Snuggle refers to the act of cuddling or embracing closely, often for the purpose of providing comfort, security, and warmth. It is a common behavior observed in humans and many animal species.

Causes[edit]

Snuggling is primarily caused by the desire for physical contact and emotional bonding. It is often initiated in response to feelings of cold, loneliness, or the need for reassurance.

Symptoms[edit]

The primary symptoms of snuggling include feelings of comfort, security, and warmth. It may also lead to the release of oxytocin, a hormone associated with bonding and stress reduction.

Treatment[edit]

While snuggling itself is not a condition that requires treatment, it can be considered a form of therapy for those seeking emotional support. Common forms of snuggling include cuddling with a partner, hugging a friend, or even holding a pet.

Prognosis[edit]

The prognosis for snuggling is excellent, as it is a natural and beneficial behavior that promotes emotional well-being.
