My roommate's "emotional support" cactus turned out to be a real thing
I thought it was a joke when Greg brought home a 2-foot saguaro and said it calmed his anxiety before finals. But last month, when he had that huge blowup with his girlfriend over rent, he just sat next to it for an hour, breathing, and came out fine. I even caught myself talking to the thing after my shift at the diner got crazy, and honestly? It helped more than my therapist's voicemail. Has anyone else had a weird object or plant that actually chilled out their roommate or you?
