Reconnecting With Old Friends Boosts Mental Health, Says New Study

There are friends and there is family, but there are friends who become family. Growing up, you can have a million so called “friends” but you need to filter out the real ones and that only happens over time. And if you do get them, trust us when we tell you, don’t let them go. Just don’t do it.

Some people have a very large circle of friends, while others may have a small circle of a select few. It doesn’t matter, all that matters is having some real friends. Quality over quantity.

Have you ever wondered when was the last time you met your best friends? Have you ever thought about when was the last time you hugged your friends?

According to a Healthline story, a recent study found that reconnecting with old friends is incredibly good for people’s mental health. The mental state improves significantly as a result of this.

Not only that, but a phone call, email, or text message can improve mental health. The value of lifelong acquaintances has grown even more after the Corona epidemic. Due to corona, most people have had to deal with mental health problems. The elderly are more vulnerable to these problems. Even minor changes can help mental health in this situation. This is true for people of all ages.

Well, the pain is real and we can all relate to it, especially after the waves of a pandemic where everything was done online, from ordering food to all those Skype meetings with your friends. We ended up slowly losing connections with them. It may sound strange to hear but this affects our mental health.

According to the World World Health Organization (WHO), there has been a 25 percent increase in cases of depression and anxiety worldwide due to the coronavirus. Many studies have revealed that adults age 50 and older have experienced mental health problems, especially during the pandemic.
