Make people able to register mental support animals like you can for guide dogs.
Some need support animals for metal illnesses in stressful situations.
Places where people need them, they are not allowed which is stressful for the person who needs the animals.
Since they can not wear the assistance id people come up and pet the animal which can cause stress to the person.
I suffer from depression and anxiety and have been through numerous therapy sessions which have made little different to my metal health. However after doing some research I found out that pets, dogs in particular can be a healthy treatment for depression and anxiety however where I need the dog it isn't allow I struggle on public transport and busy places and most shops/restaurants do not allow animals into their establishment which limits where I can go and what I can do.
