30) Summary: Looking For Experts In Friendship And Loneliness

Name: Michael Tedder MEL

Category: Lifestyle and Fitness

Email: query-bkzr@helpareporter.net

Media Outlet: MEL

Deadline: 7:00 PM EST - 27 November

Query:

For the men's website MEL, I wanted to put some feelers out
there for a story idea I am interested in pursuing.

According to a survey from YouGuv:

"The poll of 1,254 adults aged 18 and older found that 27
percent of millennials have no close friends, 25 percent have no
"acquaintances" and 22 percent -- or 1 in 5 -- have no buddies
at all. This compares with only 9 percent of Baby Boomers and 15
percent of Gen Xers who reported having zero chums."

The effects of social isolation and lack of friends are
numerous, from increased depression, health risks, a greater
tendency towards substance abuse, and a greater likelihood to
being susceptible to join dangerous groups like the Proud Boys
or QANON.

What MEL would like to focus on more unique and specific
solutions out there to loneliness. Are there any groups or
individuals, be in mental health care professionals, academics
or just people on the internet, trying to solve this problem?

What are some unexpected (and hopefully amusing) ways men are
creating community and helping others through their pain?

If that's you or someone you know, please get in touch!

Requirements:

Please send me your relevant background, even if it's not in an
"official" capacity, your social media handles, and most
importantly, what you are doing, or what someone else is doing
that I should know about.

Thanks!
