Loneliness and mental health are closely connected, and they can feed into one another over time. 🔁
When we’re struggling with our mental health, staying connected to others can feel harder. Relationships may drift or break down, which can lead to feelings of isolation. That loneliness can then make our mental health feel even more difficult, creating a cycle that’s hard to escape.
Recognising this pattern is an important first step. Reaching out for support - even in small ways - can help break the cycle and remind us that connection is still possible.
At Swindon & Gloucestershire Mind, we offer supportive spaces to talk, learn, and connect with others who understand. You don’t have to face loneliness or mental health challenges on your own - support is here if you need it. 💛
