I Survived 7 Days of Living With No Human Connection
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 6 сен 2024
- Since we are all practicing social distancing, I wanted to see how I would handle spending 1 week in TOTAL social isolation. So I spent 1 week without internet, no social media, no phone, and no human connection at all, not even with my roommate Matt.
The goal was to learn more about the effects of isolation and mental health, as well as the importance of human connection.

That's just my normal life

Introvert people: "huh."
Nothing has changed
People with adhd ; eh
idk what both of those words mean someone explain

Ur using RUclips rn tho
I didn't know that, this is a big deal. That is how i live everyday.
Same
Obviously not yesterday if your on yt
Without RUclips too ? 😂 that’s entertainment too
Cant be everyday if your on RUclips
I guess it's diferent. Because you have a cellphone and work to distract yourself. But if you were in a room alone without those things you would be frustrated too.
I became disabled in 2019 and have been alone since then. All my "friends" stopped talking to me and didnt wanna hangout with me since then. I have a dog and she pretty much keeps me from snapping.. but it gets really depressing being alone all day and night, and waking up to just sit alone with your thoughts daily. I got to the point where I stopped dressing up, stopped doing my makeup, stopped doing things I loved like art or even playing video games. I just dont feel drive to do anything anymore, and I feel useless and worthless... 🤦🏼♀️ Depression really messes with you. Idk why I'm mentioning all this right now, I guess it just feels kinda good to get it off my chest, even if no one reads this or I later delete this
What games are you playing?
☺️☺️ dogs are always there
I feel you no one is Alone on this.
You really don't need people around you to be happy specially fake friends unfortunately. I do change my number often and I talk to people I know once every 3 to 4 months. I travel alone and do everything myself. Once you realize how good to be alone you'll be grateful.
Hey! I am so sorry to read this. I know, that dealing with depression is so hard.. and I know, what I am talking about.. but, if you want to be surrounded by people, you have to find that people. We are in the world that is connected (right now, I am answering you from my bed in the Czech Republic😁). So I guess I just wanted to make a point, that all over the world there are wholesome people and you just have to search for them and also people will be searching for you! I think, that you are incredible person, because you shared your story with the whole internet.
I wish you best of luck!

@@WarwickGank I just didn’t have internet. I live in a farm with my animals. I became a star link beta tester, and now I have internet
A lot of ppl say “this is me everyday” not even realizing how much there on social media n how much that counts
It’s a little different when you are using social media as a means to distract you from feeling that loneliness and it really only fills something temporarily...somehow I feel like I’d be in a better way if someone gave me a call and just talked to me instead of getting left on read by an entire group chat! One sided relationships man
@@madssierra7102 soo true bro, no one actually takes the time or decides that they want to talk to me, I can be on social media scrolling to see if anything happens but I do nothing but stare and scroll, it really wastes my time ngl lmaoo

He wasn’t truely alone, he spoke to his youtube audience throughout the whole week
Were they with him?
Yea it wasn’t total isolation like he had the yoga videos, the editing videos, and the uncontrollable outside environment but it’s the effort that matters
He said no human connection... speak to camera or watch video contain human inside it not connection hahahhahahhaa
Meh, without human connection after a while you start talking to yourself anyway.
isolation? pffft, I talk to myself all the time anyway.
Can we all appreciate how his friend walked in literally as soon as 7 days were complete. Like, the second it was over. 👍🏻
agree.... we all need a friend like that....
That is pathetic. I go weeks without seeing a single person. I do not even have coworkers. I am certain I can go two years with absolutely no human contact at all. I could probably go even longer. The most I have done was three and a half months with absolutely no human contact at all, not even letters in the mail, telephone calls, nor world wide web. I barely even felt it. I learned to be completely alone from an early age. Even today, I have no friends, no girlfriend, no aquaintences. In my life, I have only had one friend and one girlfriend. The most miserable time in my life was when I paid attention to some stupid doctors an I force myself to try to exist as a social human. I got lied to, used, betrayed, painfully abandoned, robbed, mocked, ridiculed, abused, and much worse. There were probably 18% good times and the rest were bad times. That was 30 December 1998 to 8 August 2000 at 18:34. I returned back to the life I knew of no social existence and all returned to a very rewarding life. Seven days is something I do without contact many times a month.
@@indridcold8433 Not everyone is autistic bro
@@samdobie6748 Interesting you mentioned that. I was incorrectly diagnosed as autistic. I never really acknowledged the diagnoses. It seems too remotely possible for me to give it much credence. Mental health professionals can not possibly be correct in all situations. I believe I am one that was misdiagnosed. This was the same psychiatrist that diagnosed me with an erroneous IQ score, as well. I have no faith in him.
@@indridcold8433 Why is it pathetic?
People have different necessities in all means, there are people who can't be lonely and some who can't be full of people, the pathetic thing is the people who aren't aware of that, and may hurt another one by not recognizing that, I refer to for example those who (if I understood correctly) do it to you, and now you doing the same by reflecting that.

