Loneliness and social isolation have become a major part of the modern life despite people being more connected than ever. I personally have been affected by it and know how it can feel.
If you or someone else you know feels like this please consider getting help.
Haha sorry if it came off like that, it wasn't my intention. English isn't my first language and expressing emotions through sentences is hard. I know how difficult it is to ask for help when you...

I know how difficult it is to ask for help when you are in a situation like this, but even a small step will bring in a huge change.
If anyone would like to talk about it, I am just a message away :)
I really like Kurzgesagts videos and this one is also, unsurprisingly great as well. Has anyone here read the books he suggested at the end - and if so - how were they? If they're good I might...

Finding content on tildes is so hard, jesus christ. I was searching for this video and went to ~science and ~health. Finally came to ~life and here it is. Annoying.
At one point, the video states that loneliness is "twice as death as obesity and as deadly as smoking a pack of cigaretes a day". I find that surprising and hard to believe..
I just tried the search bar with the title and it's the first result. How were you searching?

It's more understandable when you consider common behavior when you're lonely. Missed meals, missed sleep, intense irritability or stress, poor or impulsive decisions. It's the compounding of each effect on another that kills you, not any one on its own.

While I agree that it may be a bit of an exaggeration, but it's not far from the truth. Constant loneliness is almost like a continuous heartache, you feel the pressure to socialize but at the same time want to retreat in your shell.
