Have been in a similar situation before with a neighbour about 7 houses down, except dog was chained up outside without adequate shelter in all weathers. 'Owners' or 'Guardians' just said "she's a guard dog" when I knocked on their door asking about her. No respect or consideration for her safety though. Eventually took the dog and found her a home very far away (with the help of a few like-minded friends). Its difficult being right next door though so you might need someone else to do the deed. (Please feel free to delete this comment!) If you tried the face to face method and nothing is changing, they clearly arent conscious of the dangers the dog faces. They may have big trauma or addiction issues. In my opinion you did right returning the dog. If they didnt leave the dog out, you wouldnt have to go in?! 😂 In the UK nowadays its not safe (its never really been safe) for dogs to be out alone for various reasons. Ireland for example though is still like in the 90's, dogs roam often or take themselves out for a wander. My concern is that if they dont let the dog out, they will never walk the dog (another set of worries). Best of luck, if you were local, I'd help😅 From a highly empathic animal rights activist and animal accomplice vegan of 20 years😊 (veggie from age 9) And fellow dog walker/sitter, animal obsessive for life! Always adopt, don't shop! I have always rescued and fostered dogs, the one who lives with me atm is a failed foster 😅 he was too sensitive and intelligent, I couldnt risk him being neglected again. Go raibh maith agat (may you have goodness) And Thankyou for your work 🙏💜💎

Thank you

Bless you for creating this channel and this community. I just came across your video in my feed and listened to it out of curiosity about the title. Little did I know it would speak to me on such a personal level. I am one who chooses solitude because I either feel others' emotions too deeply, or I get overwhelmed by having other competing energies around for extended time. 90, maybe even 95% of the time, I choose solitude and enjoy it. In those moments where the silence gets deafening, and I feel myself slipping into depression. At those moments, I remind myself why I choose solitude and how I've either entered into or remained too long in unhealthy relationships just to have someone around for the low moments. I also either write, paint, sew, or do something creative to release those expressions of loneliness I am feeling. Where I used to try and mask my low moments and force myself to cheer up, I no longer do that and I allow myself to feel the feelings I feel and ask myself why I am feeling those feelings. Through those actions, I have learned so much more about myself and released a lot of childhood and other traumas. I have curated each room in my house to speak to different aspects of my ebbs and flows, so even if I am not willing to get out of the house, I can change my mood by moving to another room. Thank you again for this space 💓🙏🏼

Thank you!! I resonate with everything you spoke about.

I have only experienced loneliness when I have came out of a relationship. After about 2 months the empty feeling disappears. Not been in a relationship for many years now now, and friends have their families to keep them busy. I feel comfortable being by myself but it would be nice to have some close friends again or even married.

You're absolutely right. I have to be with someone that gets me. Appreciates me. I'm very lonely these days. Just got out of a Relationship with a toxic person of year and a half. It ended right before Thanksgiving. The holidays were horrible for me. I fell into depression. I'm still hurting but I'm slowly coming out of it. It's gonna take some time but I hate feeling thus way. I'm hurt from a Relationship and alone.

Wow, I feel seen. Thank you 🤎 Honestly, I get tired of self soothing activities but trying new things helps give me something to look forward to

Finding your videos helps Me feel “seen” after 46 years of living. Thank you. ❤

" maybee it last an hour, maybee it's last a day" at this point I jokingly said to myself may it last 3 days and Vital responds with " maybee it last a week?" I about died😂 been there.

Wow, amazing description of my feelings.. i just subscribed...thank you brother...❤

Rants and rambling Love it! Don't know if I chose isolation, but rather forced into it due to society , I absolutely understand you, Germanie, must be my brother from another mother. Great great video here, my guy. This is so on point!

I am a singer and I’m drawn to learn more about sound healing. Thank you for this💯❤️

Thankyou good advice ❤❤❤Nature is my best friend hobbies, poetry, ect and cooking eating well much love H xxx

Doing the same. ❤

I absolutely feel the same way. I need to be in my own solitude to recalibrate and get back my peace. I enjoy my own company and need authenticity around me. ❤ Some People always think I’m sad, but I am just being me (I now have 2 daughters that keeps me occupied) yet enjoy my alone time. I relax, read, look online, working out and build up an energy to be around people outside.

