Loneliness is a mental state of a person, which manifests itself in the absence of communication, isolation from other people. In adolescence, the phenomenon of loneliness is determined by the action of the mechanism of growing up, and, as a result, has a special place and significance. Scientists emphasize several groups of factors that give rise to the state of loneliness in adolescence. The first group is certain features of this age period. The second group of factors consists of the adolescent's personal characteristics. The third group includes factors related to the adolescent's family, including the type of family upbringing. The study of the characteristics of adolescence gives grounds for asserting that teenagers are characterized by a subjective sense of adulthood, a desire for independence, and communication with a reference group. Teenagers experiencing loneliness are characterized by emancipation from their parents, self-absorption, awareness of their uniqueness. The study of the occurrence of adolescent loneliness involves the diagnosis of a person's characterological features, self-esteem, self-deprecation, incommunicability, personal relationships. Socio-psychological factors that contribute to the development of loneliness in teenagers are an unfavorable family and social environment, an ineffective type of upbringing, conflicts in the family, low self-esteem. Diagnosing loneliness in adolescence is a big step towards improving one's worldview, the ability to look at the world around in a new way, to discover new sides and possibilities in oneself. When looking for ways to overcome loneliness, it is necessary to analyze the situation, identify the causes of loneliness and try to survive this period. The implementation of the correctional program helps to understand the inner essence of loneliness and ways to overcome it within the framework of personality development.
