Loneliness
Everybody feels lonely sometimes. But only few of us are aware how important this feeling was for our ancestors – and that our modern world can turn it into something that really hurts us. Why do we feel this way and what can we do about it?

Is Loneliness affected by natural habitat, or lack there of? There was a nature documentary on in the background while i was watching this video, in one of the scenes, a guy was taking photos of the night sky. specifically he was capturing the milky way and was talking about how its almost a therapy for him. It reminded oof me doing the same thing and how when i am out on my own with my camera, i feel possibly the least alone, i understand its anecdote and all but i feel like lack of nature is a big factor in loneliness
Please use birds:)
Thanks for this vid
Can you do a video on the Green New Deal
Social skills class will be a thing in the future, mark my words.
+PixelDude947 watch the video “watch this if ur a true fan” on MaximillianMus’ channel. That’ll answer your question
+See- 3pio Yep. There it is. Thanks for showing the…origins…
Nah, that would mean that schools would have to start teaching useful things, and that ain’t happening.
oh yeah yeah
i need it now though lol
Kurzgesagt!!! I do really wish for you and your team (If you have one) to know how incredible your videos are! Someone showed one of your videos in class a couple years back, and i still watch your videos when they come out now in University. Your diversity of subjects is incredible and your topics that you choose even more!! Even better, you guys do a damn fine job of researching and studying them. This one in particular even struck home a bit, most likely not only for me!! As a student Physicist i really wish to say
”thank you and keep on doing what you’re doing”.
-Your viewers
Kurzgesagt is a team of people there is no one person that is kurzgesagt.
+maxybaer123 Didn’t know!! I mean i sort of guessed it, but cool!! Thanks for letting me know
My life in one video
I hear you my fellow human
Amazing video, I will rewatch it every time, I feel lonely
These guys are better than The Infographics show
Like if u agree
👇
It’s apples and oranges m8. One uploads 2-3 vids daily. The other 2-3 a month. But I do still agree 🙂
Its not the same dude, but if i have to chooss some of the two to stay, i would choose this channel.
Infographics gave me very interesting and useful knowledge
Of course they are, infographics show reads stuff off Wikipedia with few sources, narrated by a lazy and nasally staff person, with subpar barley moving animation.
Yes
Hey, Vsauce, Micheal here, and today we’re gonna talk about loneliness.
Or are we?
DId i see you?
I sometimes like to go and sit alone in the back of the class and take a look at the chaos.
And see who else is doing the same. 😙
Someone’s talking, some studying… It’s fun
Dude that’s the best spot by far XD
Thank you, Kurzgesagt. For everything. 💝✨
What’s wrong with being a furry?
+Spoopy Skellie get out of here dumbass..
Hello piano playing furry!
@Alex Gauvin
What’s wrong with making jokes?
Some people can take offense of the “joke” and how are they supposed to know it’s a joke anyway
You can’t deny invitations if you don’t get any to begin with.
Preach XD
You can’t get invited if you’re not signaling your interests. Join a hobby group if you can find the time.
Good advice but for some it just doesn’t work
+Ethan Alfonso People don’t come to your place, if you already do not have a cliche to hang out with. Also most of us live in places too small for a decent gathering.
Thats my boy!
Shield yourself from all others around you!
I keep trying. I reach out all the time. Nobody cares.
Why should they care?
at least you try
In the video, he said that do it without any expectations. It will actually help you when you don’t get a response
Try new people. There are billions of us, you have practically unlimited supply of try outs. =) try to learn something with people, maybe another language course… Try to join some sport or fan club. What about your hobbies? Maybe games, try to go to a lan house to play together with someone, not only online.
look man… i felt really lonely when i broke up with my exgf, its all right now… i started to feel good again when i realized that if i dont like myself no one will like it for me, so first of all, try to enjoy yourself and discover things that makes you happy as a person, and in the process keep trying!
People treat me like a god.
They ignore my existence unless they need something
r/iam14andthisisdeep
Hey 🙂
I dont want to hurt you and maybe open your eyes if this sits deper than the joke 😉
Think wether you treat them the same way?
Do you only reach out when you feel lonely ?
Do you provide for others and enrich their lifes without the immeadiate demand of reapyment?
I don’t know in which situation you are currently but maybe you are stuck in a place where you push others away 🙂
Hope you have a wonderful day 🙂
ditto
Haha,i feel same
The fact that this is #1 says a lot
This is the zeitgeist we live in. There are tens of millions of people who want to meet others and feel lonely, but feel unable to do so.

>Never get invitations
>Never get asked out to do smth.
>Always feel lonely
>Dont push people aways, people push me away.
>When I msg someone, get short answers and / or ghosted
ORlANNA GRANDE i m so sorry 😐
Hang on
Maybe we live closer. I live in Southern California.
Sounds a lot like our decade.
basically “just talk to someone” sounds good, doesn’t work.
I’m always lonely
R.I.P to all my COD friends who were last online 6 years ago
I didn’t feel like killing myself as much ten minutes ago.. Yayy..
hold on for me ok x
For all of you who watched this video
_cyberhug_
there – you arent as lonely as before
Anyone wanna hang out?
i guess the moral of the story is that life is what you make of it.

That’s very true
