Summary
People are more connected, digitally, than ever. Yet loneliness is epidemic.
Healthy relationships generate a slew of positive benefits. Research shows, for example, that doubling your number of friends boosts your well-being as much as increasing your income by 50%. But despite humanity’s need for connection, people everywhere are experiencing increased loneliness. In 2018, 22% of American adults reported that they often or always felt isolated or lonely. The 2020 coronavirus pandemic has sent such feelings into overdrive.
Digital forms of communication abound, but social connection platforms can actually exacerbate feelings of loneliness.
