  > Chronic loneliness can be a serious, life-threatening health condition. At least one study has empirically correlated it with an increased risk of cancer, especially for those who hide their loneliness from the outside world,[34] and it is also associated with increased risk of stroke and cardiovascular disease.[35] I really don't follow the argument: living in major city also increases cancer risk, in order to justify calling loneliness “life-threatening health condition” one should really provide more relevant information.