In Las Vegas, it's a no-go for dogs to roam off-leash in public spaces. Owners are supposed to keep their dogs leashed unless they're in designated dog parks. Letting a dog run loose is actually a misdemeanor, which could mean fines or even jail time for the owner. You've tried the friendly route... These are my suggestions: Document Everything: Keep a log of when you see the dog running loose, any interactions you have with your neighbor, and any incidents that occur. Contact Animal Protection Services: Since talking hasn't worked, it might be time to get the authorities involved. Avoid Confrontation: For now, steer clear of direct interactions with your neighbor about this issue. Let the professionals handle it to avoid any unnecessary drama. Protect Your Own Dogs: Until the situation is resolved, consider adjusting your walking times or routes to avoid any run-ins with your neighbor. Do not empower your neighbor. Time to back off..... I am an animal lover as well, from butterflies to Clydesdale horses..to mean animals, timid ones, hurt ones, etc. I feel I can relate to any of them. I have a cat who is my loyal companion with a special bond of trust, communication, and mental support. Not many understand the love I have for this animal...

Empaths were attacked so many times during life be it because of envy or retaliation, of course they isolate. Besides that our needs are not met. I connect to the Lord daily which helps a lot. Prayer calms me down and stops the fear. I do go to church also. And I began to exercise three times a week.

Definitely get advice from local authorities.. Pity the dog is aggressive. Taking on owners energy. Not enough love. Lots of love to you. I adore my furr family. Better than most humans 🤣🥲🥹

I relate to everthing you said. Nature and grounding/earthing in it is my greatest friend, (and animals) I do think we have times of deeper loneliness, dark nights of the soul , which i believe i am in right now (others through the pandemic ?) . Patience and faith 🙏. Trust. Lots of journaling and reading.

No matter how introvert you might be, take into account that internet, smart phones are making more difficult for people to talk to others. Safe public places are harder to find and indivualism has taken over our ancestral sense of community. Don't be too harsh with yourself; making friends is harder than ever in human history.

Thankyou for your words everything totally resonates, I came back from that dark place

They are young souls, unfortunately. If you do nothing, and their dog is hit by a car, they will play victims and have their sob story for anyone to hear. I’ve encountered skanks like this. I’ve asked them, “Do you want this dog or not?” When they look at me with shock and give me attitude, I then respond with, “Because you’re not taking care of it properly. There’s no excuse for allowing your pet to roam around. Keep your dog safe or find a good home for it. It’s your karma if something happens to this animal.” Then I sashay off. That guy has some brass ones to come around at 10:00PM at night! I don’t answer the door. Thank you for having a heart for animals. May you, your animals, and your home, be surrounded by Angels of Protection and may those neighbors get a clue.

Thank you so much for ALL information, I have struggled so hard for a long time to get out of narcissistic relationship in the family. Information on TH-cam has helped me. No contact is really the way to freedom. I am though still struggeling with a narcissist at my workplace, I have become a target due to jelousy. It is difficult. I struggle for my life. Maybe the only way out of it, is to get a new job, I am really in a bad position with my health. ❤

With my very best wishes Jermaine. Can I make a suggestion for you and your few moments of perceived loneliness. My suggestion is stop doing or thinking whatever thst is in that moment. THEN think and take so much consolation and warmth for all the empaths neurodivergents etc that you are helping and loving with your empathic crusade. At the moment of your loneliness, someone is playing or replaying this video now and in the future. You have many friends who are blessed to have found you. Cheers Tom. PS I might comment in an other reply with my coping strategies, which may not be everyones cup of tea

I am lonely somehow I think iam used to it, its a part of my life as an empath. I would rather be lonely than deal with the crap.

This Christmas Season has been the loneliest time for me. I'm processing acceptance of all that is. I'm mindful of the voices and the lies that go on. Sitting quietly and deliberately changing the narrative in my head is very important for me. I realise that the voices are terrible lies , that can cause me to become very sad. I have the power to actually respond and tell myself the truth. Meditation is what gets me through each day. I believe in God, so my approach to Meditation is that I'm giving my Creator God Time to just love me. I know that here I'm accepted, now feel the love. Sometimes I have a Good cry. Because there's so much emotion that going on, I find it hard to do physical chores. So selfcare is what I'll do. Wash my hair, give myself a manicure etc. I keep essential oils, neroli is wonderful, a drop on my temples is so soothing. Then a good cup of tea, set a tray, make a pot of tea and serve myself a nice cup of tea, as if I was in a restaurant. I live in an apartment, so pot plants , I tend to. It's wonderful how these soothing activities help to bring me back to presence. Thank you Vital, I resonate with your message. God Bless.

