Alone versus Lonely

I can count on one hand, with the thumb and pinky out of the equation, the number of times I’ve been lonely. I would need to use my hands and feet and those of a few family members and friends, to count the times I’ve been alone. Are you feeling lonely or alone today? Be sure to make the distinction between the two. If you’re feeling lonely, think about the reasons why. Is it that you’ve isolated yourself, or do you have trouble making friends? Is your loneliness self-imposed? If your loneliness is a symptom of a medical or psychological condition, ask for help. If it’s not, find someone to talk to or get involved in an activity that will allow you more interaction with others. If you’re alone and you like it, enjoy the moment because it may not last very long. Appreciate the solitude of the moment.

About Me

My photo
I am Dr. Darnita L. Payden, Executive Director/Owner of Dr. DClutter™ Life Management, a division of PreciousOnes™ LLC. I have a Ph.D. in Counseling Psychology and over 20 years of experience working to help clients discover their strengths and talents. Having worked as a therapist, college professor, grief specialist and trainer, I have encountered in my journey many of the issues my clients may face. I have a sincere desire to help you find clarity, organization and independence in your life and environments. I know that life can be hectic, but I desire to help my clients bring as much order, peace and enjoyment back into their lives as is possible. What separates me from the norm? I focus on the client from a holistic perspective. I realize that most people desire a functional and an organized life, but may simply need support, understanding and information about why they have the habits or tendencies that have led to disorganization. I do not perform “quick fixes” or provide “one-size-fits-all” guidance, but I strive to provide strategies to my clients that will be life changing and useful for a lifetime. Dr. DClutter™ is a name well earned!!
