I'm looking to cuddle to help me feel warmer emotionally. I have been depressed for 2 years now, so I thought I might try this out.
Cuddling sure can help you feel cared for and valued, and be very therapeutic.
A couple of things to watch out for if you are prone to depression though: it can be discouraging if you send messages to lots of people and get no replies. This doesn't reflect on you though (unless you're sending creepy messages); it's just a dynamic of this site sometimes. I can recommend filling out your profile a little more though, so people know more about you.
Another thing is that sometimes (not always), after a cuddle "high" people can feel sad after it is over. Just something to be aware of ...
Maybe if would be good to start by seeing a professional cuddler, for a few reasons: it's likely that you will be able to meet them fairly quickly, once they believe you aren't a weirdo or looking for sex .They are happy to make you the focus of the cuddle, which is important for you since you are feeling in need right now. And professionals are usually great cuddlers too.
I agree with most everything respectful said . Most of us don’t assume you are weirdo looking for sex . We are cautious of those looking for services we don’t provide . Nothing wrong with going to a sex worker this just isn’t the place for that .if you are Respecting boundaries all will be ok .
Cuddles can be comforting and healing as long as you have realistic expectations . I don’t think cuddling can cure clinical depression but it can be a wonderful tool to help cope with it while you get professional help . It can alleviate symptoms for sure and lessen the intensity .
