Isolating = “burning all your possessions and going to live in the woods”, not “relaxing at home by yourself”

And I know what post this was in response to. The same person left a very similar comment to the one I quoted under a post which was the OP talking about experiencing isolation

Isolating = you are actively avoiding social interaction or not seeking it out ever Social interaction is important it will help keep you sane.

Basically telling the person that they’re not actually experiencing isolation because they’re not in the woods with no possessions.
