Depression and anxiety’s been on an all time rise in our world. But what are some things that can help us reduce these feelings? I believe pets are a great option for anyone struggling with their mental health. There are so many benefits that come with owning a pet specifically if you deal with loneliness, depression, or anxiety.
Studies show that interacting or owning animals can boost your mood, reduce loneliness, and even lower your blood pressure. Stress levels go down, people experience higher self esteem which could be what you need to help with your mental health. If you have children pets can even help with their social skills and mood. The unconditional love from a pet can do so much more than keep you company which is why you should consider adopting one especially if you struggle with mental health.
