The only proper solution to combating isolation is to get out and connect with other people. I know it isn't always easy for many reasons, but it does make a difference to you.

Medication can help a lot of conditions and I'm not at all against it. But steroids often have unwelcome side effects that can be quite serious. There are much better social solutions to isolation.
