Instead of a support animal

There should be support friends.

You know..they simply help you get motivated...help keep you going...assist with chores and give you pep talks.

Yes.....

This is the way.

Could those be life coaches?

No...I dont want someone to think they have all the answers to life...just to be hanging out with me so I feel less lonely.

Having other people around makes me feel better, not sure why.

@JaggedLittlePill A life coach who thinks they have it all figured out isn't a good life coach. A good life coach is someone who can look at someones life and help guide them in a certain direction.

But friends are also amazing to have. I've not met a friend though who stuck by me through it all. There are way too many ego issues that come in.

We're social creatures, so it makes sense to feel better in groups. Group can be of 2 too.
