“Human connection is important to happiness” and “you need to find happiness within yourself before you can enjoy human connection” cannot be true at the same time in my opinion. They always say the second one when you’re lonely

Human connection IS important for happiness, but it shouldn’t be what makes you happy to begin with. In fact, recent studies have shown that your diet and time spent in social media have the biggest impacts to your happiness and mental health. Eat better, surround yourself with less drama and bullshit as much as possible, and find happiness within yourself SO that you can enjoy human connection. Most people don’t explain it properly and our parents didn’t teach us these things.
