Good friends are good for your health. Friends can help you celebrate good times and provide support during bad times. Friends prevent loneliness and give you a chance to offer needed companionship, too. Friends can also:
▪️Increase your sense of belonging and purpose
▪️Boost your happiness and reduce your stress
▪️Improve your self-confidence and self-worth
▪️Help you cope with traumas, such as divorce, serious illness, job loss or the death of a loved one
▪️Encourage you to change or avoid unhealthy lifestyle habits, such as excessive drinking or lack of exercise
