. She only experienced mostly boredom as she has no phone or laptop to keep her entertained for 48 hrs.

you know hor , i've been thinking , as an introvert who really needs my alone time , i realise i find it hard to get along with people ( or more like people find it hard to get along with me ) , im quite opinionated , and sometimes i don't understand why people cannot accept strong opinions ..... i guess most people just like very bland and surface interactions ? i guess people like us introverts really truly value honest real interaction rather than surface pleasantries ? what do you think?

this whole documentary seems only relatable to extroverted people who cannot stand being alone for even a day, especially with the 48 hours experiment with the host. Wish the documentary dived deeper on the societal front rather than just giving advice that people inherently know like reaching out / check in on your friends and family.

Hi Lou Er. If you're reading this, thanks for doing this and even opening up with your struggles. We need to normalise opening up because granted everyone is busy with their own lives but sometimes miss what's going on around them. However, i'm not sure about the fact that there are people around us that want to care about us. That's a common saying from people but when push comes to shove or even on a more regular basis, people just dont want to or have the energy to care about others. Hence those who are already feeling lonely take a further step back so as to not impose on others. The part about over sharing is very true but maybe if we can flip to let others be aware of why some people do that than telling those who are lonely to dial down on their sharing because it also takes a lot to open up to people and be vulnerable.

I rarely feel lonely. I still catch up with ex-colleagues, classmates, customers, friends, families, etc. When I pass by a specific place, maybe an ex-colleague or friend rings a bell, I will just give them a WhatsApp to see whether they are free for a coffee, etc. If I have no one to entertain me, I will visit temples do some chanting, go to the library to read a book, or catch a movie .

Its not loneliness. Its that you have not learned to be comfortable with your own company. Younger people are dependent on external stimuli, and therefore doesn't know what to do with themselves when they are by themselves. People say they love themselves, but they can't stand being by themselves. This is a weak character in my opinion.

We should be able to learn how to be comfortable with our own company, but we are not wired to be just with ourselves for a long period. It affects a lot of things, health-wise. You can find Simon Sinek talked a lot about this, and he has a scientific backup for this hypothesis. And the fact we need others to communicate doesn't show somebody is weak. Same as why people need food 1-3 times a day, doesn't mean they are weak compared to somebody who can fast for 40 days. This is more of ad hominem fallacy for what you mentioned here

I think a lot of introverts out there share the same concept that we get drained from socializing and meeting people at a party or some sort of group events. I personally prefer quality over quantity, so I never liked large events where there are a lot of people. Instead, I prefer just 1 on 1 quality time and conversation. Or, I don't mind hanging out with 2-3 close friends that we're all cool with each other. But anything more than that, it's going to be a hard pass for me. You have to ask yourself how many friends do you have in your life that you can trust your life on. If you were to have a kid, can you trust your kid to that friend to look after your kid if something were to happen to you? If you were to hit rock bottom, how many friends do you have in your life that will help you get back on your feet? Most people will say they're your friends, but when it comes to push and shove, they're not going to go out of their way to be there for you. That's just the reality of life. And that's why I advocate for few homies you can trust for a life time vs. "friends."

I'm a Gen X, and I've been on my own for decades. I don't have many friends, and those that I have, I don't tend to meet them or have regular connection with them whether via online chats or talks over the phone. I'm unemployed, am recovering from a couple of mental disorders, so spend most of my time at home. I still hope to get married eventually but I'm so comfortable where I am that even when I match with someone on a dating app, I seldom overcome the inertia to go out and meet them. Rather, I spend my time at home reading and watching stuff online to keep updated on current affairs, current tech, news, developments around the world, geopolitics, advancements etc, even trivial stuff. Basically just stuffing my brain with all kinds of knowledge, general as well as specific. I don't feel lonely. But am I cutting years off my lifespan? Or are Gen Xs immune to loneliness?

I think this experiment needs context. Some people absolutely love being alone. If we try to simplify things. It's an introvert vs extrovert thing. The producer is prolly more extrovert in nature. She could have exercised in her small space to boost the endorphins. I point to another example which is not too far away from us: Japan. More and more people are reclusive there. Alot of them are used to small cramped spaces, and by extension being alone. Overall if you're able to occupy yourself and keep your brain working, you can still live a relatively long life. Quality is subjective. Introverts will class independence and solitude as quality.

agreed! i am more at peace alone than with other people. and the "lonely brain makes you dumber" statement in 6:53 is also questionable. if one keep one's brain occupied with reading stuff, learning stuff, it actually have the exact opposite. i've met literally more than a dozen "lonely people" who are significantly smarter than the extroverts because they use their time to learn stuff. whether it's science, language, or simple practical skills like fixing their electronics, fixing their bikes, cooking, baking, etc. in this digital age you really can learn anything easily. imho it's not 100% about loneliness. it's about laziness. some folks (particularly extreme extroverts) tend to laze around excessively when they left alone... and when they band together, nothing is done and nothing is learned. soo ... yeah... the statement is truly questionable

Well... if you are locked in a room without any entertainment... it is practically a prison. Everyone around me says if I am not lonely going anywhere alone... My answer is obviously no, I am enjoying my time because I have activities and I think it is not surprising that I don't have mainstream social media (Instagram, TikTok, etc.), so I enjoy everything and I just enjoying the experience without taking any photos... which makes people think that I am weird. And... I have been doing that stuff since... I can go outside by myself. I love to go the the movie alone, like it is convenience since I really love watching movie which I may brag that i watch 80% of movies in the theatre between 2011 and 2016. When covid-19 hit, the main concern was money but after I solved it, I really enjoy my time when covid-19, so ... peaceful, I have no bad intention about those who had bad time but I had a great time. Loneliness is worst for social butterfly and I am not the one. The worst part of being a single person is a question about "are you not lonely?", I just... feel that they pity me while they shouldn't, really want to ask them, "Are you not tired to please a lot of people?"

please define more comprehensive about loneliness. Feeling lonely and loneliness are two different things. As for me, I enjoy being with myself. In my solitude, I find more peace than being with others whom I don't or less know. I also have tendency to overshare to certain people (so far only one), but tend to over private to others. And I don't remember that I ever feel lonely for so many years now. In crowded rooms, I enjoy my solitudeness.

