Ive been in my room for 4 years and 3 months. Only time I contact people is through the internet behind a keyboard.

Hi so you go to the bathroom in your room. Oh this is a joke right?

10 years no one is my friend

Complete isolation for me would be a bit over 3 months in the Carpathian Mountains, beautiful place. Forgot to speak a bit when I went back, words where a bit harder to pronounce and sometimes I would have to take a 1 sec brake or so to remember how to pronounce more unusual words. I got back to normal fast do, less then a week. I am a talker, if the Hound would be around me he would die from a ruptured stomach(if we also had chicken to spare of course).

Has there been any studies examining the difference between introverts and extroverts? Surely the introverts would last longer without going nuts

The horror...

Real Ramiro Perez haha!

Not isolation cause you still had the guy from the video talking

Same

I spended a decade of time to watch porn

100% being isolated in the world will still have great affects of social skills & loneliness but won't actually make somewhat become completely insane

Natearl13 thank you. Finally someone who understands

Being introverted is not the same as total isolation.

Mark John Smith you’re right it’s not. But it is the nirvana of true introversion.

Video: man spent 43 years of isolation Me: challenge accepted!

It doesn’t matter how introverted you are. You need human contact

What about noww

i too wanna live alone in my life.

You guys dont get it.

How bout nowww in this virus

If I had to I would.

Seby 666 illuminati: don't move!!!

But if you’re using the Internet and have acquaintances, That’s not being isolated. Now stop being a baby.

But there's still electrity,I would watch TV or play meh offline games

I agree . It happen to me once . I cried for 3 min . My internet came back on 30 min later . I had to to call my Internet provider. Safe to say the worst three minutes of my life.

Jesus Christ yes he’s “meen”

If you spent time in solitary in a prison then it means you are an absolute idiot. I’m glad they threw you in there. What did you do? Steal some candy?

What’s our country

Aww....

Harrison Ressler agreed

I'm a criminal justice major, and extended periods of solitary confinement are definitely something we should do away with. If someone is too dangerous to be in the general prison population, they should be kept separated from the rest of the inmates physically, but they need some type of human interaction to keep them from going insane.

This type of punishment is not just cruel but possibly the worst a human can experience.Even if someone is tortured they would either die or their body would grow used to it.

Maverick44 Also a criminal justice major here. If somebody is really that dangerous then why not just execute them?

Chris Botos Well if you don't commit a crime then you will never have to experience this.

Because with Internet you're not really alone.

Your hell would be a world without internet

Kind of hard to keep your sanity when you do it for 43 years

“WILSONNNN!!!!” 🏐

Anand Sharma omg so long

He always lives in isolation

Different form of isolation. That was complete sensory deprevated isolation, it's a million times worse then purely social isolation.

For some reason I wanna try that too.

Hey, Michael, Vsauce here.

Thats exactly what I thought. The main problem is not the lack of human contact, but the lack of stimuli, as in the case of the prisoner.

And yes, prisons are not a place to reinsert people, but a hell of torture, both psychological and mental, which in my opinion is cruel.

Not only does the spiritual seeker desire the isolation, but he is often well prepared for it mentally and physically after countless hours of meditation and introspection in a non-isolated environment. Throwing a criminal with already severe psychological problems into solitary and total isolation is totally different than throwing a monk, seasoned meditator, or anyone with a quiet mind and deep inner peace into such isolation.

Jacob IAm exactly

I wonder if prison is supposed to punish people or correct their behaviour... like you said, isolating a prisoner would just make them more mentally unstable and when they emerge from prison, they might be bigger criminals than before.

Dont worry I'm with you

BikeStuff How do you know you still aren't doing that? Maybe youre just insane and none of us and this exists

Where were u going

Lots of sensory input from scenery and driving is an activity to keep you occupied, if you really want to test yourself go sit in your bathroom for 48 hours with no electronic devices, reading material or anything to keep you occupied

@@Impetuss i would just sleep

@@artizzy7020 I don't think u would be able to sleep for 48 hrs straight

Internet is a neverending source of stimuli, Although being online every single minute of free time for the past 4 years I haven't experienced boredom... I'm not saying that I like this life

combra studios I'm not bashing on you but dude, you should seriously enjoy life to the fullest. Only life we get so use it and live with no regrets. Trust me man, if you continue to live like that, you will regret it when you are eventually older or on your death bed. how old are you if you dont mind me asking?

