Recognizing Loneliness and Isolation in Seniors

Have you noticed your loved one withdrawing from activities they once enjoyed? Do they always seem to be tired and uninterested in their surroundings? It could be loneliness. A recent study conducted by the AARP found that over 42 million people over the age of 45 suffer from chronic loneliness, a known precursor to depression. Loneliness and isolation are also linked to sleep problems, panic attacks, and substance abuse.  

Feelings of loneliness can be brought on for many reasons, including:

• Losing a loved one through death or relocation

• Living alone

• Retirement

• Moving

• Geographic isolation

• Losing the ability to drive
