urban loneliness is a thing. And it is affecting our healthOne can feel lonely anywhere, but the loneliness that comes from feeling alone in a big city despite living cheek-by-jowl with so many other people is a different thing altogether. As Olivia Laing puts it lucidly in her book The Lonely City: Adventures In The Art Of Being Alone, “Loneliness doesn’t necessarily require physical solitude, but rather an absence or paucity of connection, closeness, kinship: an inability to find as much intimacy as is desired."Loneliness isn’t about whether we live alone, it’s about  feeling alone, says psychologist John Cacioppo of the University of Chicago, US, in an email interview. “Chronic loneliness (being and feeling lonely for a long time) is a modern-day epidemic," says Prof. Cacioppo, who has been studying this subject for over two decades. 

This sort of isolation has long been associated with old age—parents struggling to come to terms with grown-up children leaving home and moving away; poor health; and not knowing how to utilize their spare time. Over the past 10 years, however, health experts have seen an increase in this phenomenon in the younger age group as well.
