The first part of the podcast is just to tell you you're not alone. Not having enough friends, not feeling like your social network is expansive enough can cause the same neural response as being in physical pain or experiencing extreme grief. So I really do sympathize with you if you're struggling to make lasting or good friendships in your 20s. The next section focuses on things that help us make friends in our 20s.
This week we discuss how to make new friendships in our 20’s. We all can recognise how hard it is to make friends as we enter adulthood but what does psychology actually say about this struggle and why is it so difficult as we move beyond our school years into work and the real world.
