Inflammation Nation

S5 E2: Where Loneliness and Chronic Disease Intersect


Listen Later

In this episode of Inflammation Nation, Tara Regan speaks with associate professor of psychology, Dr Joanna McHugh Power, about loneliness, particularly for those living with chronic conditions like arthritis.

With Ireland recently named the ‘loneliest country in the EU,’ this is a timely discussion. Dr McHugh Power shares insights from her research and explores solutions to loneliness, highlighting that it’s not all down to simply socialising more or joining a group since the causes are multi-faceted, particularly for those managing chronic health challenges.
