💨 Abstract

The article discusses the issue of loneliness among young people, highlighting that it's often due to a lack of meaningful social connections rather than individual deficits. While therapy can help, it's not universally successful or sustainable. Societal solutions, such as creating spaces for connection and addressing Structural issues like marginalization and discrimination, are needed. Opportunities for in-person socializing are declining due to cuts in youth services and the cost of living crisis, pushing young people online.
