Loneliness and social isolation are both well-established risk factors for shorter life spans in large *epidemiological studies that carefully follow participants over time. In a study of over 21,000 adults in Denmark, being socially isolated was associated with a 60–70 percent greater likelihood of death over a seven-year period. These effects hold up over even longer stretches of time. In a study of 2,588 men in Finland, social isolation and loneliness predicted mortality over a period of approximately twenty-three years. These findings are particularly striking given rates of loneliness, including in the United States: A 2021 survey by Cigna of US adults found that a stunning 58 percent reported feeling lonely. There are many explanations for why having a larger and stronger social support network supports psychological and physical **resilience. When people feel supported by family and friends, they tend to feel more confident and in better control; more motivated to adopt healthier and less risky behaviors, such as smoking and drinking alcohol; more inclined to use active coping strategies; and less likely to see negative or stressful events as being ***insurmountable.
