Comfort objects are items that provide emotional support and a sense of security, often used by children during times of stress or anxiety. These objects can include stuffed animals, blankets, or toys, and they help individuals feel safe and calm. Many people carry these items into adulthood, as they can evoke feelings of nostalgia and comfort. The use of comfort objects is not limited to children; adults may also have items that bring them solace, such as photographs, jewelry, or mementos from significant life events. These objects serve as reminders of positive experiences and connections, helping to alleviate feelings of loneliness or distress.
