💡 Ensam i en värld full av människor – En bok om ensamhet, gemenskap och att hitta hem hos sig själv Du kan ha människor runt dig hela tiden – och ändå känna dig ensam. Och vet du vad? Du är långt ifrån ensam om den känslan. I Sverige uppger över en miljon människor att de besväras av ensamhet, och bland unga män säger mer än var fjärde att de inte har någon att prata med om det som känns på riktigt. Ensamhet är inte ett undantag – det är en tyst gemensam erfarenhet. "Ensam i en värld full av människor" är boken som bryter tystnaden. Med verkliga berättelser, psykologisk insikt och konkreta steg mot gemenskap hjälper den dig att förstå, acceptera och förändra din ensamhet – på ditt sätt. 🌿Den här boken är för dig som: Känner dig ensam, trots att du har människor omkring dig. Har tappat kontakten med vänner – eller aldrig riktigt hittat din plats. Vill förstå varför ensamhet gör ont, och hur man kan hitta vägar ut. 💡I boken möter du människor som vågat sätta ord på det tystaste vi bär på: Emelie, som var den glada på jobbet – men grät varje kväll hemma. William, som varje midsommar scrollade genom andras fester – och undrade varför ingen bjöd. Amanda, som hade tusen likes men noll riktiga samtal – tills hon började söka kontakt på riktigt. Du får mer än igenkänning – du får vägar vidare: ✔️ Perspektiv på olika sorters ensamhet – från den existentiella till den sociala. ✔️ Övningar och reflektionsfrågor för att förstå dig själv bättre. ✔️ Praktiska tips för att skapa kontakt, bygga vänskap och trivas i ditt eget sällskap. 🎁 Passar perfekt för: Den som längtar efter äkta gemenskap – men inte vet var man ska börja. Dig som vill förstå dig själv bättre och hitta trygghet i ditt eget sällskap. Du som är trött på att känna dig ensam – och redo att ta små steg mot förändring. ✨ Det är inget fel på dig – ensamhet är inte ett misslyckande. Det är en mänsklig erfarenhet. Och du är inte den enda som känner så här – men du kan bli den som vågar göra något åt det.

Ensamhet är ett mångtydigt mänskligt fenomen. Den kan vara både en tillgång och en börda. I en personlig brevväxling belyser författarna detta gåtfulla fenomen.Vad är ensamhet? Hur kan vi förstå ensamhet? Kan vi upphäva ensamhet?
I denna brevväxling mellan författarna vänder och vrider de på ensamhet som företeelse och begrepp. I det sammanhanget berörs även andra existentiella innebörder som skuld och skam, val som görs i livet och upplevelser av tid och rum. Upplevelser av ensamhet knyts också till vårdlidande, det vill säga det onödiga lidande som orsakas av vårdande.
Breven rör sig mellan teori och det praktiskt konkreta, mellan den personliga reflektionen och den vetenskapliga förståelsen. Genom textens originella tilltal vänder sig boken inte bara till dem som möter människor i sina yrken utan också till en bred allmänhet. Ensamhet angår oss alla.
Sagt om boken"En utmärkt berörande bok - som med ett något mer iögonenfallande och kraftfullt omslag samt ett antal sparsmakade bilder lättare lockat även en bredare läsekrets." Lektör Margareta Wiman, BTJ-häftet nr 8, 2015.
Om författarnaDe tre författarna har lång erfarenhet av såväl sjukvård som akademisk forskning: Karin Dahlberg är författare och professor i vårdvetenskap. Carl-Magnus Stolt är läkare, författare och var Sveriges förste professor i humanistisk medicin. Helena Dahlberg är idéhistoriker, dansare och filosof.

ENSAMHET KAN SES som ett grundvillkor för människans varande. Men det finns flera slags ensamheter och flera förmodade sanningar om ensamhet, bland annat den att människor idag skulle vara ensammare än förut. Stämmer det faktiskt?
I sin mångsidiga, skarpa och berörande essä utforskar filosofen Nora Hämäläinen ensamheter. Hämäläinen beskriver ensamhet under livets olika skeden: barndomens hypersociala gårdstillvaro, tonårens sociala omförhandlingar, vuxenårens professionella band och ålderdomens glesning i de sociala kontakterna. Hon läser bland andra Claes Andersson, Sara Lidman och Joyce Carol Oates för litterära perspektiv på ensamhet.
Klart och elegant funderar Hämäläinen kring ensamhetens filosofiska, strukturella och arkitektoniska bakgrundsfaktorer. I stället för att söka fel hos individen och tvinga den ensamma att granska sig själv vänder Nora Hämäläinen blicken mot den mångfald av upplevelser som ordet ensamhet rymmer, och de många olika omständigheter som kan göra oss ensamma.

