Feeling lonely? We are here to help.

Most people feel lonely sometimes. Some people feel lonely most times. Some even all the time. Yet most people tend not to talk about their feelings of loneliness. Even though the internet offers an abundance of articles, blogs and websites about loneliness, feeling lonely still seems a kind of taboo subject.

But feeling lonely is a normal human experience. Wherever there are people, there is loneliness. 40 percent of all people experience (temporary) feelings of loneliness at some point in their lives. About 20 percent of people often feel lonely. And 1 in 10 people feel seriously lonely permanently.

Let that sink in for a moment. Of every ten people you know, on average one feels seriously lonely all the time… Chances are you are not aware them. And if you feel lonely, neither are they. Because you can’t see loneliness on the outside. It has nothing to do with your age, gender, physical attractiveness or intelligence.

Loneliness can have a negative effect on your health, both mental and physical. It can even become an existential problem. It’s therefore important that you do not ignore you feelings of loneliness, but instead pay them serious attention.

If you are feeling lonely, you’ve got a friend at The Lonely Corner. We are here to help. Because we care. And because many people struggle with loneliness. You are not alone!
