Interesting to me that the responses so far are so polarized.

To me, there’s a distinct difference between isolation and solitude.

Isolation is avoiding people because of your fears, anxieties, or resentments. Unhealthy.

Solitude is choosing to be alone because you truly feel happier and more at peace in your own company. Healthy.

Sometimes I feel both ways and it’s hard for me to differentiate.
