Health Tip: Dealing With Feelings of Loneliness
By LadyLively on January 7, 2016
People who are lonely struggle with feelings of isolation and emptiness.
If these feelings apply to you or someone you love, the University of Florida Counseling and Wellness Center advises:
- Acknowledge and accept that you feel lonely. Write, draw or play music to express your feelings.
- Take an active role in reaching out to those around you, whether it’s friends, family or work colleagues. If you’re struggling with a loss, talk about your grief.
- Get involved in a group activity to associate with others who have similar interests.
