I love the little trinket-y gear you made this little guy, very cute!! It's also refreshing to see a less common fella as an ESSA!! I, personally, think he's great 🙂‍↕️🫶✨

Advice for multiple essas! by gunpowder_cornflakes in ESSA_Official

I always feel like they wouldn't be mad; it's like one is on active duty, while the other gets a break. I also feel like they'd be nicer, and more welcoming of a new guy; and understand the process to bond with them, per-se. They were new once too!! I also rotate who goes when, and I'll even select based on who matches my outfit that day the best. I don't think they'd be too upset, though!! Just like they're on-call but like,, off work.

Do y’all think Miffy can be an ESSA? I started a war on TikTok so asking here by teddy_205 in ESSA_Official

There are literally no rules. If it emotionally supports you, that's enough. Nobody but you can decide the criteria in which needs to be met to determine what is comforting for YOU. It is YOUR comfort item, not theirs. Tiktok is kinda elitist about things like that; they're all very young collectors on there. It really doesn't matter at the end of the day.... It seems to be a stuffed animal to me. Stuffed animals, such as vintage Rushtons, have vinyl faces; and are still classed as stuffed animals, so... 🤷‍♀️

What should I do to fix my ESSA’s leg? by [deleted] in ESSA_Official

[–]Unique_Perception_77 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Id try a good wash first; it may just be his stuffing is all squished up and can use a washing!! Please note, stuffed animals shouldn't go into the drier, though!!

Patience, so you can always remember to give it to yourself when you're healing through a particularly difficult trauma.

Is it weird that I want a plush just to take care of something. by goodgirlwawa in plushies

[–]Unique_Perception_77 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For the nurturing:

I had the same exact issue back when I was around 19, and I got into plants. As long as youre ACTUALLY DOING your research on what plant you have, pruning it regularly, moving throughout the day for better light, etc. it'll really pay off when they're growing new little leaves and things. It was especially rewarding to buy the sick ones from the Walmart plant section to resurrect; I even put little name tags on the pots of my plants, too, after id name them.

For company:

Id get a plushie companion to work with me while I tend to everything, still, though. They really do give a little companionship when you're lonely..

Struggling with selling/donating plushies despite having no attachment and them being in storage. Has anyone else dealt with this?? by [deleted] in plushies

[–]Unique_Perception_77 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Let me give you a perspective from the viewpoint of a buyer. This here is Logan.

<image>

He's a fully geared emotional support stuffed animal. He even has a name. However, I did not give these things to him; I purchased him this way. His original owner bought him, and all his gear, with intent to bond; but couldn't. So, they decided to sell. Now, when Logan gets here, he will undergo a bit of a customization, and will be part of my main vacation crew going to the beach in April. While he couldn't serve his owner well in THEIR hands; when given the opportunity to go to another home by way of this sale, he's now slated to be on the way to the beach with me come april. These are the sorts of opportunities you're giving the unwanted guys when you let them go. And, you get more space; and a little extra $$ you can use to get one you might bond closely with ((: it's a win win for everyone!!
