Living in complete isolation could completely change your view on the world and everything inside it. Many people today irritate on how this generation is so consumed in technology, and it has shaped our culture in the way we now live. But with this isolation, you would have none. You can no longer depend on a television or the internet for entertainment, a telephone or email for communication, a phone to look up the weather. Nothing. With no technology and no other human interaction can really make one lonely. There would only be naturist things todo such as a hike or some sorts. But todo these things without a companion will in the end put a damper on the mood.

Some possible effects of living in isolation would be depression. You're constantly lonely with no one to spend time with or talk to. All your time is with yourself and your own thoughts. While sometimes it's good to be alone, it's not good to be alone for eternity. In my opinion, I would become very bored. Nature is beautiful and wonderful to admire but there's only so many trails one can go on and not get used to the familiarness. In the end, I would constantly miss and think about my loved ones.
