Do you want to escape from the world?

Frankly to say, I have the same idea with you sometimes. In this world, everyone has his/her own small world. when you feel leisure to be alone, then you could keep it for a period of time. you can think quietly and adjust yourself. As a advice, I suggest you come back to your family and friends group when you feel better.

It's not escaping from your life actually. It's living your life to the fullest extent of living. Having to do what you want to do, all by yourself, without any fear of being humiliated or having no one to be your obstacle in doing so...I really kind of like to live life that way once in a while. And I do so, frequently in fact. There are just times when you feel like you needed to have time all by yourself so that you can figure something inside you. Uhm, well, some people call it soul-searching, in fact. Happy MyLotting!

I hope that you are enjoying a peaceful time in your escape from your normal life. I think it is excellent that you traveled for three months last year. I imagine you have happy memories of it. You might not be able to go off traveling again but at least you are having a rest from your responsibilities. I feel much pressure to be well and always available to look after my toddler son. He has spina bifida so he is disabled. In late June my baby daughter was born and then I lost two and a half liters of blood. My blood pressure went dangerously low and I got a high temperature. I kept fainting because I was in such a bad way that I guess my body wanted to shut down to have a rest. I wanted to escape from all the awful things that were happening to me so much. I got taken to hospital in an ambulance. I just wanted to be with my baby girl and be healthy. I had the worry of leaving my toddler son and was concerned about his catheter care. I had much pressure to get well enough to come home to care for him. I heard screaming all night and I felt scared. I had to see all different staff. I discharged myself and went to stay at my local hospital after a few days there. At my local hospital I tried to get well quickly. My mum brought my toddler son to me several times a day so I could do his catheter. When I go traveling I take my toddler son with me and we have wonderful times.

There are really times in our life when we wanted to be just alone. Ive done that too. I went home to my mom's place and turned my cp off for 1 week straight. When i went back to work, theyve been asking if i changed number and i told them i didnt, i just turned my cp off..i wanted to spend more time with my son and my family since i dont usuall get to go home that often. Its not ditching your friends..and if theyre really your friends, they would understand if you dont want to communication with them sometimes or that you needed some space on your own.

Oh gosh how I would really love that my life is so busy and rushed I would truely love to do that believe you me.

I really alone now and feel depressed because I missing my friends and family as I am away from them I really bad feeling I can't go ahead and baffling about me and future.I am unlucky

Hi there Wanyu!Well, I haven't felt that for a long time now, ever since I got married and had my own family but I used to feel the same when I was younger. It didn't mean that I have problems or sad, it meant that I just needed to rest, to get away from it all, to refresh my mind, find inspiration or just be at peace and experience new things and learn new stuff in the process. I think that you're lucky that there are lots of people who cares about you and worries about you. I understand that it can be annoying especially if you really want to be left alone but maybe you can just send them a text message or something assuring them that you're fine and loving your time alone and would get in touch when you need them and how much you appreciate how much they care about you.

Hi friend, One shouldn't think like that.See friend,if you think you are alone,it makes you come down and down throughout the day.Just do good to others.Try to speak to your friends who are ready to encourage.If you take life in a miserable state,you won't get anything.If you take life in a happiest way than it helps you a lot in doing good things.Each one is having their own problem,some are trying to solve their problem and some are going into depression state.But keep one thing in mind if you are in depression,you would lose all the energy in yourself and at one point you even don't know what you should do.See try to communicate with good people every day.See i think you are really a lucky person because atleast they are some friends with you who wants to encourage you.I hope you are more better than others who even don't have anybody with him to encourage or tell good things to them Try to lift the calls and talk to your friends and enjoy with them.Life is small enjoy each and every moment of it.If you have time try to do good things surrounding you. Have a nice day

I think everyone at some point wants to escape from their life. I know at times that I do. I don't have the luxury of just disappearing for a month though. I have 2 children who need me and a job that i have to go to every day. But yes I do know the feeling. Sometimes I just want to get away and start over with a completley different life.

yeah i have been a hermit many times over the last few years. i am one of those people who is content to be alone and not weirded out about the solitude. since i moved here i have not really had contact with anyone i am pretty much a loner, it can be very liberating and you learn a lot about yourself, i guess that is why some people do not like it. i think it is very healthy to take time out to be alone and re-evaluate life in general and all that.

Oh yes, sometimes I want to do that too. Everybody who ever done that have their own reason. For me, it is because I am really tired of these life, maybe I should change the way I live, or the way I look at life. I am (I think) surrounded by many fake people. Sometimes people are nice in front of you but somehow you can see it in their eyes what they really wanted. If you have something that they want, they just want to use you for their own benefit. I, as a friend and human being, am really tired to make an effort to make everybody happy, to satisfy other people. What about me? Actually I am saving money so that I can get away, go for a holiday alone, where nobody knows me and nobody cares who I am and what I have or who I am with. Hmm... Thank you for triggering this discussion! All the best!

hey wanyu311 this is something i am planning on doing very soon keep it up trust me you don't need trouble

Ican say u that we I am on vacations and nothing to do then I do feel that I should escape this world and get myself into another world where I can do things that I like

Don't we all want to escape from the life that we have, even for just a little while? I know I do. There are just days when everything is too much and I wish I can just go away from it all - to breathe, collect my thoughts, and just be me. I haven't tried going away yet, but I wish I could. But sometimes when the need to get away overpowers me, i just go to my special nook in the house, which is my room, turn off my cellphone for the entire day without talking to someone, i just sit there listening to some soothing music, or read a good book or sometimes just stare at the ceiling imagining i was in some island paradise or anywhere else in the world. It somehow helps me feel better. :)

Many a times i too have felt so and terribly wanted an escape from this world. to me the world was a creul place where everyone did selfish deeds and just for their own profit. They don't have any love or care towards the other guyz who are living around. I read a book called "The third level" which is really time travel. A temporary refuge from reality. The character in the story hates the new developments and wish to go back some 150 years back. and finally he does go back. He is happy there and and story ends happily.

No way!I totally expect my life to have ups and downs so I don't mind when I hit the bottomcause I know it'll get better. If the world ends tomorrow, well, I'll be ready but I don't really want it to end any time soon! I'm having too much fun:)
