Loneliness is so rampant in the US that the Surgeon General dubbed it the “Loneliness epidemic” with half of all adults in the country reporting feeling lonely. We know how bad loneliness is for our physical and mental health. Having social connections is one of the biggest predictors of wellbeing as we age and yet half of us are caught in a loneliness spiral made worse by our constant social media obsessions.
Gone are the days when classrooms and after-school activities made bonding as easy as just being present. Regular class schedules, team sports, and shared dorms naturally bring people together.
