How can a person live a normal and sane life in complete Isolation ?

The way we arrive makes this hard to do. Since we all require parents or care giver's during our early years you would never actually be in total isolation until later in life. As we mature your survival requires that you interact with others. Since we aren't able to reproduce without another, nature would discourage this.


Thus Nature selection would declare this UN-NORMAL.


Sanity is just a label a consensus of people came up with for behavior. What's sane in New York, may be considered INSANE elsewhere.


Now Existence is something totally Different.How can a person live a normal and sane life in complete Isolation ?
impossible!How can a person live a normal and sane life in complete Isolation ?
Cant....but remember there is a thin line between insane and genius and they play hopscotch allot. Let the leaves fall where they may and we might get something good out of that person.

Assuming that complete isolation means no tv, no radio or newspapers, no contact with the world in any form at all, I'm not sure if they can. Humans have a basic need for companionship and communication, so after an amount of time without these needs being met, the average person will begin to suffer psychological issues.





People can form close bonds with inanimate objects which become their ';friends';. Just think of Tom Hanks and Wilson in ';Castaway';, but it's no real subsitute for the real thing.
Normal, NO. Sane, Yes.





Normal is really a comparison to a control group. Since a majority of people have a tendency to socialize with other people, then it WOULDN'T be normal.





As for sanity, that would depend on how you would relate to solitude. Many people like some solitude from time to time. Being totally isolated for long periods of time would be stressful to many people. (Especially by people who enjoy socializing.)

They cannot. In Japan this has become something of a social problem.The following is a selection from an entry in Wikipedia: 'Hikikomori (ひきこもり or 引き篭り lit. ';pulling away, being confined,'; i.e., ';acute social withdrawal';) is a Japanese term to refer to the phenomenon of reclusive adolescents and young adults who have chosen to withdraw from social life, often seeking extreme degrees of isolation and confinement due to various personal and social factors in their lives. The term ';hikikomori'; refers to both the sociological phenomenon in general as well as to individuals belonging to this societal group.'
