life help: Is life worth living with no social interaction at all whatsoever? - Help.com

If there is potential for social interaction… (i.e. you’re not the last man on earth)… then yes.

Are you talking practically or philosophically?

mmmmmm…… good question….. well………………………………. life must have some interaction, otherwise whats the point, i think we are social creatures for a reason…. then again idk

No.

Humanity is a collective species. A life without any social interaction, while an impossibility unless you’re stranded on a desert island, is hardly worth living unless you get very creative.

hey yea like that movie about the guy who gets stranded on the island and makes the volleyball his friend….. erm……yea…(wow, reading this outloud i sound like an airhead)

I think I would be okay for quite some time if I had a good supply of books, music and a nice garden. My dad used to say that he talked to himself because sometimes it was the only intelligent conversation he could find. I truly believe that he would have found life just fine without the rest of us. lol

No one knows. Asking requires communication and interaction.

Ask yourself if Terri Schiavo (spelling?) should have been allowed to go on living in her socially dead condition.

Whatever your choice, you have your answer.

Personally, I believe as long a person breathes life should go on. But that’s just my opinion, and I know that in many cases my beliefs put me in the miniority.

Oh, if we are talking about a Terri Schiavo type of situation, then I would not want to live. My reply considered only not having social interation with other people. I assumed that I would otherwise be living with my usual abilities.
I am also at a later stage of life than most help.com users. Having had more than my share of interaction already, living without it would be less of a hardship for me than it would for a younger person.
