Hi, how do you manage taking care yourself if you feel alone most of the time because you are away from your family and feeling of not having a supportive friends?

I think that one important key to self-care when you are lonely is to find ways to connect with others. I've head of people list off all their hobbies, likes, things they enjoy, then they take that list and brainstorm how they can meet up with people who have similar interests. Obviously, I don't know you or if you are in a place where you can do this but it seems like it might be a good way to meet up with others. Possibly extending phone calls and letters to your friends and family. Praying for you!
