Whether we admit it not, many of us have experienced loneliness.
Last month, a survey done by US health service company Cigna found that loneliness has become a common phenomenon in the country. It even found that young people aged 18-22 are more likely to feel lonely than senior citizens.
Loneliness often leads to the emotions of sadness and loss, and can even "make us sick"， as USA Today noted. So, how do we deal with the pain of loneliness？
Immersing（使……沉浸）ourselves in distractions（分心的事）can be useful.US lifestyle writer Adrienne Breaux wrote about how she turned loneliness into a productive learning process. She used to be a terrible cook, but whenever loneliness hit her, she would buy a lot of ingredients and figure out how to make them into delicious dishes. After a few months, she became good at cooking dishes she'd never even made before.
This is a typical example of how loneliness gets us out of our comfort zone（舒适区）and allows us to grow. "When it comes to keeping loneliness at bay（控制住）， one of the best ways to do it is to occupy your time with things that feel enriching, creative and exciting," Breaux wrote. "It's hard to feel lonely when you're trying to master a new skill, practice a hobby or try out a new recipe."
The attitude we choose toward loneliness is also the key to tackling（解决）it. If we see loneliness as an unwanted and annoying thing, we will resist it. But if we admit that it's an everyday part of life, we'll be able to "embrace（接受）the beauty of our solo（单独的）journey，" as best-selling US author Mandy Hale wrote in her book The Single Woman.
Instead of desperately（迫切地）finding someone to talk to or hang out with, trying to have fun on our own is more practical. US lifestyle writer Kayla Albert shared a story of her friend, who uses her time alone to do what she really wants to do, on personal development site Think Simply Now. Her friend goes out for dinner, watches movies, and visits art museums -- all on her own. So, we can do it too. Indeed, sometimes, the best songs are the ones performed alone.
