Loneliness and isolation

Loneliness and isolation

There are times in everyone’s life when we feel lonely or isolated. It can be for straightforward reasons, like being away from home or having problems with friends and family.

You can also feel emotionally cut off from those around you, or feeling alone because of what’s going on in your head that you’re not sharing with your friends or family.

Times you can experience loneliness

Having low self-esteem can make us feel lonely, because we feel we’re not as good as others.

After a relationship break-up it can be difficult to adjust to life as a single person again. Spending more time on your own can feel isolating.

Common causes of loneliness:

·         Having a hard time with bullying or intimidation at school, college or work

·         Finding it hard to talk to others because of shyness or social anxiety

·         Living away from home for the first time

·         Friends moving away for work or college

Some tips for coping with loneliness:

Get busy

Boost your self-esteem

Explore your interests

Enjoy your own company

Try not to worry