THX for asking dude, I'm 23 and talented in engineering but have a terrible habit of delaying every task because I don't want to do it. Being aware of the consequences and stressed about future is something I've pretty much got used to so it doesn't drive me to change, sad that I've become one of the people I once used to look at with hate and incomprehension. But don't worry, there is still a little bit of hope

What other things find your interest? If you are the athletic type you could go join a sports team especially since it is summer now. Or something with the outdoors, go on tinder and swipe away lol, it will get you something to do and you may meet new people to do things with. I also know that If you are a little on the heavy side, try working out, it may be fun. I guess im just saying that you should live a life you want to live man still young and time will fly. I'm 20 by the way.

Evan How did we all live back in the days when the net did not even exist?

Because being nice isn't "tough enough"

@Rich true

@Rich Also because, he might have killed someone

Ikr Sure maybe it would be better off without him but why would u want to inflict such mental abuse to someone, no one on earth deserves that kind of punishment. Simple actions like these make me angry, idk why, maybe its bcuz I hate seeing people get abused?!

Sometimes they are so dangerous it is for everyone’s safety to keep them away from nearly everyone.

Sam Tabatowski I've lived without a social life for 18+ years . Although I've been living with the freedom to go outside and do things, go wherever I want & buy myself stuff. I'm I can have my "sanity" intact for that situation I described being indefinite. *IF* It's like anything posed in this video. Just give me the internet, T.V. and constant communication with a child I can sponsor though World Vision {with gifts being sent with my letters on my behalf, with chance to meet one another of course} *AND* I'm sure 100% I won't *EVER* go crazy at all. Even if that pure isolation is permanent. 🤔😎😧

I love how the guy above completely missed the point of the video... Bro, we are talking about complete isolation and not living off as a hermit, having access to entertainment and other convenience is completely different than being completely cut off from outside world

username1nmillion We are talking about complete sensory deprivation, not you living the good life.

username1nmillion wow you fucking idiot. When isolated you also don't have entertainment. It's just you alone with you thoughts. I know this for I was isolated for 6 months. (Not completely isolated but I couldn't get out of my room and I would usually entertain myself with whatever was available) and I'm telling you it's living hell. You start talking to yourself you slowly start losing your mind. Now this is just partially isolation now imagine isolated COMPLETELY.

username1nmillion. Surviving Complete Isolation is impossible and If any human on this planet can do this he/she for sure have to go through extreme mutation in DNA.

Sayan Mallick ICSE student?

Yes. My friend.

Great story

Sayan Mallick yes indeed, read it in class 2 months ago.

I'm an ICSE student too That was an interesting story The person only needed to spend 5 years in solitary confinement but his stupidity and arrogance caused it to be increased to 15 years Its quite sad that he didn't get the money after suffering for all those years

Dazzling Duck LOL

@Mike ferrari Ferrari where the hell are you If you kill everyone its like lunch detention or less

Oh damn... didn't know that. We really need to put an end to privatized prisons.

BEAST HAZARD / Hot Springs AR I always say that but then people call me anti-capitalist. I’m all for the free market, but this is essentially the same as vigilanteism and you can see the horrible consequences. Prosecution is something the government should do

lee Roberts The worst ones are Especially because those private prisons are rewarded for the amount of criminals they have, so they’ll keep the people longer than they deserve and put them in solitary for the smallest things

Sparka J I see your point, but keeping someone alone for days, weeks, months, or even years is beyond horrible.

When I got accused for a high profile case. I was Q15 status (FL) and never was suicidal....no history... spent 48 hours in solitary confinement. No bed, no cloths, just a suicidal vest. On the 2nd day it was rough. No one would tell me anything. No brush teeth, no shower...only food but not humane... So I can only imagine anything pass a month

Thaddeus McCaustland u can’t sleep forever

Trust me, you wouldn’t.

