The summary is organized in three main parts: what loneliness is, the different types of loneliness, and the various ways that people cope with loneliness.

                                                                                                The Experience of Loneliness

I have summarized the results and presented in three main parts: what people say are the causes of their loneliness, what loneliness feelings like, and how to people deal with feelings of loneliness.
