JUST A LITTLE PS TO CONNECTING WITH FRIENDS
There are ways to help you stay more connected. Send a text when you think of a person. Or actually schedule a monthly phone call, especially to those long distance friends.
Stop with excuses such as, "I have nothing to wear or I need some ME time." Of course, we all need some ME time. Just schedule some social time for yourself too.
There really are three pillars of health - physical, mental AND social. People who feel more supported seem to get ill less often. Getting hugs helps to release chemicals within us that fight off stress. We all underestimate ourselves. Look for meaningful and mutual. If a friend suddenly seems distant, don't take it personally. Let them know that you care.
Put yourself out there. We all want and need more friends.