Thaddeus McCaustland your body and mind would eventually lose concept of time in a setting like that and because you don’t have a schedule or anything to adhere to. You would definitely go insane during your waking moments sooner or later and your body would keep you from going to sleep so easily the more time you spend in that kind of setting

even the most introverted person can’t stand isolation for too long

All y’all wooshed

Language Nerd yeah these were social people i mean like come on the first guy had a wife and the second guy was a comedian. Honestly as long as I had everything I need I wouldn't be find by myself and if things did go down south I wouldn't mind

what about solo sailors who are isolated for days on time travelling the world on their yachts. How come they dont go insane? Making matters worse they can experience anxiety and stress because of rough seas and storms.Thats ten times as worse than staying in the dark for 48 hrs. I would actually enjoy the free time and think about life and sleep.

Language Nerd That's introverted

Sometimes I talk to myself, is it sign of insanity? Those sailors also talk to themselves, while writing down their adventures in the diary.

Language Nerd and that kind of people includes me.

Aaryan Ramourti TARS

I don't know if it was the same guy, but I read about a guy who did about the long. He was involved with the Black Panthers and got like ten years in prison for shoplifting. While in there he was accused of attacking guards multiple times and also other prisoners during riots (when it is hard to know who did what.) He did that huge amount of time in solitary confinement, then was let out into the general population. But they knew that there were guards, white supremacists, and other black guys that hated him, so within a year he got killed. Anyway, that is one example. But sometimes it is total BS. One guy did a long time in solitary and then that time was extended because he had a book by a political activist who escaped from prison. But that book had been authorized for him to have. Anyway, you can only put somebody in solitary for stuff they did while already in prison. You can't be sentenced to it for what you did outside.

The sad truth is that I'm a hate filled murderous man...but I don't act on it.

I think a person who is self reflecting can stand more then a hour in a isolated box.. when all you hear is your breathing and heartbeat.. nah man I would go apeshit ASAP

Karot of Mysto I think I had sleep paralysis and it kept making me have horrible nightmares because it made me fall asleep.

Karot of Mysto You may call me edgy but I don't have any fears, I have sleep paralysis alot and I think of waking up instead if anything else. I have hallucinations alot but I learned when something is real or not.. Death doesn't concern as much, I'm concerned for how I die. I want to die naturally.

Karot of Mysto It's easy.

its a vicious cycle

Karot of Mysto you shouldnt fear death it is a natural part of life

Yes, I agree. You can just close your eyes and pretend it's not happening. Requires training,though. About 20 years training non-stop.

That's actually a really small minded comment

You try it then...

@Alexander Della Torre I already have done it you got too have a hobby something you like doing reading or writing & exercising & listening to music songs I thought I never would've listened too if I wasn't in isolation.

I partially agree with you, however, you still need to be physically prepared as well. Your body is not made to sit in isolation for long periods of time. Your muscles become weaker, the heart has to work harder, and overall your body is exhausted trying to stay alert. It just wears you down. Personally, I would not survive very long in isolation and need sensory stimulation.

Diego Ayala why can't i be you

Now the question really is, do you have a pc? Do you have a TV? Do you game games to play? Do you have a kitchen to make food at? Do you have a pet? Do you have the ability to walk to another room? Do you have the ability to tell time? Do you have the possibility to walk outside if you wanted to? If any of the answers are "yes", then it wasn't isolation on the same level as described in the video. End of story. Being alone at home isn't like being closed off from other people. The thing is, being "isolated" as in the video, isn't about being alone, it's about having "social" limitations. You have the ability to just open the pc and send a text to your buddy, and bam, you're now social. The brain is stimulated by social interactions, whether or not that is through the pc, the tv or at a café.

Because your in an environment that you're used to, these people live in isolation in new places and barely with any items to keep their mind busy.

Tony Soprano I talk to myself alot, don't care for it. Better than having to deal with real emotions from real people.

Tony Soprano How exactly did you ostracize yourself from society? Where did u go? Jail?

