Let Them. — Feeling lonely can change the way your brain operates. Kasley Killam, Harvard-trained friendship expert and researcher on social connection, shares that when you’re lonely for a long time, your brain shifts into protection mode. Kasley shares research that found that the brain of someone who’s been isolated all day looks similar to the brain of someone who hasn’t eaten all day. Your brain treats loneliness like hunger… a biological cue saying, “You’re missing something essential.” It makes you more guarded. You notice negative cues more than positive ones. And without meaning to, you can pull back from the connection you’re actually looking for. This conversation on The Mel Robbins Podcast with Kasley reframes loneliness as normal, useful information from your body, and a starting point for rebuilding your social health.

Segment 1 (00:00 - 01:00)

Can you talk a little bit about what loneliness does to your brain and your body and why it is so important to take your social health seriously? — Sure. So the neuroscience on this is really interesting. For one thing, we see that when people are chronically lonely, that can trigger some really limiting self-beliefs. So, for example, people who are feeling disconnected might go into a social interaction feeling more guarded, less likely to open up and share, interpreting negative cues more than they're interpreting positive cues. And all of that can actually inhibit them from having a positive interaction with the other person. Ironically, it's a bit of a self-fulfilling prophecy. However, there's also good news here. So in one study, researchers compared the brain activity of people who had been isolated all day with not eaten all day. So they were either isolated and lonely or they were hungry. The same brain regions were activated. So what that tells us is that loneliness registers as a cue in our brain. It's literally a signal telling you, hey, there's something you need that you're not getting. It's actually a really helpful thing from our bodies. So, in a way, I want to reframe loneliness as something that's totally normal, first of all, that is actually helpful and that can be a motivator to go make the changes that you need to make in your life.
