history: For a long time I lived out in the middle of nowhere far away from many people. My friends and family were very far away and it felt very overwhelming sometimes. I'm much better off now but I just got out of a time of my life where I was isolated out in a rural area away from a lot of people. that can be tough but it also can be great to have time for yourself At first I felt that way_comma_ but over a period of time it can get very overwhelming.
current: i can see where isolation can be overwhelming and the need for social contact is desirable and needed
next: I did try to keep busy to keep it from setting in but it got to be too much sometimes. I'm glad that I am away from that.
