Table 5.

Extract from informal forums of a psychology website.

User 1 I am a lonely person and I seek solitude. Although I feel an initial relief, it turns into sadness afterward. Why do I keep doing it then?
User 2 The youth of today is confused, we are unable to find an identity. In the past, human beings experienced similar feelings, but they didn't get lost in them and didn't see them as a problem. Today, we find everywhere problems that need to be solved. Loneliness is not a problem. Yours are not problems, they are normal things. If you go to consult a psychologist, they will find you a problem, but I would like to know what normality is.
