Can years of social isolation drive a person insane and if so, how long will it take?

Hmm, some Buddhist Monks voluntarily isolate themselves for years in order to find a higher truth.


I think socialization is a bit like riding a bicycle- once you know how to interact with folks, you don't forget.Can years of social isolation drive a person insane and if so, how long will it take?
insane...? well that is relative.....social isolation pushes you inward, you only become insane to the outside world. Even though you become too unique for others to understand....your self-realization reaches new levels....this leads to ';insane'; behaviors that feel....natural :)....hope that makes sense...Can years of social isolation drive a person insane and if so, how long will it take?
it depends on the person, if you take advantage of the situation and do something useful you wouldn't go insane...but again everyone's different.
who says u need sumone to ASSESS the issue. ';voiceofreason'; is correct.i have been through that and experienced a higher understanding of life...
if he remains isolated there is no one with whom to interact ...so there is no one to assess the issue.
