Hi Redditors! 

Lately, I have  been thinking a lot about how loneliness shows up in adulthood, especially for people with really busy lives. You can have a full schedule, be around people all day, constantly working or handling responsibilities, and still feel alone in a quiet way. Like there’s no real space to pause and talk about what’s actually on your mind.

I don’t think we talk about that enough. I’ve also noticed that not everyone wants or needs traditional therapy for this kind of feeling. Sometimes you just want a space to vent, be heard, and not have to explain everything over multiple sessions. Just an hour, no pressure, no expectations.

I’m curious, do you think having a space to talk outside of your usual social circle would help with that kind of loneliness? Would you find something like that useful? I would  love to hear how others experience this, especially if you’re someone with a packed schedule.
