The Importance of Having a Chat With Friends in Today's Digital Age

Having a conversation with friends, even regularly or seemingly out of context (hello, too busy lives), can have high value in preventing the depression-Numb-in-drugs as well. Chatting with friends (via messages or video) helps us stay CONNECTED and SUPPORTED! We underestimate a conversation with someone, but this little thing makes the day-to-day happiness of our lives.
