Who’s got your back?
Loneliness is becoming more and more prevalent, in fact one in five Australians feel that they have no-one to talk to or turn to help and one in four of us feel lonely.
Loneliness can have a detrimental affect, it’s a risk factor for depression, anxiety and over eating. Social interaction and dealing with stressful situations can also be harder.
There are several ways we can combat loneliness and it could even begin with starting a new job, hobby or volunteering in your local community.
So let’s have each other’s back and fight loneliness together.
Take care and stay healthy x
