News24xx.com - Loneliness turned out to be an unsettling thing. This mental disorder is feared to be severe if not handled properly. FoxNews reported on October 16th 2018, doctors in UK can make unique recipes for patients who feel lonely. This recipe is not a medicine but a cooking class.

This is done as one of the steps of the British government to reduce the number of lonely people. This doctor's prescription is planned to be carried out in 2023 after all preparations have been completed.

Previously, Prime Minister Theresa May said loneliness is one of the biggest health problems at the moment. Because loneliness is associated with the emergence of various diseases ranging from heart disease, stroke amd evem Alzheimer's disease. The government says around 200,000 adults across the country do not have conversations with a friend or relative within a month. This certainly makes a person experience mental problems.

This anti-lonely strategy will later allow doctors to recommend various activities in their patients. Doctors can recommend activities such as cooking classes, walking groups to art classes. In this case the doctor does not give medicines.

To support this program, British government is ready to pour funds of around GBP 1.8 million. The plan of this program will be tested in Liverpool and New Malden regions. Then it will gradually proceed to other regions in UK.

Reporting from the Independent, early adult people tend to feel lonelier than other age groups. "This strategy is only the beginning of a long and wide social change in our country - but this is an important first step in the national mission to end loneliness in our country" May said.
