Social or emotional solitaire? The health of one of the two is in danger
Summary
The news explains how the problem of loneliness seriously affects a considerable number of people in our country. Doctors who treat the consequences of this situation distinguish between social and emotional loneliness. The news makes a very clear distinction between these two types of solitude. Emotional loneliness is the traditional one suffered by people affected by a loss or a similar emotional situation. This is the specific case of elderly people who often lose their loved ones which puts them in a situation of loneliness that can lead to a problem or psychological affectation that can affect their health. Social loneliness is a new phenomenon that affects people of any age, including children, and has appeared in recent years by the use of the Internet and social networks that can produce the effect of a lack of real human relationships that lead to feelings of loneliness The consequence of this kind of state of mind can be really serious, since affected people can develop diseases that can affect public health.

The subject of this news did not contain a very specific vocabulary that I did not understand.
Text commentary
The news is about loneliness and all the problems and diseases that people who suffer from it can develop. This is so as humans are social beings that we need to be part of a group in which to develop ties that allow us to progress individually. However, today's society develops aggressive and very demanding behaviors regarding work and personal behaviors that determine that individuals still surrounded by people are, in reality, alone emotionally most of the time.
Indeed, it may seem, seen from the outside, that currently people live in an open society in which they interact with other people 24 hours a day through new communication technologies. But, when it is observed in more detail, it is perceived that people do not really have the friends they seem to have and who, in reality, live in solitude. Virtual friends may be used to comment, to share images or perhaps to be with them at a certain time. Now, it may be that when a person needs some attention there is no one at his side. In a recent study he concluded that what youth fear most is loneliness. It's weird, since theoretically "you're never alone".
Finally, I want to highlight the reasons that have led me to choose this news. First, because of the importance it can have, especially for young people who, surprisingly, can suffer from loneliness. It is necessary to look for solutions to this problem because, probably, this is a problem for which there is no concern in the educational centers. I think it would be important to take into account the feelings of students on this issue at different ages in order to detect problems of loneliness and depression that can cause serious harm to children. Secondly, we must also attend to the other population group especially affected by this problem, which are the elderly, especially those who live without any company. To this end, activities should be supported, for example, such as promoting activities for this kind of people, such as singing, dancing, playing, either in municipal centers or in nursing homes.
In my opinion, I think it is a much more serious problem than it seems. There should be much more information and prevention on this issue. A long-term goal would be to make anyone in this life feel lonely. It is very difficult, I know, but it is time to start creating organizations that can promote campaigns, activities and studies of all kinds that can solve this serious situation. Finally, to say that it is also time for any "little person" to stop looking at the mobile screen and begin to observe and relate to the people around them. A hello, a few good days or a thank you, would be very good to start. In that moment you will realize that people are not on a screen but by your side.
