Is there an object or possession you turn to when you need comforting?

B Natural answer

For me, it’s usually a cup of tea and a few minutes alone. I make it, hold it for a while, and sit quietly without checking my phone. That small routine gives me space to slow down. Sometimes I also take a deep breath and think about what is actually bothering me.