I was at sea

About the same I want forced into it I chose to do it but the talking to your self m,losing track of time, and for me always thinking there was something around me was bad 3months alone

Tony Soprano I have a lot of social interaction but still talk to myself a lot.😅

It's not your personality that gets u, it's your brain. Your brain is the social creature, not u. Your brain will go nuts without sensory perception. Period. It's like a computer with so much processing power but zero data. Zero data! It'll start to generate data from stored memories and that's why you Start hallucinating. The sound of a rat will be pleasing to your eyes. I wonder if you'll start licking the floor and walls for sensory perception

Bleank Dallas but the brain is you

5000mahmud Nah! I don't see it that way. You are only the conscious part of your brain everything else is the brain. It makes you feel what it wants, it makes you do what it wants. And u av to exert an enormous amount of will to reign it in. This may be explained by the concept of ego, superego and id

Bleank Dallas concious = you anything else is not you

5000mahmud I guess you can summarize it that way.

STUNTS Me

Али Бахшанде You are telling me that in your entire life you’ve never wondered “I wonder what would happen if I jumped off a cliff”?

STUNTS not as an option but accident, somewhat yes. I just meant I see much value in life.

I don't think about suicide, why is it that alot of people on the internet seem suicidal?

The thought "What if I didn't exist?" is a very human one. It doesn't mean you don't see value in life. It is just apart of the human condition to wonder if we had never existed. Also the internet is a great place for people who are depressed to find comfort by occupying their mind. Most people Ive heard say "I never would kill myself it's fucking stupid who would want to die." Also have a comfortable life, were raised by two parents who loved them, or are raging alcoholics/sex addicts/pot heads. Nothing wrong with substance use but it is escapism. Go live poor in a slum in India with a guy made out of your shit and I bet we would be watching you swing from a noose in 6 months.

There's already channel that dose that. It's called story booth lmao

In my opinion, the lack of human contact is not the problem, but the lack of stimuli. In the example of the prisoner we see how he really goes crazy, but the Buddhist, even in the absence of human contact has different stimuli such as survival.

Damn how did you fix yourself?

MaLJaY Worldstar Just...did. Idk really, started to have a teacher come homeschool me and she had the goal of getting me out the house. Did some gradual exposure I guess would be the best way to explain. Still don’t leave the house much because I don’t have much reason to.

Well thats a shame for both of us im the same situation except the thought of social anxiety does not exist in my culture so my parents don't even understand a thing about this.

MaLJaY Worldstar Damm, that’s rough. As you age it will get better, I didn’t expect it to but I’m much better than I was before and ageing is probably the thing that I could pin it on.

Adam Woo lsd ego death

So like not think at all?

Observe the thoughts as they come up but allow them to pass

This is true, but is much easier said than done. Even a seasoned meditator would have difficulties with being in solitary confinement for years, not to mention decades. You can try it out for yourself in a non-prison environment and see how long you can fare.

Yeah but u wouldn’t

aedivian Can I get what you have please? Pass it over!

I would not recommend avoidant personality disorder for anybody. It usually lead to a very socially isolated life with little prospect of finding friendship or love.

And yet by being compelled to share I would position that you also need social interaction in your own way

Of course, humans is social animals. I get some socialization online. But still, online interaction is not the same as a friendship where you can actually meet them and have a laugh together or do fun stuff like travelling, going to the beach, playing sports and whatnot. That's things I sorely miss but I dont miss it so much that it drives me crazy. But I suppose we humans have different tolerance levels, some might snap and develop severe mental disorders in just a year of living like me.

aedivian I'm confused. What is exactly happening in your mind that keeps you from doing anything social? Can you elaborate? I'm genuinely curious.

pecu alex yeah. Anyone can adjust to that, but complete lack of senses isn’t natural, which is why people go “crazy”.

Everyone is social. You're incorrect. Solitary confinement provides no true social interaction or anything similar whatsoever. Living alone in the mountains you here weather and hear and see other living creatures daily no matter what. Your mind is stimulated by social interactions around you constantly

YaBoiOof not really. Yes everyone is “made” to be social but you can simply override this by not speaking. It isn’t hard to grasp this idea. And when I refer to everyone not being social I’m not talking about total isolation. There’s a difference between antisocialness and complete isolation.

It comes down with what is the definition of being normal.

Give me what you're on
