I think we can all agree – there’s some crazy shit going down with our headspace right now, ammiright? We’d probably never admit it prior, but I think we’re all feeling a little bit lonely at the moment.

Loneliness is a cringey concept, though, isn’t it? In any other version of reality than these twisted quarantimes – has any guy on the face of the western planet ever actually admitted (in any semblance of sobriety, at least) that he’s lonely?

Acute feelings of depression and loneliness contribute to suicide – the current leading cause of death of British men, ages 20-49. In the US, suicide rates among young people have risen 35% since 2007. Putting this into current context, that’s more than cancer, road accidents, heart disease, and coronavirus – combined.

So how can you alleviate feelings of loneliness, when you can’t even leave your home?  Today on the show, I’m offering up five ways to reconnect, right now.  We may be in physical isolation, but we needn’t succumb to emotional isolation – to loneliness.
