Loneliness is a trickster. It can disguise itself as depression or anxiety. It can get us to sabotage our relationships and jobs, make unwise decisions, neglect our health, turn to substances or food, lose faith in the future. It can decimate our self-esteem, without which we cannot give to others. Maybe once it was loss, grief, trauma, betrayal, being at the top, illness, misfortune, being different, oppression, distance, or age. But now, maybe it's loneliness. And with the requirements of Sheltering In Place and Social Distancing during COVID19, loneliness has become a heightened risk for all of us.
You deserve to feel lovable, valued, attached...close. To know that you matter, that the world wants what you have to give. That someone knows the real you, that your life has dignity, purpose, meaning. You deserve to feel that you belong. It's your birthright. As humans, we're wired to genuinely connect with each other. And you can outwit the trickster.
You can get loneliness to turn you loose. Give yourself permission to look at what loneliness is trying to tell you, and be willing to do some work.

I'm ready when you are.