Vi talar sällan om det, men vi är många som kan känna oss ensamma. Det kan vara en faktisk avsaknad av social samvaro eller en känsla av att inte bli sedd, förstådd och bekräftad av de människor man har runt omkring sig.Ensamhet bör beskrivas som en av vår tids folksjukdomar. Vi har skapat ett samhälle som fokuserar på individen oavsett hur det får oss att må, och inte sällan blir kostnaden stress, ensamhet och en känsla av tomhet. Samtidigt står såväl samhället som den drabbade ofta handfallna när det kommer till att åtgärda problemet. Hur gör man egentligen för att få nya vänner? Hur lever man med någon, och inte bara bredvid? Hur vågar man ta de där viktiga små stegen till en förändrad livssituation med större gemenskap?Anna Bennich, leg psykolog och leg psykoterapeut, möter många människor som kämpar med olika former av ensamhet. Här beskriver hon tillståndets olika uttryck, orsaker och effekter. Hon lyfter fram den senaste forskningen om relationernas betydelse för vår hälsa och ger handfasta tips och strategier för hur vi kan öka och fördjupa relationerna i våra liv. Hon lyfter även frågan om allas vårt gemensamma ansvar för att se och finnas till för varandra.

Kanske har du nyligen börjat känna dig ensam eller känt dig ensam och lite utanför en stor del av ditt liv. Kanske saknar du ett socialt nätverk eller lider av ensamhet trots att du har människor som bryr sig om dig. Ensamhet som inte är självvald är smärtsam. Ofta leder ensamhet till att onda cirklar uppstår som gör att självkänslan sjunker och att tankar om att andra inte vill vara med en blir starka. Men det går att ta sig ut ur ensamheten.
I Ut ur ensamheten hjälper den erfarna psykologen Martina Wolf-Arehult dig att reflektera över vilken form av ensamhet som skapar problem för dig och vilket behov av närhet och samhörighet just du har. Du får sedan ta del av olika strategier och förhållningssätt som kan hjälpa dig ut ur ensamheten, bland annat hur du:
• visar omvärlden att du är öppen för kontakt• skapar en känsla av trygghet• slutar jämföra och döma dig själv• hanterar social ångest• skapar värme och närhet i kontakten med andra• skapar mening• hittar en balans i hur mycket du vill anpassa dig till andras behov• visar vänlighet och omsorg gentemot dig själv.

This book presents a thematic analysis of various aspects of solitude, silence and loneliness, from the ancient world to the present day, explored thematically with consideration to the links between aloneness to other social and political issues. The themes include exile (expulsion from a community), ecstasy (getting ‘out of oneself’) and enstasy (being comfortable within oneself), to the Romantic idea of the artist as solitary. There is work on aloneness in and through nature, especially the importance of natural settings for positive experiences of solitude. A central theme is alienation and its emotions, with the idea of loneliness and the rejected self being a more modern experience. The book explores modernism and postmodernism as presenting new forms of solitude in the twentieth century, and how, more recently, there have been attempts to ‘recover’ the self, through therapeutic uses of the arts. All of these types and experiences of aloneness are described through the lenses of artistic, literary and musical forms of expression, as aloneness is not only explored and articulated through these art forms, but is in many ways created through these art forms.

In a world where we’re more connected than ever, why is it that we’re also more lonely? Dip into this anthology of classic writing to reclaim the pleasure of your own company.Part of the Macmillan Collector’s Library; a series of stunning pocket size classics. These beautiful books make perfect gifts or a treat for any book lover. This edition is edited and introduced by writer and academic, Zachary Seager.The Art of Solitude shows some of the myriad ways in which people throughout history have understood their experiences of solitary life, or have counselled others to benefit from solitude. It contains poetry, essays, autobiographical pieces and short stories from writers such as Virginia Woolf, Edgar Allen Poe, Emily Dickinson and Ralph Waldo Emerson.These diverse works can teach us how to think in freedom, how to enjoy a profound inner life and how best to cope with the fact that, as the novelist Joseph Conrad put it, we live, as we dream – alone. Above all, they show how we might truly connect with ourselves and, in the process, how we can meaningfully connect with those around us, including the earth itself. Looked at in this way, solitude is always focused both outward and inward, towards the self and towards the world. The cure for loneliness is, in the end, the art of solitude.

Have you ever felt like you're shouting into the void for someone to just see you and to acknowledge that you exist, that you have value, that you are loved?That feeling-like no one can really see who you are, like no one really gets it, that's loneliness. The truth is everyone feels lonely. It is a universal emotion, one we all experience at one point or another, but we have also been made to feel ashamed, oppressed and stigmatised about experiencing it.Being seen means that someone notices you and includes you. Being heard means to be listened to without interruption, gaslighting or invalidation, but rather with compassion and understanding. Being valued means being respected and treated with compassion and kindness. When all three of these needs are met, we experience a sense of belonging. Human beings need more than access to food, sleep and water to survive. We also need to feel that sense of belonging, understanding and support.This book will help you reduce your shame around loneliness, to help you manage it, and to foster a sense of belonging. It will help you identify how loneliness may show up in your own life, understand how it impacts you, and help you discover some actionable steps you can take in order to feel seen, heard and valued. You deserve nothing less.