Kinda makes you think about how prisoners in solitary confinement feel.
Oh shit
That was my first thought. It's not rehabilitation, it's torture. How could that person ever come out normal?
I was thinking the same thing. My brothers been in prison for about 15 years I haven’t seen him in over 20 years. Makes me kinda wonder how different he’ll be when he gets out I always just picture him as the way he was when we were 12-13 years old before I lost contact with him.

I would make food all day
@@mathieuchalmers5808 same
even without phone or wifi, i can. you can still do a lot of things even without social media or people
Getting so much value from this. Oddly enough I decided to delete my “dating apps” after watching this. I wasn’t exactly using them for dating and this made realize I’m looking for something deeper and that wasn’t the way I want to experience it.
After being single for over 8 years I realised I don't really need a partner to be happy so I recently deleted all the dating apps on my phone and the numbers of girls I'd been trying to date. Learning about myself has been quite liberating.
Nice, hows it going now? Jw
Deleted social media a couple months ago and I’ve never felt more free from the trap we put ourselves in, you don’t realize how big a distraction it all is until you take a step back and ask “is this really helping me be better than i was yesterday?”
Did it help you? Lol

Right lol
I dont have wifi im using data connection rn like im in my province rn
My internet is trash normally so I use my data often. As an introvert and an author; this challenge would be a breeze.
When they're away maybe there doing something else like idk read a book
Even commenting here along with everyone makes me feel connected. Social media at least gives us the illusion we’re connecting with people, even though we’re really not.
For a second I was like this ain’t gonna be hard but then he deleted all his apps and no wifi
I literally just talk to my family. I don’t hang out with anyone else except if I’m at school.

