Are you suffering from some or most of these symptoms?

  • Inability to connect with others on a deeper, more intimate level. Your interaction with family and friends doesn’t feel connected in a way that is fulfilling.
  • No close or "best" friends. You have casual friends or acquaintances and you can't seem to find a "soulmate".
  • Overwhelming feeling of isolation regardless of where you are and who’s around. You feel isolated, disengaged and in your own world.
  • Negative feelings of self-doubt and self-worth 
  • Exhaustion and burn out when trying to engage socially. When you try to connect or reach out, you’re not seen or heard.



If left unchecked, long-term loneliness symptoms can pose risk of more serious medical and emotional problems, including:

  • Depression
  • Sleep disorders
  • Type 2 diabetes
  • Heart disease
  • High blood pressure
  • Mental health and emotional problems
  • Substance use



If you think you are suffering with long-term feelings of loneliness, it's time to engage with other people in a positive, healthy way. 


Find support and encouragement from others who share similar interest or aspiration that could help ease your loneliness and unleash your potential.



Even though it may be difficult, try making the effort to connect with others. Group travel to your dream destinations helps boost self-esteem and provide a safe and satisfying way to connect with others.



Contributing your time and energy, working alongside others for a good cause, can effectively help you in fighting loneliness. It can help you make friends and connect with others, and make you a happier person.



Try to set and work toward achieving some goals. Achieving goals can help boost your confidence, and with it, your sense of happiness, too.
