Is life worth living without friends or family?

I think so. My mother passed away back in 2012 my Father in 91. I have 3 sisters and a brother. 2 out of 3 sisters I haven't talked to since Xmas 2011 my other sister we send about 2 texts each a month. My brother, we never saw eye to eye and after he told me "Bad things happen to people. You don't think I get sad? You have to get overbit" we talk even less. I had friends in my teens but after 21 we all kinda went our own ways. We talk in Facebook rarely. Haven't seen any of my "click" in years. After My divorce I tried making a new life with new friends but there is always drama and B.S. that I went back to being a loner. The only human interaction I have is, my roommate. The Indian couple at the convenience store & people online. Other then that, I don't make eye contact with anyone because I hate fake people and I'd have to pretend that I care and interested when all I wanna do is what I need to do and get home. Unfortunately I am signing myself into an IOP tomorrow and I'm not looking forward to that, at all but TBH, IOP helps if you go to the right place, have the right counselors and if you put an honest effort. But anyway any friends I made, I avoid now as much as possible. So I'd say I have no friends or family & I feel like life is living. I got myself a cat and would recommend a pet, only if you can handle all the responsibilities, can be around for it and afford to keep it fed & healthy. Adopt a pet if possible. They make great companions, great for therapy, aren't judgemental and give unconditional love if you take proper care for them.. Ok I'm done rambling. Hope I was of some help.
