Conversations around loneliness and mental health: What helps and what to do if it doesn't
In 2020 a group of researchers, including those with relevant lived experience, from听the UKRI Loneliness and Social Isolation in Mental Health Research Network and the NIHR Mental Health Policy Research Unit at 果冻影院 and King鈥檚 College London interviewed 59 people to explore听what it is like to be lonely or socially isolated听if you also struggle with your mental health.听As part of the interviews, we asked people what (if anything) had helped them feel less lonely and we have co-produced听a booklet to share their words with you.
