The I Know Lonely Project harnesses the power of stories, cultivates empathy & understanding, inspires meaningful connections, and helps people feel less lonely. The project is a set of stories produced by Only7Seconds, each episode you'll hear from different people sharing their life experiences. We believe stories have the power to remind us that we are not as alone as we may feel.

30. Lorie’s Story: on being “the strong friend” and how someone taking only 7 seconds literally saved her life
*The following story contains content around suicide & mental health struggles that may be sensitive to some viewers.
Meet Lorie, the final storyteller of season 2 for the I Know Lonely Project. Whewwww, we know all of these have been incredible, but this last one is one you don’t want to miss.
When her story took a different direction than she expected, Lorie found herself alone at the darkest point in her life. A friend reaching out with a simple message during a moment of crisis ended up changing the trajectory for her. She also shares about the loneliness in being “the strong friend” and how she’s discovered the safety of relationships with people who do care. Her hope is that her story will give others hope that there is light even when you can’t see it.
