The reasons why you're alone don't matter, only that you are a human who doesn't have their basic needs met. Humans who don't have their basic needs met start to break. Physically their immune system stops working, their stress hormones go into over drive and cause permanent damage from prolonged high levels. Mentally they stop feeling human. Without other people to share life with and communicate with, you start to lose your own sense of self, you start losing the ability to understand your own self until you are like a stranger trapped inside your own mind.
But despite all of this, you are still a human. A human who is broken in human ways for having been deprived of human needs.
