Last night I was reading a tweet that was expressing the frustration of the people who were not able to cross state and see their parents for more than 15 months now. The loneliness is really taking toll on people’s mental wellness. Especially for the single folks who stay alone.
I remember during our 2nd lockdown earlier this year, there was an employee who chatted with me that said the same thing. She was renting a room & she was dying to come back to the office to interact with people again. She told me she cried often in the room at night cause she was so lonely & depressed. I told her, can always text me & sembang, then she said, “Aiya nanti kacau, malu lah….”
So I’ve decided to kacau her & texted her instead to sembang2 cause I tak tahu malu.
If you know someone who is suffering the same in silence, do reach out. I am sure it will mean the world to them.
