You are alone. With your description; it's an extreme case you need to address. Calling your own mum once in since months! That's not fair. I don't think there's any point joining any social platform if you don't appreciate interacting with people, maybe with the exception of Nairaland and your biz app. Others are irrelevant to you. As for calls, you could Barr all calls from coming so won't be disturbed. Lol. Well, if you are keen on effecting a change, here is my advice: 1. Learn to appreciate people and what they do no Matter how little it seems , learn to commend them even if you have accomplished such feat many times over in the past.. learn to love more as this will endear you to others including your kindred. 3. Know that life may not continue like this forever. Situations and life's vicissitudes could make you need their help someday in the future, the close bond you form now can be helpful. 4. Try to be humble.

I honestly hate making calls, I hardly call ANYONE, in fact the last I spoke with my mom was 6 months ago... Is worse with my siblings and relatives. I can go a year or more without calling them.

I don't pick any call I didn't expect, neither do I return missed calls.

I hate sending people wishes, be it on social media, text or physical.
All my social media handles are in ghost mode, except my business WhatsApp.

I hardly reply messages on my personal WhatsApp line.

Although I get really busy most times, but I don't
think it's an excuse enough. I've tried changing, but it isn't working.

It seems the only place I reply to people is on Nairaland, I've never clicked a "Like button" on the internet before... I have phobia for it.

How can I adjust? I spend 99.99% of my free time Alone in a quiet place soul traveling to universe.

Jesus Mingled, had friends and disciples. Dont make excuses for your self. man is a social animal, resolve this soonest except you want to live alone for the rest of your life. How do you intend to manage a spouse and have engaging conversations and raise a family, or is that out of your equation?. What you need is to break the spirit of loneliness and fear, there is fear somewhere in side that mind of yours. Go out, meet good people, enjoy this short life make the best of it. Call people even is you dont like them and they dont like you.




You won't get the point... I'm the guy everyone wants to listen to or be with when I'm open for conversation and fun... But that part of me comes occasional. I've met great people in my life, I'm not afraid of conversation. I don't withdrawn myself from conversation IF IT INTEREST me

My mum feels I don't love her that much cos I hardly call her , she even thinks I call my friends more than I call her ( she doesn't know I call her more than I call my friends ). I find solitude with myself and myself alone , as long as there's power , food and internet I can remain indoors forever. I could say I'm asexual , I don't hate sex but I'm perfectly fine without it. I'm by no means antisocial , if I have people around I'm actually normal and you may not know I dread having people around me. My brother you're definitely not alone

Please how old are u?
Do u "work from home"
Which religion do u practice?
Do u have a girlfriend?


Sorry I asked this to see things from another angle cos I once had a friend like u n he stopped doing all these when he got to a particular age
My skill sets are flexible, I can work anywhere... but I choose a full time job for the purpose of dealing with people of different personalities and believes....

As for my religion I was born a Christian, when I came of age... I choose what to believe and what to question.
As for relationship, i'm incapable of loving, but I respect everyone.

My good friend's younger sister whom I had very big crush on and was planning to marry if I make money and she is available passed on since last year but I didn't know because for the past two years or more I have been on ghost mode. Imagine the shock I had when I heard the news this week when I finally came out from my hiding to chat up my friend.

Depress? Naaa! I've mastered the act of dealing with life problems since I was 11, nothing on earth can make me depress. No pleasure, nor pain, nor rejection.

Isolation is a powerful tool to unleash spirituality, the more isolated you are the less human you become and the more spirit you become. It's a key to spirit realm. More powerful than prayers, chants and incantations.

If you can trace some historical spiritual books, most communications with the spirit realms took place in isolated places.
Take a clue from the Bible for references.
Abraham communicate with God in isolated places
Moses as you know always left for the mountains
Jesus always left his disciples behind into isolation when he wants to communicate with God.

Let me not derail my thread

That is where you got it wrong.

Depression is not necessarily as a result of something going bad in your life.

It is a brain issue, some people without any problem in life suffer from depression.

Some events in one's life can also trigger it.

As per being a loner, it is nice staying in your lane no drama, I love it too.

But as you get older and move on in life you realize that you need both human interaction and healthy social skill to have both a healthy relationship and flourishing career.

Unless your family has willed you a fortune such that you can afford to ask everyone to go f*** themselves and surrender yourself with a retinue of house helps. But as you get even older even paid house helps are no substitute to healthy family ties.

I am speaking from experience. The hardship I experienced when I first moved out here was made bearable by my constant contact with friends and family. Then over the years I built a small circle of friends both for social needs. But as we get older I have realized that my circle of friends have started dwindling and the number that seems to grow are family. Uncles, sisters and brothers giving births you getting to rapport with their offspring etc. You will need these people you had better start to build that social circle.

No man is an island. Call and check up on people, especially loved ones, even if they don't reciprocate.

It's an act of love which is very impactful, even if you don't get (immediate) feedback, and it eventually finds its way back to you in ways you can never imagine.

You don't need to be active on social media. However, it's good to make strong casual or business connections on there.

One day, you will lose that friend or family member whom you refused to call nor take their calls while they were alive and you will miss not communicating with them more frequently earlier on....

Everything you listed here are signs of depression and recluse. You may soon have to relocate to the uncivilized parts of the world like the jungle to live alone (like some oyibo men do when they are tired of civilization and when they hate people). You need to talk to someone because this is a risky path you are threading.
In your case, it means you dislike people and hate their company. If a suicidal thought enters your head, nobody will know. Please seek counselling or therapy before it gets out of hand.
Not calling people is not the problem, but taking it too far to the point of not replying your SM messages, not picking most calls (even if it's an emergency), and other interaction with the world around you (even extending it to your own mum) doesnt sound right to me. What if you have a gf? How will you communicate with her? How do you communicate with your colleagues at work or business clients with this attitude?

IMO, you are depressed but you dont know.
God will be with you.

You're not alone. In fact, I can count the numbers of words that comes out of my mouth daily (sometimes none).

But I guess what informed mine was frustration from disappointment and not getting things right as they ought to be.

If things are going on well, some people will even force themselves to relate and talk to you.
