Deadline: 7:00 PM EST - 8 October

Query:

Merriam-Webster dictionary defines doomscrolling as "the
tendency to continue to surf or scroll through bad news, even
though that news is saddening, disheartening, or depressing."
And since we've been inside a lot more, it has become easier to
get caught up with the endless cycle of bad news. For this, I'm
looking for therapists to suggest healthier habits that could
replace doomscrolling along with ways to just cut back if you
find yourself being consumed.

80) Summary: Understanding the Impact of Loneliness

Name: Conan Milner The Epoch Times

Category: Lifestyle and Fitness

Email: query-bcxu@helpareporter.net

Media Outlet: The Epoch Times

Deadline: 7:00 PM EST - 10 October

Query:

Stay at home orders issued over the past few months have
drastically cut into our social lives. These measures are
intended to reduce the spread of a potentially deadly illness,
but might they also be breeding another kind of disease?

One story that really hit me a few months back was the rise in
suicides that have emerged since the lockdown began. For
example, I read in Tennessee that suicides outpaced COVID
deaths. It made me wonder about our need for human contact and
the importance of social interaction in a whole new way.

I want to know how loneliness impacts us and why. What kind of
damage can it do, who is most at risk of it, and how bad can it
get? In a world where we can order anything, communicate with
anyone, and conduct all of our business without leaving the
comfort and safety of home, what are we missing?

I'm interested in learning about related studies, personal
experiences, or professional opinions.

As a side note, I wonder how much masks plays into this. If we
do manage to see real life people, masks reinforce the feelings
of separation. For me, walking through a grocery store of
cloth-covered faces has been very alienating.

I understand that much of the despair people feel right now is
multi-faceted--fear of COVID, politics, or any number of
personal issues--but are these fears amplified because we're
being kept apart? And if so, how do we cope?
