This feeling can often trigger or exacerbate depression, creating a cycle that is difficult to break. This article will explore the connection between loneliness and depression, offering insights into this complex relationship.

It's not just about being physically alone but about lacking meaningful connections with others. Persistent loneliness can be distressing and impact mental health significantly.

The isolation can be both physical, as they withdraw from friends and family, and emotional, as they may feel misunderstood or disconnected from others. This isolation can create a cycle where depression fuels feelings of loneliness, which in turn exacerbates the depression.
