Reach out to one person

A small, low-pressure way to feel less alone

Loneliness tells us nobody wants to hear from us. Usually that isn't true. Start small.

Steps

  1. Think of one person you used to feel easy with: a cousin, old friend, neighbour or colleague.
  2. Write a short, simple message. "Thought of you today. How have you been?" is enough.
  3. Send it, and let go of how fast they reply. Reaching out is the whole task.
  4. Optional: plan one place this week where you'll be around people, like the masjid, a park or a class.
