Inside Out: Weekend loneliness

How do you feel at the start of your weekend?
Are you looking forward to a weekend of coffee dates, maybe a show or two, a summer BBQ, a beach trip with the kids?

I hope you’re feeling good, but, maybe the arrival of the weekend makes you feel anything but.
Maybe it stretches out before you, empty and looming, lonely and quiet.

You’re not alone. Weekend loneliness is very much alive, although not very well studied.