Where do you live!? 😂 Your neighborhood sounds like mine! No speed bumps, cars speeding through when they shouldn’t, delivery trucks, etc. I know the feeling! I have been in a similar circumstance. I share a backyard fence with a neighbor. This was probably 7-8 years ago now, but their little dog used to get into my yard all the time through a hole in the fence. And the fence slat is on their side to fix, so I couldn’t do much about it. Even though he was a small dog, I didn’t want him in my yard because I had two dogs of my own at the time (now passed, 2020 & 2022 😢) who were still much smaller than him and I could not take the risk that he wouldn’t hurt my little boy or girl.🐶 Since I could never get their dog to go through back through the hole in the fence, and I also didn’t want him in my car as I didn’t know what he might do to my car seats, I would pick him up and literally carry him all the way to their house, nearly a block away. I did this multiple times. At least 10. 😅 They didn’t really care and I would try to talk to them, there was a language barrier. Eventually though after the many times of me going to their house, they did work with me to fix the fence and I haven’t had any more issues. I also don’t know if it’s because they got a different dog or not because after a while I didn’t see him anymore. I do see another dog back there now though, but still no issues as they have put up chicken wire so he can’t get though. Sorry, I went on a mini rant myself. 😅 I know exactly why you did what you did. However, (I’m sure you know this) Trespassing is never good. 😅😅 So I am glad they didn’t do anything crazy! I don’t know what state you live in, but in Texas where I live, doing what you did could get you shot regardless of if you know someone or not. It is easy for people to feel threatened, especially when you are suddenly tapping on their window and in their backyard uninvited. 😅 I am honestly glad you’re still alive. Since you are asking what we would have done, I probably would have picked the dog up and put him in past their gate to the backyard, since it wasn’t locked. And if he didn’t go in, or if I didn’t feel safe picking up, or was unable to do so due to size, etc., I would have sadly had to leave him. Especially if I had somewhere else to go. I have been forced to do this on more than one occasion, but it was with people I didn’t know and animals which may, or may not have been theirs. I ended up writing them a hand-written note saying I saw a dog and leaving a description, asking if the dog was theirs and if it was and if they had any questions about it they could call me. I even did this with a baby chick, and also a rooster I saw out randomly on separate occasions! 😂 It has taken me a long time to come to understand that I can’t save all of the animals all of the time, even though I *really* try. And I really want to. I am one of those people who stops whenever I see a stray dog and will look for a collar. (I have even been late to work before doing this. 😅) And if they don’t have identification, I will try to take pictures of animal to try and find their owner on pawboost or the Nextdoor app. 😂 I do the same with cats as I love both! But after many years and much reflection, I am beginning to realize that by doing my best, I have done what I can. And you did your best, by ringing their doorbell and returning their dog. You tried to lookout for its well being the best you could. You took reasonable responsibility. And it wasn’t the first time you did, so it’s not like they didn’t know they were being irresponsible. By going into their backyard, you could have unintentionally harmed your own wellbeing. I would say that going into some else’s backyard who hasn’t given you express permission, without it being an actual life or death situation, is just not safe. And in many places, probably illegal. People are crazy! You have to look out for yourself, too. Please remember, your life is also very important. 😊 As for myself, this past year, 2024, I have been working hard to try to relinquish my unconscious need for control. It is painful for me when things go wrong, especially when I feel as though I could have prevented the bad thing that happened. So, ultimately I would usually feel as though what went wrong was my fault, leading to a lot of sorrow and guilt. Even moments of depression. Last year (2024), I tried to save a feral cat who was sick and came to my door. I used to feed him off and on over the years, so I knew him, but he wasn’t a cat you could keep indoors. It was right before Christmas, and I didn’t have any money. But I couldn’t leave him to suffer, so I decided to try and raise money for him online (my first time doing something like that). By the grace of God and the shear kindness of strangers, my fundraiser was successful, and I was able to get him a surgery and vet care. Things were looking good. I kept him in my garage to take care of him for a week after his surgery. It was against his will, 😅 but it was during a freeze, so bought him a space heater so he would recover well. He eventually accepted that I wasn’t going to let him out. 😂 Things were going good, and he seemed to be recovering well. I did all that I could. After he seemed well enough, and he was super stir crazy, I let him outside. But for whatever reason, not many days after, he took a turn for the worst and ended up dying anyway. It was very traumatic, and tragic, because I tried as hard as I could. And despite everything, it didn’t matter. It will be one year ago sometime next week that I found him passed away in the middle of my backyard. It still sucks for me to think about the “what ifs” and if there is anything more that I could have done. It is hard for me not to blame myself for him not being alive today. I didn’t realize I was being controlling in this way until someone told me. That l have no control over life or death. As if I didn’t know this, but it really hit me that I was actually trying to control this, and that I felt as though I could control outcomes this in some way. They reminded me that I did more than most would. And that he lived longer than he would have if I hadn’t stepped in to help as much as I could. And that he was a least loved and cared for at the end. It is still hard for me to deal with, but I know I am making progress. I began to self reflect and realized that I always try to control things that I think I can. For me, it usually comes in the form of trying to care for animals. 😅😅 When I think of your particular case, with your neighbor’s dog… just like you, I would have thought the same thing: if I saw that dog dead in the road when I got back home I would have blamed myself and ugly cried. I don’t know how I would have lived with myself. But in reality, if the dog’s death happened, it wouldn’t be on your hands. You cannot control this sort of thing. It’s death would not have been your fault, though feeling guilty over it is something that I understand. It is something I know I have to work on. Certain things are beyond our control. We can be sad, but need to try to relinquish guilt over these things, especially when we do all that we can. Watching your videos these past couple days after finding your channel, I see so much of myself in you. It is a very strange thing for me to observe, as I have never seen someone so much like me as you seem to be from what I have seen in your videos. It’s almost like looking in a mirror. 😂 I guess I need to meet empaths in real life! Now, where to find them when we are all so busy being introverts! Haha! Again, I am glad you are ok!! ❤❤️❤️ Sorry my comment is so long. 😅