Lol
I didn’t believe you at first when you told me you were going in total Isolation but here we are. You’re dope dude
Didn't really believe it myself to be honest 😂
yeah. the only problems are:
-he still spoke to the "audience"
-he heard the environment noises from outside
-he had notifications from his friends
and, most importantly:
*-he knew he had someone to talk to and he made the choice to go in isolation voluntarily, therefore knowing exactly that it would end*
without any of that, isolation can take a really heavy toll on his mental health.
living like this is near impossible.
without *anyone* at all. family, friends, partner, internet, social media, pets, even good memories.
that would've been true torture.
(edit: and no, I'm not implying he should've killed everyone he knows and started living in the woods or on a deserted island to make it more legit, if anyone is wondering. Those are simply the things I noticed.)
I also felt even tho it wasn't true interaction, the yoga vids were kinda cheating
@@AwesomeBauer I agree, seeing another person, even if you can't talk to them, is enough to feel less alone.
The Edit
It's pretty close to isolation but nothing like actual solitary confinement in prison. That's just straight torture. Those people don't even have anything to do. Not even a book to read.
@@willvr4 they have a book to read and they can listen to music
For me this hits such a soft spot for me. When my grandmother passed away I fell into a 3 day depressive episode in college where I literally didn’t do anything really for 3 days. I didn’t really drink water all the much, eat much, and I think I rarely left my dorm to even go to the bathroom. I didn’t check my phone or my classes. In those three days not only did I have to process the very very large loss I experienced but also everything else I had put off due to college and everything else in life. It was and will continue to be the worst 3 days (except the day my grandma died) in my life. Although after almost 2 years of that I recently just took a month break from social media and noticed such a huge difference in my daily mood, activity, and how much motivation I had. Anyway, thank you for making this video! I do really appreciate the time that went into this.
Imagine all human life dissapeared as soon as he finished😭😂
Honestly this is me , sometimes I’m always alone in the room and have no friends. I don’t go out but you do start to feel depressed and bored.
find something to do? I've been sitting at home for the last year and 2 months, never have I felt bored, not a single moment. I do have a computer with internet and a full home gym, but never felt depressed or bored, cuz I have things to do.
neat fact if you stay isolated for 6 years ur depression actually has enough energy to manifest itself as a new shitty bestfriend.
🤣🤣
Adorably said
its really sweet how his roommate come straight up to his room once its done
To be fair, even having a camera to talk to is still a kind of interaction 😅 On another note, I would love to be able to unplug and not have to talk to anyone or work for 3 days. I would use it to meditate, practice guitar, read, and just sleep a bit more.
I would agree! I think it would be different with out the camera for sure
You’re very pretty, wishing you all the best 😄
Not knowing the 7pm cheer was gold. 😂
That was such a weird experience 😂
Why did they do it tho
Nirnatey all around the world people would cheer from their homes/balconies/ yards while in quarantine to show appreciation for the nurses/doctors/first responders who had to put their lives on the line during the corona virus crisis while we were under lockdown :)
@@deealexandra6928 that is literally so awesome
I went almost 2 years. The first year was the hardest. A depression that almost cost me my life twice.
Glad you’re still here with us ♥️
I am on my third year
I only tried once to end it.. somewhat the reality of “the world will just continue” made me realize that ending it would only affects me
Throughout the days i have seen many people living much harder lifestyles and having many issues “physically and socially” yet are trying to fix their lives and those they loves..
I am walking on that journey myself now😁
you have human connection
I cried right before your isolation ended, I cried for all the people that struggle through this without the benefit of choosing it, or knowing that there will be an end to it eventually.
Dam I thought being alone was normal now I feel bad about myself

@@reidb6327 too*
don't be, everyone's built different, being normal is relevant, and frankly a social construct. I love being alone, I push people away to be alone because I hate human interactions, and I never have and never will think I'm not normal. Don't ever put yourself down because someone said it is not "normal" for THEM. Maybe judge THEM for not being "normal" because they can't be alone.

I was quarantined for 3 weeks and in the military they have mental health personnel calling everyday to check if you’re doing fine. Me being an introvert didn’t think much of it until I got out of quarantine and was like “ ooohhh it’s because most people can’t live without human interaction”. It was a great break from work.
This is an extremely relatable video as someone dealing with agoraphobia. It’s been a huge chunk of my life now and I can’t wait to get out there and trying to be brave enough to make connections with people.
Social media has helped me get to a point where I’m not as scared of other people but it is something that sucks you in and can have a huge negative impact of your mental health.
Being stuck inside for so many years it’s a double edged sword really. I need it to have any semblance of human contact but it also harms me; finding that balance is super hard but I keep trying to find it.
Anyway thank you for the video it was great and I’ve subscribed so I can catch more.

When you go to prison voluntarily for 7 days

i put this as a rule for me one time, it works for a while XD
You talking about going through this experiment and me realizing this is how I live my life everyday. It is making me think that I need to change something in my life and I need more human connection.

I do this for months at a time. My only social interaction is when I say “Thank you. You too.” to the cashier at the grocery store when they tell me to have a nice day once a week. My only family I had is dead or alienated and I have no friends or significant other even though I tried to. The RUclips comment section is the only other place I put my thoughts out into the world but besides that I could die and no one would find my body for months. I don’t even care if I die because there is nothing to live for if I can’t experience my life with someone. I’m just surviving.

