Myths about being isolated as a child

"It's not that bad. This time you're alone and the other time you won't be!" -Not true. After being alone for some time you start getting used to being alone therefore prefer being lonely and pity yourself over being with friends.

"Maybe it's just your attitude! Try to merge with all the others more!" -It is your attitude. You are being different or insecure and others will take advantage of that to gain power. However hiding parts of yourself to "merge" won't help.

"It's okay, because when you're alone a lot you have time to gain skills that others don't!" -Not necessarily. You also might just dwell in your own loneliness and feel worst about yourself until it prevents you from becoming good at anything. You just don't ever think you are good enough.

"Okay, so maybe later you will appreciate friendships more!" -No, you won't. Because after people abound you time after time, the next time they come back, you don't appreciate their "friendship". You just don't trust them. Even if it's not the same people, even when it's people who've done nothing to make you think they will leave you. Eventually? You just can't seem to believe anyone will stay there with you.
