Mary Ellen Copeland applies the hands-on format that helped thousands overcome depression using her Depression Workbook to one of today's most pervasive problems: loneliness. Taking seniors, singles, and others through the steps necessary to relieve loneliness in the short run, the book also helps map out long-range goals for developing better relationship skills, reaching out for support, joining community activities, and fostering intimate relationships.

Good Practical Guide,
This review is from: The Loneliness Workbook (Paperback)
I personally really liked this book because it has practical solutions to end loneliness. I find a lot of the other books are too spiritual or wishy washy. Ending loneliness is a lot about how you conduct your life, not just about how you think about things.

Not What I Expected,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Loneliness Workbook (Paperback)
I'm glad the other reviewer found this book useful, but I'm afraid I didn't. I found the author's advice simplistic and naive. She seems to believe that a simple resolution to have only nice thoughts about oneself will drive out self-doubt and self-criticism, and that resolving to improve one's social skills is the same thing as actually doing it. (How the reader is supposed to identify these deficits specifically enough to eliminate them, with no feedback from others, is another story...)If this approach worked as well as she seems to think, then why do most people struggle to keep their New Year's resolutions? Again, I'm happy the book helped someone, but it didn't help me.
