BedDweller 1 Report post Posted November 8, 2020 Maybe it's just me, but when I'm experiencing high levels of anxiety, I want to be hugged by my mom (hugs from other people don't count, oddly), which does help a little. Does anyone else do this to cope? If not, what do you crave when you need comfort? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Total Eclipse 68 Report post Posted November 8, 2020 I have to be calmed down from anxiety and then hugged. If I'm too worked up, a hug will cause me more anxiety. But once it's lowered a hug from a few selective people really help comfort me and even further lowers my anxiety. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
