Pet lovers rejoice! This week, Christina and Lauren talk about the ways their pets have impacted their mental health—and not just in the ways you’d expect. Topics include how to know you’re ready for a pet when coping with mental health is a challenge, how our struggles can affect our pets and vice versa, our fear of pet trauma, and why our pets are the best pets. We also share our pets’ origin stories and recount some of our pet parent lows. Enjoy!
This episode touches on some difficult themes such as pet death, suicide, and eating disorder talk. Listen at your own discretion and stay safe.
