Cartoons as Therapy: How Animated Shows Comfort Young Adults

Young adults in India are turning to cartoons for comfort and stress relief, like mental health therapy.

Streaming services like Netflix and Disney+ offer both classic and new animation.

Some shows help process difficult emotions.

Psychologists note that cartoons offer a safe and predictable escape.

It's a trend for coping with stress and anxiety.
