9. Loneliness
Loneliness is a very popular cause of stress. There are people who can be lonely for longer period than other ones, somebody loves being alone, while someone can not even think of it. People usually enjoy a company, a close person beside them. We can compare ourselves with a pack of wolves, which always cling together. Human beings should live in a ‘tribe’ to avoid hazard – like they say ‘safety in a quantity’. Feeling low and being lonely are perfect stress factors.