So much of this resonates with me. 🤍 I enjoy solitude and isolation, and though my situation is different now, I still know that feeling of loneliness. I don’t have it often, but when I do, it weighs down my soul. Nature helps me the most…the silence of the desert, the wind whistling through trees, the sound of water (stream, ocean). It took me a while to figure this out; in my youth, I would cry and think there was something wrong with me. Thank you for bringing this to light and sharing it with the world. People need to know they’re not alone in feeling this way.

I deal with Loneliness with prayer and 😂❤.

Makes perfect sense

90% ....but sometimes -all day long........❤ ....so i'm the "weird" one.....🙄 and i'm perfectly "fine" and love being weird me❤❤❤🙏👆 i love smelling the trees and pine needles below my feet as i walk through mother nature in the forest all while seeing the sun light peek through and warming all the their leaves❤❤❤..... Here's to authenticity... God Bless and peace to all.....

Also .. negative energy cord.. got your head thinking and confused as what to do. Coming over at 10:30 pm in confrontational "what's wrong with your attitude.". Perhaps because the universe is showing you, these people are uncaring and negative and refusing to take responsibility or consider their dogs or neighbors needs... So disassociate yourself. Do not hang out and be friendly and chit chat. Remove the energy cord and let go. That's usually when it is time to work a higher power. .. give it to their your higherself, God, etc. those of us that did the heart path have important work to do NOW during this moment is transition on earth and need to protect our frequency.

I definitely turned to weed to numb the pain of loneliness. Yes, I'm an empath but I still don't want to walk alone in this life. Please keep these amazing discussions going.

Avoid entering the backyard of an unknown residence under ANY circumstances! Consider moving to a coastal state (except those small slivers of Georgia and Alabama.)

Rocky Kanaka. Period.

I was just journaling last night that I felt “lonely.” I don’t usually, as I enjoy my own company very much and enjoy being alone. But I found myself feeling lonely and it was a new feeling for me. Or at least, I was trying to understand if I was actually lonely or not so I was journaling about it. Seems like we are on a similar wavelength because here you are with a podcast on loneliness today. How strange. Thanks for the great video. ❤️

Maybe another neighbor could talk to them either with or without you? They certainly don’t care about the dog. I have a small dog a dachshund and I would be frantic If he got loose and I could not find him. It’s the same feeling when your child is missing even for a second so I understand how you feel. Dogs mean everything ! They are really no different than children. Hopefully this will be resolved favorably for the dog sake. You’re a good person for caring. 🙏❤️🕊️

