Ever scroll through social media feeling strangely alone?
It's a common experience. Loneliness is more than just being physically isolated. Welcome to your one-stop shop for all things mental health and Happy Jack Entertainment (HJE). This newsletter tackles the surprising reasons behind loneliness and, more importantly, offers actionable tips to help you build strong connections and combat that feeling of isolation.
Loneliness in America
We sat down with former Surgeon General Dr. Jerome Adams to discuss the loneliness epidemic in America. He discusses its profound effects on mental health and physical well-being. Don’t miss out!

Here are a few quick tips:
Focus on Quality Connections:
Quantity doesn't equal quality. Prioritize deepening existing friendships over chasing a large social circle.
Practice Self-Care:
Loneliness can be draining. Prioritize activities that make you feel good, like exercise, hobbies, or spending time outdoors
Embrace Technology for Good:
Online communities, virtual meetups, and therapy apps can offer connection and support.
Speaking of therapy…

Umi “People ask me, ‘Umi, how do you stay so positive?’ I’m like, it’s a practice. I practiced being positive, and I have to remind myself to, and you build the habit so then it becomes a default. It’s not like this thing that you are born with or not born with,” says Umi on Therapy Sessions.