THE NO.1 SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER ‘Bravely revealing’ BERNARDINE EVARISTO‘Funny, moving, helpful and true, Friendaholic deserves a massive audience’ SATHNAM SANGHERA‘This book is brilliant’ JO ELVIN‘Essential reading… admirably candid and well-crafted’ GUARDIAN As a society, there is a tendency to elevate romantic love. But what about friendships? Aren't they just as – if not more – important? So why is it hard to find the right words to express what these uniquely complex bonds mean to us? In Friendaholic: Confessions of a Friendship Addict, Elizabeth Day embarks on a journey to answer these questions. Growing up, Elizabeth wanted to make everyone like her. Lacking friends at school, she grew up to believe that quantity equalled quality. Having lots of friends meant you were loved, popular and safe. She was determined to become a Good Friend. And, in many ways, she did. But in adulthood she slowly realised that it was often to the detriment of her own boundaries and mental health.Then, when a global pandemic hit in 2020, she was one of many who were forced to reassess what friendship really meant to them – with the crisis came a dawning realisation: her truest friends were not always the ones she had been spending most time with. Why was this? Could she rebalance it? Was there such thing as…too many friends? And was she really the friend she thought she was?Friendaholic unpacks the significance and evolution of friendship. From exploring her own personal friendships and the distinct importance of each of them in her life, to the unique and powerful insights of others across the globe, Elizabeth asks why there isn’t yet a language that can express its crucial influence on our world.From ghosting and frenemies to social media and seismic life events, Elizabeth leaves no stone unturned. Friendaholic is the book you buy for the people you love but it's also the book you read to become a better friend to yourself.

Need a rental person who does nothing?Shoji Morimoto provides a fascinating service to the lonely and socially anxious. After an old boss told him that he contributed nothing and that it made no difference whether he showed up to work or not, he wondered if a person who ‘does nothing’ could still have a place in the world. With a tweet, his Rental Person service was born.- Have a deep secret you desperately need to reveal, so deep that you can’t tell a friend or family member?- Have you spent a long time home alone, and want to know what it’s like to have somebody with you at your apartment?- Or for someone to simply think of you on a stressful day? Or wave to you as you leave the train station on a long journey?Morimoto is dependable, non-judgmental and committed to remaining a stranger throughout each request, and his encounters are revelatory about both Japanese society and human psychology.In Rental Person Who Does Nothing, Morimoto chronicles his extraordinary experiences in his unique line of work and reflects on how we consider relationships, jobs and family in our search for meaningful connection and purpose in life.

Today, I’m starting a ‘rent a person who does nothing‘ service . . . Except for very simple conversation, I’m afraid I can do nothing.Shoji Morimoto was constantly being told that he was a ‘do-nothing’ because he lacked initiative. Dispirited and unemployed, it occurred to him that if he was so good at doing nothing, perhaps he could turn it into a business. And with one tweet, he began his business of renting himself out . . . to do nothing.Morimoto, aka Rental Person, provides a fascinating service to the lonely and socially anxious. Sitting with a client undergoing surgery, accompanying a newly-divorced client to her favourite restaurant, visiting the site of a client’s suicide attempt are just a few of his thousands of true life adventures. He is dependable, non-judgmental and committed to remaining a stranger and the curious encounters he shares are revelatory about both Japanese society and human psychology.In Rental Person Who Does Nothing, Morimoto chronicles his extraordinary experiences in his unique line of work and reflects on how we consider relationships, jobs and family in our search for meaningful connection and purpose in life.

The true life adventures of Shoji Morimoto, who launched a business in which he rents himself out to do nothing in Japan.'Distinctively Japanese musings on meaning and connection' – ObserverNeed a rental person who does nothing? Shoji Morimoto provides a fascinating service to the lonely and socially anxious. After an old boss told him that he contributed nothing and that it made no difference whether he showed up to work or not, he wondered if a person who ‘does nothing’ could still have a place in the world. With a tweet, his Rental Person service was born.- Have a deep secret you desperately need to reveal, so deep that you can’t tell a friend or family member?- Have you spent a long time home alone, and want to know what it’s like to have somebody with you at your apartment?- Or for someone to simply think of you on a stressful day? Or wave to you as you leave the train station on a long journey?Morimoto is dependable, non-judgmental and committed to remaining a stranger throughout each request, and his encounters are revelatory about both Japanese society and human psychology.In Rental Person Who Does Nothing, Morimoto chronicles his extraordinary experiences in his unique line of work and reflects on how we consider relationships, jobs and family in our search for meaningful connection and purpose in life.
