The loneliest generation in America

Greg R

I found this short article on Linkedin this morning.  Honestly, I was surprised by how many people feel lonely in the United States.  I am guessing the numbers are similar for people living in Japan.  If you find yourself feeling lonely or sad, I hope you will consider taking my lesson, Sad or Lonely, Let’s Talk, I’ll Listen.  Nobody deserves to feel lonely.

“Nearly half of respondents to a nationwide survey by health insurer Cigna say they always or sometimes feel alone, and 54% say they feel no one knows them well. Such loneliness is connected to increased risk of heart disease, stroke and premature death. The loneliest group? Young people, especially those born between the mid-1990s and early 2000s. They are less likely to have in-person social interactions, which the survey identified as a potential loneliness antidote.”
