Ideas for Combatting Loneliness

Do y'all have a useful strategy for fighting loneliness? Share it with us in the comments department below!

Nurture & Connect With Others	Do Cocky-Care	Self-Enhancement
Volunteer your time and talents. There are so many charities that need y'all.	Get good quality sleep	But testify up, even if yous don't feel up to it. Become to meetings, movies, restaurants, the library -- by yourself.
Adopt a forever friend from a local animal shelter	Look for means to fill up your life with positive vibes. The negativity of loneliness can make y'all feel cynical, negative, and judgmental.	Read, write, or engage in a hobby that fulfills you. Or accept upwardly a new hobby. Share your creativity with others (e.one thousand., teach, bring together a order, publish or sell your work).
Do an unexpected favor for a neighbor or acquaintance going through a tough time (e.g., someone with a ill family member, a single parent)	Get some practice at the local gym or exterior. The endorphins will make yous feel better.	Take time to smile and say something (still brief) to people throughout your twenty-four hours.

Whether he's surrounded past a large oversupply or there'south no 1 in sight, the guy in this 1982 song finds himself dancing lonely. Some critics contend that the vocal alludes to engaging in other solitary activities by oneself (if ya know what I mean).

All the same, Billy Idol has insisted that the lyrics were inspired past the 1980s Japanese club scene. Instead of dancing with a partner, Japanese youth of the time watched themselves pogo dancing in the mirror. And then what's the truth? You be the judge.

1 in five Americans feels chronically lonely. Are you one of them?

Questions & Answers

Question: Is loneliness a good thing or a bad thing?

Answer: In the table of the playlist, "Songs Most Loneliness and Feelings of Isolation," I highlight 12 key risks associated with loneliness, including only not limited to low and suicide, Alzheimer'due south progression, and alcoholism and drug use. No one could debate that these are skillful things. Humans are congenital for social connection.

I estimate you lot could conversely argue that there is a silver lining to feeling solitary if information technology spurs you to be creative, find deeper meaning in life, develop i's spiritual side, amend concentration, or make important positive changes. You accept to weigh these against the risks, however, which are substantial.

Question: How practise y'all mend a cleaved heart, or better still, a broken heed?

Answer: A broken heart can indeed hurt just as concrete hurting hurts. Many of united states have been hurt securely in this way.

You may be securely disappointed because you aren't where you desire to be in life at present with the one you lot loved, but that doesn't mean there is no promise for tomorrow. You will love again if you allow yourself to do then. You may think that at that place'due south something incorrect with you because someone has broken your center and possibly your trust. There'south not.

Rather than ruminating on what yous DON'T have, what y'all are NOT, and what DIDN'T happen for you, instead focus on what y'all CAN DO to make today more than fulfilling. Kickoff, wipe all of the bright reminders of your old lover out of your life. They are gone at present. If you can't let go of these items by having a "burn ceremony," then pack upward their quondam photos, onetime gifts, letters, etc. up in a box. Seal the box with duct record, and marking it with the date and "Do non open." Then shop the box in the attic or somewhere less accessible. Take their photos off your phone and resist any urge to check out your former lover'south social media accounts. Brand the pause so you can mentally move on in a positive direction.

Yous also must treat yourself well by taking intendance of your trunk and mind. Sign up for classes at the YMCA or your local gym. Do will provide a source of potential friendship and endorphins, the body'due south natural "feel good" drugs. Eat well. Stop telling yourself negative messages. Make information technology a practise every day to give someone—anyone—a compliment. This volition assistance yous mentally compliment yourself, besides, on things gone right. Modify those messages you tell yourself. Y'all need to exist your biggest fan.

Don't rush back into dating. Instead, concentrate on grieving and accepting your lost relationship and making yourself a happy person. Create a saucepan list and get-go checking off items. Involve friends or do information technology alone. Just start, but talk with people along the way as you lot check your list off. Our lives are enhanced by the connections nosotros make with others.

Consider volunteering some time to a clemency or charities in your surface area. It tin be a quondam action or an ongoing commitment of your time, only I find that getting out and meeting new and different kinds of people who need and appreciate my help keeps me positive. Get off social media and rub elbows with real people. I discover that volunteermatch.org has a diverse range of constantly updated listings. Sometimes yous never know what will interest yous until you see information technology listed!

If you lot believe you are experiencing depression, please seek counseling. Depression is a mutual, treatable mental health condition, and you lot don't take to suffer. Talk to your family doctor to get a referral for a psychologist, psychiatrist, or mental health advisor. There's no shame in caring for yourself in this way.

I wish the all-time for you as you seek to regain your footing. You volition love again.

It is like shooting fish in a barrel to run across what an excellent therapist you are with your tips on how to combat loneliness and your comments to some of the people on this site. It is not as well surprising that so many songs accept addressed this topic.

