在我们调查的几百人中,大约52％的人说,当他们孤独时,他们有时或者经常感到空虚。“孤独时感到寂寥和空虚,就象寒冬里一棵光秃秃的孤树,”21岁的大学生林恩这样说。另有人写道:“我的躯体内空空如也,就象一根空心管子,而我的头脑里也常常是一片空白。” Of the hundreds of people we surveyed, about 52% said they felt empty sometimes or often when they were alone. “Loneliness and emptiness in solitude are like a lonely solitary tree in a cold winter,” says Lynn, a 21-year-old college student. Others wrote: “My body is empty, like a hollow tube, and my mind is often empty.”
