At one time or another, each one of us has felt lonely. It's a natural part of living.

Loneliness can be keenly felt when a person is separated from a loved one by distance, divorce, or death. For other people, it comes to the surface when feeling distant emotionally from a spouse or partner.

You can overcome loneliness and be happier easier than you may think. 

The trick is to know why you are lonely. 

Then you can customize a specific strategy for resolving your loneliness. 

Don't fall for vague or general solutions that won't work.

Loneliness affects almost everyone at some stage of our lives. It can affect both men and women. No one is immune to loneliness. 

Unfortunately, loneliness can cause all sorts of health problems like depression, weakened immune system, etc.

Loneliness and depression are much more serious problems than people usually think. They can sneak upon
a person's life and cause problems that go well beyond down emotional feelings.

Combat Loneliness
Loneliness is painful. Often people who feel lonely exacerbate the situation by blaming themselves. Why am I lonely? Because other people don't like me. Why don't they like me? Because I'm a loser. It's not hard to imagine how this internal conversation can go downhill very quickly and make you completely miserable.

 Beware of loneliness. It'll surely cause you to do things that you'll later regret.

Loneliness will have you doing things that you never thought you'd do.

Loneliness will have you hanging out in places where you know you don't belong.