Being independent should never be mistaken for being lonely. Unfortunately, I’ve observed that many young Singaporean adults who are neither married nor in a relationship often conflate these two concepts. There seems to be a prevailing mindset that if love or companionship is meant to happen, it will happen naturally, without any effort. This belief leads many to focus solely on their careers or other distractions, only to realise later that they feel isolated and unfulfilled. What’s concerning is that this passive approach to relationships overlooks the importance of actively seeking meaningful connections. Being independent and self-sufficient is undoubtedly valuable, but it doesn't mean shutting oneself off from opportunities to build companionship or find love. Instead of waiting for things to "just happen," a more proactive mindset is needed-one that embraces both independence and the pursuit of fulfilling relationships. We must encourage a shift in this mentality, promoting the idea that while independence is empowering, it doesn’t have to come at the cost of meaningful human connection. With effort and intention, it's possible to balance both, leading to a life that is not only successful but also enriched with solid relationships and a sense of belonging.

feeling lonely is part of everyday life. it depends people to people. some people who are introverts will feel they have no friends at all. every weekend, there is nothing to look forward to. when you question the purpose and meaning of life, you will feel lonely. there are a few ways to help with loneliness. 1. get a pet. a pet will help you to get through your tough times 2. get out of the house even if by yourself. go to a cafe, a park or even window shopping. if you stay at home for too long, you will have lonely feelings if you don't live with someone. 3. be part of a community. depending on your interest, join a yoga class, gaming groups, book club, meditation etc.. you will form friendships and common interest with other people. introverts tend to keep things to themselves and hardly ever to reach out to someone. the road is long, and it's important to recognize when loneliness leads to depression and have suicidal thoughts, that's when you need to break out of it... it's hard, and it's really all in your mind. it's so much easier to be submerged in negative emotions than to give yourself the reassurance that everything will eventually turns out to be okay.

Being alone for 48 hours is not enough. Especially when you know you are safe. People who are lonely because no-one can stay with them cause they have work somewhere else . They actually don't feel safe. They can't sleep peacefully and they miss talking to someone. They feel like if they died at night nobody will know about it😢 . If you choose to be alone then it can be good but if it is not your choice. Then it sucks .one of my relative lives alone cause her son and husband work far away. She feels sad and sick when she is alone. She says she Don't want to do anything cause because of loneliness.

😂 come on, there are lots of lonely elderly when their partner passed away, IMO the Gen Z loneliness is caused by the digitalisation of our society and lack of confidence and naturally more introverts, while in our older generation we grew up without the digital world, where we were forced to train ourselves to come out and interact whether we like it or not and naturally some will get better and others may not. However with Gen Z, given the protectiveness of either their older siblings or their parents while growing up, made them more vulnerable to depression and feel unwanted! If you care to observe, and may be interview the lonely elderly people you may learn a lot more, than locking up yourself for 48 hours, which IMHO waste time, too much is focused on the idea of loneliness. With a smaller family size in these modern days, it’s only natural.

Humans are social creatures. The toxic message out there (and in the comments) that "we should just be happy with ourselves" literally goes against human nature and is very dismissive and damaging to those who are suffering. Its a need like drinking or eating..both things you need something external to fix. Also sidenote: 48 hours is nothing sis.

People need to stop glorifying loneliness. It’s okay to feel lonely and to want companions. A these talks about focusing on yourself don’t fix the issue long term but rather make people more egotistical and selfish. Humans are social and tribal. Social interaction and emotional bonding are what made us who we are.

lonely is someone who like or think to be independent but emotionally dependent, unaware. aloneness is someone who is one with their characters with multi talents where time and space is precious but can spare to others who asked but with limits cos self first b4 others. just like in airplane survival procedure on drop oxygen mask :}

I also feel lonely though I have a family.. but I am a man and thus no one really cares. Society only concern about women.

Don't bottle up your emotions. Find someone that you feel safe to share it with, perhaps your wife? If not, you could always pay for a therapist to confide in.

The loneliness epidemic is a direct product of alienation under capitalism. "Karl Marx's theory of alienation describes the estrangement (German: Entfremdung) of people from aspects of their human nature (Gattungswesen, 'species-essence') as a consequence of the division of labour and living in a society of stratified social classes. The theoretical basis of alienation is that a worker invariably loses the ability to determine life and destiny when deprived of the right to think (conceive) of themselves as the director of their own actions; to determine the character of these actions; to define relationships with other people; and to own those items of value from goods and services, produced by their own labour." But since Singaporeans have been propagandized to defend capitalism at all costs, I'm sure they'd reject Marx's theory. Keep chasing those ephemeral fixes to loneliness that capitalism offers.

It's easy to understand why isolating folks in quarantine was simply an act of human cruelty dictated by sadistic morons and carried out by compliant useful idiots.