Like you I allow myself to feel whatever I’m feeling. Being lonely is temporary but it feels so intense and awful. I go for walks to gather my thoughts. I like to sit in front of bodies of water to sort out what I’m feeling. Water for me is calming. I also write in my journal. It’s a great way to let it all out and self-regulate. Empaths we crave deep emotional connection. We’re truly here for intimate relationships not fluff. I believe loneliness can also stem from being around non empathic people. I hope that more of us find each other in communities like this one.

wow I was truly meant to hear this right now… definitely resonated 100%✨🙏🏽💫

I would hide to be alone when I was a kid, and I didn't want any friends.i have my cats 😊🙏✨️

❤❤❤ this ! Very relatable

Our current beloved are a toy terrier Schnauzer (silly funny muppet of a dog) that brings so much joy. And our "orange" cats. Our pets are like Amakua (guardian animals). I love watching videos of people helping wild animals in need etc always lifts my spirit and renews my faith in humanity. These people are negative and do not appear to care about the safety of their dog. Honestly, I would go into nature and call upon their higherselves or as some refer to that aspect of our bring the I Am Presence and ask that aspect to handle the situation. I would invoke and ask for protection for yourself and the dog. When people react defensively when being called upon their responsibility, and then try to switch and distract from issue by dumping blame on you, that is a major red flag. If you call animal rights protection services, that may backfire on you. So I would work with it energetically and then await the insight as to how to respond. My mom when to a neighbor to ask him to take care of his dog and address 24/7 barking and that person took a gun and shot his dog! If you have an association in your neighborhood you might bring it up so it is a neighborhood issue - people do not want to run over dog - rather than personal dispute.

It is very nice to find a content creator that has gone and still going to the depths you swim. thank you for your path and for sharing. Loneliness is a gift, it is an emotion and it too it our brother. How I keep swimming through loneliness is the same as you. Crazy how universe will validate experiences. While listening I just now figured that when the hurtful voices come while in the middle of loneliness I'm now going to write them down so the words are out my head and on paper and can be burned away or met with deep deep love so as for the words to heal( most highest wish)

I usually love my solitude, but right now loneliness is where I'm at. Going to meet with a very old friend tonight though, trying to get out of it 🤞

I feel lonely when I am with people (giving love and empathy and connecting to them), that do not or cannot reciprocate. When I am truly alone (do not have all these people's energy in my field), or in nature, or with pets, or with people (other empaths etc), or beings of higher dimensional frequencies, I do not feel lonely. As it is such a human condition (disconnect) at present for so many, I found doing massage and bodywork was a way to connect and empowers others to connect with their true essence and create a spiritual connection of sorts through the work.

Listening.

Coming from another animal loving empath, I'd say your heart is in the right place! You've tried on several occasions to inform the said neighbors that their dog is running around in the neighborhood and you're concerned for it's safety. They on the other hand, seem to be blazie about it, or they would be taking steps towards remedying the situation. Or maybe they have, but aren't being diligent enough. I feel much like you and I'd be so grateful if my pup somehow got out of my fenced yard or house unbeknownst to me. In my opinion, at this point which you find yourself, I think you could possibly try to have a calm conversation with them, letting them know your concerns and perhaps, if you feel their defenses aren't up, make suggestions to them on how to prevent this from happening in the future. If on the other hand they're not receptive, you have nothing left to do, but call the authorities if it happens again. You can let them know, that your conscience will not allow you to do nothing and you want to protect their dog, so you will do what must be done. I believe the safety of life comes way before the concern I might have for causing friction. To me it's not a choice, but I do understand your hesitancy. BTW: My pups have saved my life too. The unconditional love and deep connection I've shared with my precious pups through the years has been amazing and I am truly grateful for their presence in my life and forever in my heart. At present, I have an American Eskimo and a Maine Coon who are best of buddies. We recently lost our sweet boy of 14 yrs to congestive heart failure and 3 years prior, my ❤gal who understood everything about me without having to say a word. I'm not me without a dog in my life.....by my side. ❤

I love dogs, cats, all animals really but I don’t have any of my own. I feed the neighborhood cats and they come and visit me on there own to chill sometimes because I treat them well. Even though I don’t own them I consider them friends of mine. (In your case ) I would probably buy an extra leash and take the neighbors dog for a walk with you while you walk your own. Just a suggestion. If it’s not too much of a hassle for you. 💜

I am definitely the black sheep. Never fit in as a child. A teenage. An adult. A middle-aged adult. I will never fit in. I have accepted it. I have been "uplifted" by this message. I will show up for that meeting with other empaths. Many thanks!

I really want to meet you Vital Germaine. Please!
