Hey guys! In today’s video, I decided to talk about the rise in loneliness online, especially with gen z who was recently deemed “the loneliest generation”. I talk about things such as my experience with loneliness, maintaining relationships online, being alone content online as well as the rise in podcasts. Lastly, I just discuss how to unplug and find friends in real life (which is possible)
