Many people go through phases of loneliness. Sometimes just briefly, sometimes for longer periods. On quiet evenings at home, when starting over in a new city, or in the middle of a packed daily routine.
Loneliness is nothing to be ashamed of. Even a short chat can bring noticeable relief. Studies show: as little as 15 minutes a day can ease feelings of loneliness - be it with a friend or an empathetic chat.
