James - We've got 4 dogs and 3 cats, plus some fish. They're great for depression, although sometimes just taking care of all of them is a little overwhelming. I like that they're always sooo happy to see me. What could be better than that. A dependable friend who loves to see me all the time.
They do get nervous though when I'm crying and sad, so I have to take time to comfort them. What pets do you have? I also find my rose garden is very comforting with my depression. I can lose myself when I'm in the garden.

Anyone else have pet and find they are a great help
