Loneliness & Mental Health
Loneliness has been associated with several mental health conditions, and it can either act as a predisposing factor to developing a mental health disorder, or it can be a consequence of a mental health disorder itself. Evidence shows that people who feel lonely are more likely to engage in alcohol and drug misuse, and experience anxiety and depression. Loneliness can also lead to poor sleep patterns and disordered eating behaviours.
