Have you ever isolated yourself when you craved connection most?

A friend of mine detached himself from loved ones while dealing with grief and loss. He thought focusing inward was wise self-care, without realizing how is self-isolation was destructive to his mental and emotional health.

I've disconnected during my own struggles, diminishing their importance. But no matter the hardship, letting others in is vital. Even if we need “me time,” it’s important to loop someone in. Explain that you're dealing with something and you may be quiet. They'll understand and can at least check in on you.

You never know when life's challenges may overtake you mentally or emotionally. Pushing away people who care, who could lend an ear or shoulder may leave you feeling unable to cope and abandoned, when in reality others are there for you.
