Loneliness can affect anyone at any time. Often, it's triggered by life event -retirement, divorce, illness or even losing a loved one. But even seemingly positive events, like having a baby, moving home or starting a new job, can leave you feeling lonely. But what is loneliness? As deeply social animals. most of us will feel the need to be around other people on a daily basis.And if we don't, we can risk feeling isolated. But it's possible to feel lonely even when were surrounded by a roomful of other people or we have a thousand or so friends on social media. Because it's not just about solitude. It's about our perception of belonging and having meaningful relationships with other people. Having a small number of strong social bonds is much more important than having a large number of superficial friendships. 在英国,孤独是普遍的现象。有45%的英国人承认至少有些时候会感觉到孤独。八分之一的成年人称自己没有亲密的朋友。孤独会在任何时候影响任何人。通常,孤独是由于生活事件-退体、离婚、疾病,或者是失去爱人而触发的。但即使是一些看似积极的事情,比如生孩子、搬家或开始份新的工作,也会让你感到孤独。 那么孤独是什么呢?作为很强烈的群居动物,大多数我们都觉得每天需要和其他人在一起。如果我们不这样,我们就会有被孤立的感觉。但是即使当我们身边有一屋子人,或者我们在社交媒体上有非常多的朋友,我们依然会感觉到孤独。因为孤独并不是独处,而是我们的归属感以及与其他人建立有意义的关系。拥有少量的牢固的社会纽带要比拥有大量的肤浅的友谊更重要。
