((((Draggers)))) I’m not sure there’s anything I can say to help, but I can listen and empathize. I feel safest with animals as well. I’m looking at my two cats curled up on my bed right now.
I don’t know how possible it is to feel completely safe with other people. Even with the person I trust most in my life and who I know is safe, my mind will occasionally turn him into a scary person and I’ll be afraid to be alone with him. But jsut because I don't feel safe, doesn't mean the other person isn't safe. It’s sort-of stupid, but one thing that has helped is that whenever I start to think that nobody in the world is safe, I tell myself that I am a safe person. So there’s at least one safe person in the world, and if there’s one, there’s bound to be others.

Clearly cats are the best My two cats are brothers, and they are so cute together. They pretty much spend their whole day sleeping curled up in a ball together. Although, I'm not going to lie- if I could have a monkey as a pet, I totally would.
I can relate to that. There is a cat in the house where I live, and it is such a relief to be able to spend time with him. I almost breathe more easily, because... he's there, and playing and it's okay, I don't have to be good enough or he will hate me. Just food and toys. It's safe, don't have to be scared. I'm very glad he is in my life.
Cats make the world seem easier.

well, she's a dear and so are you i hope someday it will feel safe with other people. until then, though, there's absolutely nothing wrong with hanging with your furry friends who you know are safe. big, safe hugs
My furry friend is a dog, but I'm thinking about adopting a cat.
Nannbee, I've always wanted a monkey too.
