Increased isolation

What is increased isolation?

Social isolation is the pervasive withdrawal or avoidance of social contact or communication. It can contribute toward, or be the result of, many emotional, behavioural and physical disorders (anxiety, panic attacks, eating disorders, addictions, substance abuse, violence and overall disease).

"I will update my symptoms report and see how my status has changed. It gives you a sense of how the disease is changing over time with many many symptoms."PatientsLikeMe member bkincaid
