When people feel sad and lonely, not all the time, but only once in a while and they have people around them interacting with them. What does this mean? Are they depressed? Is their some kind of inbalance in their body? How can it be fixed?

A lot of this could be personality type, and genetically some people feel detached from others. Autism, Schizophrenia, and Depression are mental illnesses with this symptom. Having people around can make a person feel stressed out and overwhelmed. And yes there is a brain problem involved. The person having the symptoms would need to discuss this and decide how big of a problem it is for them, and how it affects others. Some medications and therapy are available after professional consultation.

If it's not all the time, and it doesn't cause you to worry a lot, and it doesn't happen at times when you really do need to be fully present because the situation requires it ... then don't worry. It's a sign that you're a separate person with your own identity and integrity and that you're not dependent on other people to do your living and/or thinking for you.
All other things being equal, I'd be much more worried about someone who felt completely incapable of being alone and in their own head from time to time and therefore completely dependent upon other people for validation of their identity.

"Lonely in the crowd" is a sign of not fitting in.
Not fitting in can be caused by many things:
1) wrong crowd
2) nice crowd, but they don't understand what's important to you
3) a problem with your mental balance, causing a sense of "disconnection"
4) a depression
As long as the good moments are more often than the bad moments, or as long as most crowds still make you feel fine, there seems to be no problem. Most people can feel uncomfortable at times.
But if the bad moments appear often, even with the crowd that used to feel good before..... it might be usefull to talk to a doctor, just to prevent it from getting worse.

I had the same situation. For me it was a spiritual loneliness. I did not believe in G-d - was agnostic.
I have come to believe in a benevolent Higher Power, and from that time on I never feel lonely whether with or without people.
Good luck.

Well, I'm not a doctor but this is my opinion: They could be depressed or they could have something on their mind that they aren't comfortable sharing with anyone else (ya know, preoccupied). I don't know if what I'm referring to could be considered an imbalance; but if you think there's more going on, I would recommend calling a doctor.

SWEETIE,
ONLY GOD CAN FEEL YOUR EMPTINESS; THE ONLY WAY YOU CAN BE FIXED IS ASKING JESUS INTO YOUR LIFE; YOU WILL SEE.
I use to feel the same way; no pill, no
friends no family will fill the emptiness you feel, except thru God.

You don't have to be alone to be lonely.
I was married and lonely.
