Abstract

Introduction: Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder is a disorder of children’s growth and development with neurodevelopmental disorders characterized by symptoms of inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity. ADHD in children can persist into adolescence in about 2.6% of the general population. About more than half of people with ADHD experience loneliness, a condition that is often not reported by patients but is evident in the negative emotions and behaviors they display. To explain the risk factors and impact of loneliness in adolescents with ADHD. Methods: Literature review. Results: The use of gadgets in today’s digital era increases the risk of increasing internet usage so that more contact is made online, which causes obstacles for adolescents in fostering social relationships and an increased risk of loneliness. Adolescents with ADHD have a negative assessment of themselves; they feel useless, lack confidence, and lack intelligence when compared to their peers. Economically, low-income family conditions and inappropriate parenting increase the risk of loneliness in ADHD adolescents. Adequate treatment will cause it to develop into other mental disorders such as anxiety, depression, defiant attitude disorder, and adolescent behavior disorder. Conclusions: Adolescents with ADHD are prone to experiencing loneliness. Parenting problems, family socioeconomics, past trauma, bullying, and several internal factors such as low self-confidence, insecurity, low adaptability, and lack of emotional control can cause loneliness. Keywords: ADHD, Adolescents, Loneliness, Mental Health, Psychological Well-Being

Abstract

Introduction: In this brief case report, we aim to focus on the spiritual aspect and how it may benefit in addressing loneliness. Case: The case is a female 62 years old, diagnosed with generalized anxiety disorder with a psychosocial stressor of perceived isolation (loneliness), treatment approach consists of medication and spiritual-integrated cognitive behavioral therapy focused on her loneliness. Discussion: According to the definition spirituality is related to a transcendental being (vertical) and relation with others, the environment, and oneself (horizontal). In loneliness, the psychosocial symptom of perceived social isolation might be caused by the falling apart of a spiritual relation, either vertical or horizontal. Conclusion: Loneliness might be prolonged by a change in spiritual value and addressing loneliness through a spiritual aspect is an area that needs to be explored in future studies.

Abstract

Introduction: Humans develop themselves and their personalities to survive and adapt to live with other humans in society as social beings. Healthy social relationships are essential for mental and physical health while disrupting social interactions can lead to loneliness and social isolation. This narrative review describes health problems in the elderly, especially depression and cardiovascular disease as a result of loneliness and social isolation. Methods: PubMed database was searched for studies written in English. Keywords to search the journals and ebooks are “loneliness”, “social isolation”, “depression”, “cardiovascular disease” and “old age”.Results: Loneliness and social isolation can occur in all age groups. It is more common in old age, where 50% of the population aged 60 years and over are at risk of experiencing social isolation and one-third experiencing loneliness. This should be of particular concern because it is a risk factor for increased morbidity and mortality in this population. This increased risk is greater than smoking, obesity, and physical inactivity. This situation is closely related to the increased incidence of depression and cardiovascular disease which are the main co-morbidities in the elderly. Conclusions: Problems of loneliness and social isolation that are not handled properly can increase the use of health services in the elderly, so special attention is needed to prevent adverse impacts on physical and mental health and reduce unnecessary use of health services. Keywords: Loneliness, Social Isolation, Depression, Cardiovascular Disease, Old Age.

Loneliness occurs in childhood and adolescence is a risk factor for poorer well-being. Loneliness in children and adolescents is a risk factor for depression, social anxiety, behavioral disorders, hyperactivity, substance abuse, suicide, and premature death. Studies showed more than 50% of mental health problems develop during childhood and adolescence, with the average age being 14.5, and poorer well-being resulting from loneliness has a long-term impact on health and well-being during adulthood. Conclusions: Bereavement during childhood and adolescence period is a risk of loneliness, which is associated with a variety of mental and behavioral health problems, decreased academic performance, and impairments in developmental tasks. Early prevention and intervention are needed to reduce the risk of disorders later in life and to increase resilience among bereaved children and adolescents.

Abstract

Introductions: Loneliness is a subjective feeling that is described as a sense of isolation, a bad feeling about the quality and quantity of social relationships that has a major impact on mental health, well-being and quality of life. Social isolation is an important predictor of loneliness. Social isolation is often experienced by schizophrenia patients who experience alienation, social disconnection, limited access, and social support for their mental health. This study aimed to describe the relationship and its effect and factors related of loneliness and mental health, expecially in Scizophrenia patients. Methods: This study is a literature review that collects from various sources of scientific journals related to loneliness and its effect to Schizophrenia patients. Results: Lack of social interaction causes low or poor and vulnerable self-concepts experienced by schizophrenia patients, this is suspected of causing maladaptive cognition of oneself and others. Self-esteem that is seen as bad, hallucinations and delusions that are negative and self-critical reinforces negative self-concept. Schizophrenic sufferers tend to experience distortions related to self-confidence and their environment, they often think that they cannot be accepted by their environment and their environment rejects them. These increases feelings of loneliness and is thought to increase the incidence of psychotic symptoms. Conclusions: Social isolation and loneliness are important issues for schizophrenia patients because they can increase morbidity and mortality rates. Loneliness increases the incidence of auditory hallucinations with paranoid thinking, as well as negative beliefs about oneself and others in schizophrenia patients.