FlourishAnyway (writer) from USA on March 23, 2020:

Mary - Thanks for the song recommendation which I have added. But more importantly, delight realize that many of us have gone through times (especially in our teens) when a lot of areas in life merely seemed to be going incorrect all at in one case -- social life, family life, academics, financial, self-concept, health, etc. Focus on what you can control right now, one thing at a time.

Even though it seems similar something y'all might non ordinarily do, endeavour reaching out to a trusted teacher via email or schoolhouse messaging so that y'all can talk to them about the difficulty you lot're having in their class. Brand a point of developing a better relationship with this 1 teacher. Ask for their assist or advice, express appreciation and kindness to them, and let them know you lot are trying. Particularly if this works, consider expanding your efforts to other teachers. Remember that teachers are higher up all people and they do want you to succeed so try to connect with them as such. Equally far every bit getting in fights and non having friends, that will take more sustained, longer term focus on the types of people you environs yourself with, watching what yous say, when you say it, and how, and knowing when to pick your battles. Since many of us are on a Coronavirus lockdown, wait up strategies for calming yourself in conflict so you can learn how to not permit certain people push your buttons so much. And above all, care for yourself kindly.

Mary on March 23, 2020:

I take no real friends and I am struggling with my schoolhouse work and I go along getting in fights and my teachers are not a large fan of me. Oh and a really expert song is "You lot don't know" by Katelyn Tarver.

There are many people who experience lone and isolated, even those who are supposedly popular. Join clubs and groups that interest you, pursue hobbies sometime and new, don't finish enriching yourself. Give to others in a volunteer capacity.

I wish you peace and happiness as you await for your sense of community around yous. In that location are so many other lonely people waiting to make connections with others. Attain out to those around yous. Best wishes.

Hey,

My oldest sister died a few days ago from emphysema. fifty of years of smoking. She was a difficult person, and many of my ix other siblings more or less ignored her. I kept contact with her through the years, and early I stood on the sidelines of our family with her, and instead of caring for the other members of my family, I criticized them, especially our our mom. I broke away from that several decades agone, and it became more hard to relate to her. I wonder about people who push other people away, or observe information technology difficult to reach out and ask for help.

Okay, my song proposition is "This is for all the lonely people," by America. Listened to it a lot when I was immature, and I beloved the hopeful bulletin.

"Bowling Alone" is a great book about our social cloth unraveling. I remember my first view of loneliness came from the many retirement I sang at in High School. Sister Susan, our director, implored us to hug and hold hands as much every bit nosotros could with the residents during these performances. She said many of these people feel lonely, and unattractive.

Thanks for setting up the site!

I was just watching the Highwaymen on public television and they sang Johnny Cash's 1972 "Sunday Morning Coming Down"

(verse) There is nothing brusk of dying

that is half as lonesome as the sound

of a sleeping city sidewalk and

Sunday Morning Coming Downward

This a great vocal for this one.

I just remembered a couple more songs should on this play listing.

1 is Loretta Lynn'due south

"When Lonely Hits Your Heart"

Here I am a doing things I said I'd never do

Just that'southward before my baby said we're through

Information technology was on that tragic day the hurtin' got its start

That's how it is when lonely hits your centre

And Connie Smith's -- "Blueish Little Daughter"

The more than beloved he gave me the more dearest I asked him to requite and not for ane moment did my foolish centre think of him and so one day he turned and slowly walked out of my world. At present my world is blue and I'm only a blue petty daughter.

Blessings

Shyron E Shenko from Texas on January xv, 2017:

I love all these songs, and will heed to them over and once again, but I do not see my favorite that use to brand me cry, it was on Patsy Cline's final album (Sentimentally Yours) released in 1962.

"Lone Street" was a top ten pop hit for Andy Williams in 1959.

Few others came closer than this haunting version by Patsy Cline...

FlourishAnyway,

You amaze me by your knowledge.

The only one that comes from the musicians of my genre is "Here I Go Over again" by Whitesnake. The ring's blues based hard rock and David Coverdale's wailing fabricated this vocal very special. When I am hiking with my canis familiaris, I recollect of this song a lot. I am sure Coverdale must have sung many other songs in the same vein for Deep Purple.

Bon Jovi'south 'Steel equus caballus I ride' may just qualify, and so may Scorpions 'When the smoke is going downwards'.

The other song that I listened to a lot was "Boulevard of Broken Dreams" by Green Day.

Thank you for compiling this listing.

Faith Reaper from southern USA on October 12, 2016:

Wow, Flourish, I published a hub on this very subject area several years ago only without the keen playlist! Social isolation is indeed a killer, just equally you've outlined here. Lonliness is and then difficult and one can be solitary even in a crowded room ...if that makes sense.

I had forgotten about a lot of these songs. There are so many adept ones. The one that hitting me this evening is "I miss My Friend", not because of whatever romance of form, but just missing the friendship. Friendship is a special kind of honey. I will dedicate it to my friend : )

Will share to get the of import message out about the serious wellness risks associated with loneliness or isolation.

Blessings always
