Topic: Long-term feelings of loneliness are bad for your brain and your overall heath. The rates of loneliness are increasing.

Loneliness is not a feeling that only old people have, a growing number of college students experience the same emotion. Today, we'll explore why loneliness is becoming more pervasive, what to do to help your brain, and how we can change our lives to make things different.
