From Loneliness to Community

Loneliness can be the catalyst for so many other negative emotions.  You are never alone; someone out there feels the same or has had similar circumstances.  Please get in touch with emergency services if the feeling of extreme loneliness is debilitating.  Otherwise, here are a few suggestions to combat slight loneliness:

​

1st Find someone to quarantine with, or find a roommate/pet for everyday situations that have nothing to do with quarantine.  Having another person or a pet around for support, love, and comfort is the best way to combat loneliness.

​

2nd, Make sure to keep in touch with others, especially if you find yourself clicking with another person's personality.  As we get older, we find it harder to make friends, and it is because we extend ourselves a lot less than we did in youth.  It is as simple as inquiring; you may find they are as much a friend as you are.

​

3rd Find groups to join where you can socialize and be heard as much as you like.  This will help to broaden the amount of like-minded people you encounter with.  It will open you up to new opportunities to find love and/or friendship.
