Study: To Beat Loneliness, Visits Must Be Real, Not Virtual
This is a pretty interesting find, and makes sense.<p>As someone that struggles greatly with loneliness -- what kinds of systems have people found to address it as an adult?  (Presumably there's an interest on this site, since this article is here.)<p>I've for years found it to be an utterly crippling problem that I just can't really get on top of.  I scrape by by having acquaintances at work, and trying to stay in touch with remote friends (which works quite badly).  But I haven't been able to find a good balance with it for many years.<p>Sometimes I think maybe I'm trying to solve the wrong problem, but it seems to be an unnatural state for a person to feel alone.
