Having a best friend to confide in can bring a positive effect on our emotional health. An evening
out with the closest friend may be the best guarantee of a good time. In fact, our best friend can
prevent us from developing serious psychological problems such as depression and anxiety.
Best friendship evolves with time – we can’t go out and pick our best friend. We become friends
with people who share common interests – at school or through hobbies, for example.
