Let’s have a coffee! – Turkey

World Down Syndrome Day 2026
Together Against Loneliness

We asked self-advocates about loneliness. Some said that being alone from time to time can feel good. However, most described loneliness as a sad feeling.
When they feel lonely, spending time with friends helps them feel better. Talking together, having coffee, dancing, joking at work, and listening to music are among the moments they enjoy most.
They also shared a powerful message for people who feel lonely:
“Let’s help those who feel lonely, so they don’t feel alone.”
Because the strongest response to loneliness is being together.
