Is Everyone as Lonely as Me?
Manage episode 320858762 series 2654181
Feeling lonely is part of our evolutionary makeup. The emptiness in our chests is what drove our ancient ancestors to seek out others, form tribes, find mates, and face the terrors of nature together. But in our modern society, feeling alone is a shameful secret.
In this episode we’re breaking down the concept of loneliness: why we feel it, why we’re ashamed of it, and how chronic feelings of loneliness can actually change your brain chemistry for the worse. All this to answer the rude question: Is everyone as lonely as I am?
That’s what you’re in for today, on Impolite Society.
