What's the Link Between Loneliness and Depression? Unpacking a Recent Study

We all know loneliness is linked to depression, but what if we've been missing the real culprit? This meetup explores a pivotal new study that reveals it's not about **being** alone, but about how we **think** about being alone. Learn about the critical role of rumination and how breaking this cycle could be the key to building resilience.

Join us for an engaging evening where we will:

1. **Unpack the Insight:** Dive into the study's key finding—that ruminating about loneliness is the primary mechanism fueling depression, not loneliness itself.
2. **Discuss the Implications:** What does this research mean for our understanding of mental health? We'll have an open conversation about its significance.
3. **Explore Effective Strategies:** Learn about practical, research-supported techniques shown to help manage rumination, based on approaches the scientists found.