Introduction: Chronic Renal Failure (CRF) refers to advanced, irreversible, and progressive renal failure. Existing treatment for CRF patients includes hemodialysis (HD), peritoneal dialysis, and kidney transplantation. HD is the most common replacement therapy for kidney function. HD patients often experience severe psychological problems such as anxiety, depression, loneliness, and many difficulties related to stress and unhealthy coping mechanisms. To describe preventive actions against the detrimental effects of loneliness in HD patients. Methods: Literature review. Results: The feeling of loneliness is always annoying and unwanted. Loneliness may limit human development and interfere with normal functioning. It is associated with a sense of hopelessness, abandonment or boredom, reduced self-esteem, alienation, an external sense of control and aggression, depression, hostility, and even suicidal tendencies. Feelings of sadness, loneliness, and fatigue are significant factors in reducing patient treatment adherence and even lead to premature death. Conclusions: It is paramount to cope with disease-related stress and anxiety in healthy ways. Comprehensive psychosocial intervention in HD patients could bring positive impacts on mental well-being to strengthen their sense of self, overcome loneliness, connect with others, and create good resilience for having to live with their chronic illness.

Abstract

Introduction: Motherhood is a lifelong learning process. Becoming a mother involves huge changes and a major shift in identity. We usually don’t pair loneliness with motherhood, but researchers have found that motherhood could be filled with lonely feelings. A study by the British Red Cross found that more than 83% of mothers under 30 years old feel lonely at some time. Even before COVID, one study found that more than 90 percent of moms reported feeling lonely after having kids, over one-third said they cried regularly, and more than half suffered from anxiety. This study aims to determine the problems with loneliness in motherhood and how they influence the whole family’s long-term growth and wellness. Methods: PubMed and Google Scholar were searched using the following keyword: (loneliness) AND (motherhood) AND (mental health) AND (maternal) using the journal publication filter for the 2018-2023 issue. Review: Loneliness isn’t only a concern for mothers but also for all family members. Mothers who experience a high degree of loneliness are likely to be depressed, which in turn leads to decreased self-esteem and poor health, and consequently the poor health of their children. Stronger involvement of the mother’s family, friends, and other support systems should be promoted. Conclusions: Researchers should pay attention to the facts that building close connections with others can stop social isolation in mothers from taking a toll on their mental health Keywords: Loneliness, Motherhood, Mental Health, Maternal

Abstract

Introduction: Children with special needs are often considered to be cursed. They are frequently ostracized from society thus making them feel lonely. This paper aims to help patients, especially children with special needs, find good friends through the review of current studies. Methods: This study used a descriptive quantitative method and data that was retrieved from Child and Adolescence Psychiatric Outpatients Daycare, Dr. Soetomo General Academic Hospital, Surabaya with 80 children with ADHD and 160 children with ASD. Results: A common intervention used in Indonesia is applied behavior analysis (ABA), a method that trains children to have social skills such as how to communicate, interact, and express themselves in social settings. Besides personal intervention, the need for integrated care for children with special needs such as pharmacological therapy, speech and behavioral therapy, occupational therapy, and special education, is needed to support them in helping them make friends. Conclusion: To help children with special needs make friends, we can give support, appreciation, and motivation. However, children with special needs need different treatment from their peers, so special attention and understanding are needed so that children with special needs can socialize and make friends well.

Abstract

Introduction: Internet users in Indonesia are growing from year to year. Based on the latest data from the Indonesian Internet Service Provider Association, known as Asosiasi Penyelenggaraan Jasa Internet Indonesia (APJII), in 2022, internet users in Indonesia reached 210 million. With a large number of internet users, there are positive and negative consequences that occur. Internet addiction began to be studied by many researchers. These studies include research on the factors that cause internet addiction, as well as its correlation with loneliness. To explain the correlation between internet addiction and loneliness. Methods: Literature review. Results: Loneliness is a complex and usually unpleasant emotion that is thought to be a factor in individuals experiencing internet addiction. Loneliness is the thought of loss and dissatisfaction that occurs due to a mismatch between the individual’s social interaction and the social interaction one expects. Hence to overcome the loneliness that is felt, individuals express themselves better in cyberspace than in person. Internet addiction is a condition in which internet users use the internet excessively, due to a lack of self-control and interferes with their daily tasks and functions, to the detriment of themselves. This sums in several negative consequences. Studies showed that internet addiction and loneliness are correlated and mutually reinforcing. Conclusions: The relationship between loneliness and internet use is bidirectional in the sense that just as the internet may drive individuals towards loneliness, loneliness can also encourage individuals to spend more time on the internet.
