Ok, So this may be a bit long and if I begin to ramble, I apologize. But I will try to keep it as short, yet informative as I can. So, My dad lost his job and my family made a conscious decision to move out of state to Nebraska where my dad already has a job lined up and pretty much already has the job. It's with his friends old company. Anyways, My brother moved in with us because my mom and I wont be up there for another good few months. So my brother moved back home and will be going up with my dad. They are set to leave this Sunday. Anyway, My relationship is not good with anybody in my family by any means specifically my dad. The only person I get along with, Is my sweet little 44year old mom. Anyway, I have been under alot of stress lately. I have to take my g.e.d before I move and have to do various other things in order to prepare for the move and like everyone else, I am under serious amounts of stress. I've already suffered a severe panic attack that I have neglected to tell anyone about because im stubborn. Anyway, I didnt take the beardies out tonight. They were both already under their logs and drifting on and off to sleep by the time I got settled in for the night. I didnt want to disturb them, So I just kept them in their cage. Well I have been feeling really nervous and anxious all night. I've seen people post similiar topics like this about whether or not a beardie could be a service animal or not. But I just want to get my own feedback and opinions from anybody, Can/are beardies therapeutic? I never feel stressed when I have them out on the bed with me at night and when im cuddling them. I feel somewhat happy and I feel like I actually have someone who I can tell all my problems too and not have to worry about them repeating anything I just said and if im really down, I will gladly talk to my beardies. I know, Kinda weird, But I know lots of other members here talk to their beardies, So I dont feel to out of place. And talking to them really gives me this calm sense and makes me feel like everything will be alright. And I know im repeating myself here, But I feel like I've got 2 great scaly friends who will keep all my secrets and hear me out. Anyways, What does everybody else think? Can our Beardies be Therapeutic?
