Loneliness Kills

Loneliness is one thing which I believe is worst then any physical ailment also. One may have all the money in the world but if there is no one genuine in your life to share it with then that money will not make really any sense. If someone genuine is not by your side in life then all that money would mean nothing. People do say money can buy anything and to an extent it's true, but for sure it cannot take away your loneliness. You may be surrounded with people with the money you have and yet you may feel lonely because there they may be all fake connection just attached with money. I am not saying everyone who has money has fake connections. It is about those who do not have someone genuinely loving them in their life and they have loads of money. In such connections people will disappear if you no longer have money.

In old age loneliness is the main cause of depression. While you are young you may somehow keep your self busy with work, but as you age and your mobility and work reduces that's the time when it starts hitting you. I see many old people in hospital and old age homes who have no one of their own. Old age homes are a good concept, they do give some kind of mental protection to the old people who have no one around them. Their loneliness to an extent is taken care of, but here also when I visit old age homes, some of them when they talk to me, I realize that even there they are lonely and missing their family who have abandoned them at a stage in their life when they need them the most.

We humans are filled with emotions and we crave for love, there are very few people in the world who do not care of these things and are happy to be alone, but at large we need someone around us, even if it is just one person. And sometimes we are surrounded by people and yet we feel isolated. It is proven that loneliness has a big impact on health, it disturbs sleep patterns, hinders appetite, leads to depression and anxiety and also creates hormonal imbalance.

If you see someone dealing with loneliness, try to be there for them in a genuine manner and take care of them. A little soulful conversation with them will help them spark up.
