Pets and Weather???


23 years ago 0 36 logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo 0
Hi Everyone, I have two questions. 1) Does anyone find that their anxiety gets worse depending on the weather? (for example, i find that mine gets worse with humidity) I don't really know how to word this next one, so try to catch my meaning! 2) Does anyone have a pet or animal that they feel helps with their anxiety? If yes, what kind, and how do they help? If no, do you think that an animal could help you? -> I personally have found animals to be rather therapeutic. I have a dog who i depend on, and have recently started horseback riding, which has really added a positive activity into my routine. Anyways, i just wanted to know people's thoughts on this. This is NOT a research study or anything, just questions that i've never had the opportunity to have answered before!
