Cosa significa essere una buona amica? Non dire mai no agli inviti, accogliere le richieste d’aiuto, anche quando non hai il tempo per pensare a te stessa, ascoltare chi ha bisogno di sfogarsi, anche quando l’argomento ti ferisce. O almeno così crede Elizabeth Day che, a quasi quarant’anni, ha diversi libri di successo alle spalle, una carriera da giornalista ben avviata, un matrimonio, un divorzio. E, naturalmente, tonnellate di amici: una vera friendaholic. Poi arriva la pandemia e, con quella, giornate all’improvviso vuote di impegni e cariche di silenzi e assenze.

Doch tatsächlich lässt sich auch der Trauerprozess gesund und sinnstiftend gestalten und wie das selbst in schweren Momenten gelingt, zeigt Ihnen dieses Buch. Trauer ist unvermeidbar, Trauer ist intensiv, Trauer ist in jedem Fall einzigartig und trotzdem gilt: Der Trauerprozess – so individuell er auch gelebt und empfunden wird – folgt letztlich ähnlichen und gut erforschten Mustern.

The consequences of loneliness and isolation extend far beyond mere feelings of emptiness or discomfort. Studies have consistently shown that chronic loneliness poses significant risks to both mental and physical health. It is associated with a higher likelihood of developing depression, anxiety, and suicidal ideation. Moreover, prolonged isolation can lead to a weakened immune system, increased inflammation, and a greater risk of cardiovascular disease. The impact of loneliness on overall well-being cannot be overstated.
