1 . How can teenagers keep themselves from suffering from loneliness? Here are some suggestions for speeding a recovery from loneliness.
Find a safe place to make connections.If going to the dancing party makes you feel like you just don't belong，try joining a special-interest group.Maybe it’s the drama club or the marching band.Just because you feel left out in one group doesn't mean you'll feel like an outsider in every other one.
Find other ways of making connections.Lonely people hunger for friendship.Sometimes feeling accepted and liked comes more easily when you do something for others rather than waiting for them to make you feel better.
Choose the right people.Loneliness is an absence of quality friendship，not of a particular quantity of friends.
You get what you expect，so expect the best.If you expect others to be friendly，you will behave in proper ways that encourage people to be friendlier to you.It can be hard work to be positive toward others.
