Loneliness

A state or feeling of sadness or depression due to the fact that you are alone.  You don’t need to be literally alone to feel loneliness. One can feel loneliness even if they are in a crowd.  If you have no one to make a connection with or interact with, being surrounded by strangers is just as isolating as if you had no one in a room with you.