I’m 28 years old and moved back in with my parents because of severe depression. I have interacted with my mom, dad, and sister only for the past year and 2 months. I went to get lunch with a friend ONCE and felt so uncomfortable. I wish I could get my brain fixed
Damn
Did you feel uncomfortable going outside or being with him ? I don't know know how you could feel uncomfortable with a friend
i feel the same way bro.. i can only feel normal when i drink a lil before hand
@@hopelove897 I got divorced because my ex husband got someone else pregnant, so my mind kind of makes me feel like everyone is a traitor and a backstabber. Even though my friend was there for me, she just talked about HER own problems the whole time and I felt like she was wasting my time and not listening to me. Depression can make you feel and see things that aren’t really there. So I just distanced myself from everyone because I feel like everyone has bad intentions. I’m seeing a therapist next week
@@justme2121 Best of luck, hope it goes well
being an introvert helps...sometimes i get bored and take a walk, but im cool with being alone.
Nothing wrong with alone time, solitude is super important for us as well 😊
No
None of you do this everyday if your sitting here watching this on the internet
Its crazy to think how everyone takes these things for granted. Like for instance, clapping for different reasons, everyone in America, Italy, England etc did it and it just shows how much we can all come together and how important interaction is

Does anyone know what the meaning was behind the 7:00p.m “celebration”
it was an applause for healthcare/essential workers :)
@@champwamps ty i was wondering lol
@@nmsfa0 me to lol
It’s just I’m a teen rn n I’m becoming a adult n it’s just like I miss when I was younger I’m just sad mad confused just not how I was before just felt like I could say it in these comments
I feel u. Something doesn’t feel right idk what.
Same
Ok these three people are my people what u just said was BIG facts. Time keeps going on and u just miss everything u used to be and know
Same bro I feel you
"Happyness is only real when it it shared"
Damn......
Introverts: You gotta bump up those numbers those are rookie numbers
The part where you talk about living like a kid. That guy hard. I’m almost out of high school and I miss the days in elementary school and middle school. Now with corona going on I am missing it soooooooo much
fr tho i had to screen record it it hit so hard
I got grounded years ago, and I had to stay in my room for 2 weeks.
I could go eat obviously.
"Even Matt is clapping right now" wait a second...
I'm a mystic, I've spent most of the last 5 years like this on purpose. Once you master yourself, Life is amazing.
I just really need to know what the whole neighborhood was doing making all that noise
The real question: why was everyone going crazy at 7 am
I wanna know too lol
I really need to no expecially sense he does it to and has no clue what he's cheering to 🤣
In my country also we did the same but only single day. Just to appreciate medical staff, police team and other government officials who were working during pandemic.
@@anxious3mpath it's to cheer for the front line workers, cuz shift work is usually 7 to 7.
I used to average 9h a day of phone with 8-12 h of work a day at the start of pandemic. Safe to say i was kind of a night owl haha
You should do this again, but on a camping trip. Out in the woods. I think it would be easier because you have to find wood, make fires to cook and so on. Please try it.
why did he have to show him going in the shower 💀
Because he can lmao
No big deal
If I can play video games and listen to music I’ll survive otherwise I will cease to exist. But also the cutest thing was him leaving Matt some cinnamon buns and his reaction
You could play offline games
And you could maybe do music because he had like yoga speaking so you could count music as a non contact with humans
@@flamez_177 yeah that’s true!!! I don’t play online games as it is so that’s really effective! And music is a great source of going thru the motions of feeling :) thanks for the reassurance tho! I’m glad how I feel makes sense!
as someone who gets deeply depressed when alone this has hit me hard i almost cried here just thinking bout this i have almost no friends and the friends i do have i havent seen face to face in about 2 months i have also almost given up gaming which is my only true way to feel like im worth something ive given up each day but i try each time to forget what happened before and try again yet im still having issues i cant play games on my own or i get into such a state that i will lay down and just cry i dont want to have that happen i want new friends that will be there always
Hold on buddy. It will get better. I hope you'll find new friends soon
One day you’ll look back and marvel at how you had no clue how much better things were going to get. Google free therapy or hot lines and talk to someone, just venting to a stranger anonymously will help. You got this!
stay strong, brother. Dont be ashamed to use a hotline or just call/text/facetime one of your friends. Remember that better times are coming. Isaiah 40:31 says, "But those who trust in the Lord for help will find their strength renewed; they will rise on wings like eagles; they will run and not get weary; they will walk and not grow weak".
Really? I have been alone for 6 years.... Last surviving in my family, and no friends around anymore...is life as one grows older... You just get on with it. Good thing I like myself 👍😉😆😅😆
How old are you?
