Just so you know, you can live a non-solitary life and not stay up on TV, not be on social media, and live a low consumption life. None of those things preclude interacting with other people.

There is obviously a spectrum between fully social and fully anti-social, and it is important to find out where you fit on that. There is always value, however, in avoiding being on the far end of the anti-social spectrum. Having our thinking challenged by real people, with real interaction, is important to our mental health.




Hear, hear. Everything in degrees; spectrums. Too much of anything tends to be unhealthy.
