Loneliness Is Not Good For The Man

What makes you happy? Psychology: Ninth Edition in Modules responds “most people mention- before anything else- close, satisfying relationships with family, friends, or romantic partners” [Bercheld 1985]. In summation, happiness is often dependent on social interaction. People who live alone and have little to no interaction with others begin to exhibit qualities associated with insanity- a person is said to have psychological disorders for making up people who do not actually surround them. Ironically, Americans of the present generation are increasingly isolating themselves through “social” media. The absence of genuine human interaction has led to increased numbers of people feeling depressed or even

Loneliness has become an epidemic among young adults and spared out in elders’ everyday life where social isolation has become a cause of early death because we cannot cope alone.

Oftentimes, people confuse loneliness with the state of being alone. When looking at the overall big picture, it is easy to forget that loneliness is temporary. People are not alone because even back in primitive times, they bore a natural instinct to strive for companionship in order to survive. Human imagination creates companions in cases of extreme loneliness which contradicts the state of being alone. Due to societal and family standards, others in society make it practically impossible to be alone. Mankind often goes through life without realizing the overwhelming amount of human contact and support. People are never alone, they are just simply

As social beings, most of us feel the need to interact and enjoy the company of others. A popular definition of loneliness is that it's that feeling we get when this interaction is missing. However, loneliness is not the same as being alone or isolated. One can choose to be alone and enjoy a very blissful life. Or one can be very active in community groups, friends, and even family and still feel lonely. Loneliness is not an outward appearance, its an internal battle that causes weakness, and spiritual isolation within a person.

Nouwen (1975) describes loneliness as a universal experience that affects even the most intimate relationships. He identifies loneliness as one of the universal sources of human suffering. Some of the mental suffering in the

For Participant 1 (P1), experience of loneliness followed by a loss of an attachment figure who he could trust and feel safe. This sense of safety is related to both his trust in others that they would be honest and stay with him. He values sharing and dialogue with trusting other(s) as he reflects on his life tasks and in developing a solid sense of self. His value in making a good decision for himself as well as people under his care is achieved through interactions with trusting others. A lack of those trusting others, it led him to feel alone despite of his acknowledgement of presence/availability of other people. His loneliness was compounded as he found himself needing cope with difficult situations alone. He places an emphasis on the

Stephen Marche states, “We know intuitively that loneliness and being alone are not the same thing.” He also talked about a research in 2005 from a study of Dutch twins explaining that loneliness is a type of psychological state and that it is about the same as having other types of psychological problems (par. 9). The essence of Stephen Marche’s argument is that Facebook or other forms of social media is making us lonely because we allow it to make us feel that way. We have to realize that we need to use social media with moderation. Too much of anything is harmful, but we learn that from personal experiences. I can go crazy with Snapchat, but I do not let it affect my personality and I do not become lonelier whenever I use it. The point is to have fun with whatever you do in your life and to respect other people for how they live their

In conclusion, when people are experiencing loneliness, their actions, as well as their way of life is altered. Also some problems and changes are caused

Another effect is loneliness is not a matter of external conditions but rather more of a psychological state, which can cause neuroticism, or anxiety with due time. For example, John Cacioppo, the director of the center for cognitive and social neuroscience at the University of Chicago, says the epidemic of loneliness is affecting the basic functions of human physiology. And in one experiment, Cacioppo confirmed “The greater the proportion of online interactions, the lonelier you are.”

Not only does it increase the risk for suicide, but he said it ties to hardening of the arteries, inflammation in the body, and problems with memory and learning. He also proved that loneliness results in an early death. He did an experiment with flies, and the ones that had contact with others lived longer than the ones that were isolated. This shows just how important communication with others is. Isolation isn’t just a problem in Of Mice and Men, but a big problem seen in older adults. A New York Time article showed a survey that Dr. Perissinotto did in 2012 about isolated older adults. He reported that 43% of 1,604 adults over 60 felt lonely, and the ones that admitted feeling lonely had significantly higher health issues, and even resulted in death the next 6

A prince must learn not to be limited to morality when unavoidable; a leader has to be able to use lies, force and deception if required in the world. Whether it is better to be feared or loved clearly addresses the reason for this.

In The Prince, Machiavelli explains what a good and successful prince should be like. He advocates a strong, cutthroat authority figure and encourages the winning of power by any means necessary. The main theme in The Prince is that mob rule is dangerous, for people know only what is good for themselves and not what is good for the whole. The common people, in Machiavelli’s view, “are ungrateful, fickle, liars, and deceivers, they shun danger and are greedy for profit; while you treat them well, they are yours”. He believes that these commoners should be

At first read the book of Esther is a story of a Queen who was able to achieve a heroic act that saved her people from being destroyed. However as you examine the story it’s more than a historic story of triumph, but through the actions of the characters in the story it becomes a blueprint for many aspects of leadership. By examining the different dimensions of the leadership traits of King Ahasuerus, Haman, Mordecai and Esther will represent the different facet of developing into a leader.

According to George Monbiot’s article “The Age of Loneliness Is Killing Us” Monbiot states that society is shifting into isolation and loneliness. Instead of having the age of sharing and socializing. Each and every individual is wanting to stay alone with their own solitude and loneliness. Monbiot recognizes this damaging effect on society and states that how much dangerous it is. To start off. Monbiot claims that we as humans are social beings and always will be “We were social creatures from the start,” by disagreeing with Thomas Hobbes’s claim on our human state of nature “of every man against every man.” Monbiot sees this idea of every person on their own an epidemic of loneliness in today’s age, and how it

being separated means being alone. This is true of every creature, and it is true of man
