You might have moved to a new place and struggling to make friends. Or you might be going through a phase in life where you feel utterly isolated. When you feel lonely, regardless of how busy the surroundings are, you might experience the feeling swallowing you.
Loneliness is not a mere mental feeling. If not addressed, it could harm your physical and mental health, impacting every aspect of your life. Evidence suggests that if you do not address it, loneliness could be involved in issues such as alcoholism, weaken your immunity and even lead to depression.
But you don’t have to tackle it alone. If you are feeling disconnected, here are some ways that could help you battle loneliness.
- Talk with yourself.
- Take everything in a positive way.
- Never underestimate yourself.
- Never let yourself feel uncomfortable.
