I have a question for ***only*** people living in long term (one year or more) solo isolation ***without physical contact with humans or animals.***
How are you hanging in there? And specifically what helps you with the lack of physical touch?
Don't want replies from people not in solo iso, don't want conjecture, just the question as framed, thanks.

@pastelexuvia @LonelinessCorps I'm so happy you have something that works for you.
Do you have a favourite? Do they get names?
I have a body pillow (named Monsieur Saucisse) which has truly been lifesaving.

@ShaulaEvans @LonelinessCorps nice. yea, i have two that i cuddle every night, a purple owl by generation mindful (it has color-coded emotion plushies in a pocket in its back), and a borders × gund rabbit sitting on its haunches from back when borders existed
i have a massive lisa-frank-esque unicorn that takes up half a bed. i think its made by the same company that makes squishmallows
