PeaceBuilders Opinion 1

Loneliness is a feeling we get when we don’t have enough friends or meaningful connections, or when our social life doesn’t match what we want.

There are different types of loneliness:

Emotional loneliness – when we don’t have close, meaningful relationships.

Social loneliness – when our social connections don’t feel strong enough.

Existential loneliness – when we feel completely separate from others and the world around us.

A researcher named Weiss found that there are six social needs that, if not met, can make us feel lonely: connection, support, care, reassurance, reliable friendships, and help during tough times.

Some services, like mentoring or social groups, can help people feel less lonely and more connected. These services have helped many people feel better and less isolated.
