Abstract     In contemporary existentialism, there are four endearing concerns or anxieties that cause human anxiety. These worries are freedom, emptiness, death and loneliness. A person is looking for the security of the childhood of these worries. In this philosophical and literary school, the human being is known as a subject who, in the experience of being and touching the meaning of being, immediately faces the truth of life and finds its absurd and meaningless life, Then, relying on the protection of the gem of "freedom" and using the possibility of choosing and choosing a goal, it brings a meaning to the series of events and events called "life". Erwin Yalom, in line with these thoughts, has tried to study existential concerns, including loneliness, which leads to problems and disruptions in life, and finds solutions to them. In this paper, we look at ways of coping with this problem by relying on an existentialist approach by examining what and the types of loneliness.

Abstract Existentialism is one of the philosophical schools which covers a great part of the contemporary philosophy. Existentialist philosophers reflect upon man's being in a way other than the being of other entities; and accurately label this distinction of man's being as "existence". They are seeking to show the difference between man's being or existence in this world and [being of] other entities. Inevitably, they have to research in the way and form that man is in this world as well as his states and Existential issues. Though this approach has been focus of the thinkers of that time and after it, Soren Kierkegaard, with his basically religious reflection as opposed to logical philosophy and rational principles of Hegel, may be called the founder of Existentialism; and Gabriel Marcel, Karl Jaspers, Martin Heidegger, and Jean Paul Sartre may be enlisted as its main representatives.
The notable point is that philosophers of existance avoided systematization and did not provide a systematic philosophy. Though philosophical ideas in this extensive field are so diverse that it has produced some misunderstandings, because of the common way of philosophizing and their emphasis put on man instead of nature, they are classified under "Existentialist" category.
