Loneliness might not come to mind when you think of conditions that impact health and quality of life for seniors today. In fact research has shown that loneliness may in fact be harmful as many medical conditions and lead to depression or even death.
The findings that were presented at the Annual Convention of American Psychological Association found that loneliness and social isolation are a major public health hazard, and it's an issue that's especially common among older adults.
"Over 40 million adults over the age of 45 are suffering from chronic loneliness."
