Slime isn’t just a fun, squishy pastime—it’s a game-changer for mental well-being. At fireflyslime, we’re proud to create products that not only delight but also provide a calming refuge for people dealing with stress and anxiety. Two of our incredible customers, Megan (@meguchandesu) and Hannah (@hannahbannahbonana), have shared their personal journeys of finding solace in slime. Here are their inspiring stories.
Megan’s Story: A Simple Joy for Complex Times
Megan, known as @meguchandesu on Instagram, describes herself as “just a normal girl living my life.” Megan discovered fireflyslime through TikTok creator Evie Meg, who shared her love for our products.
"I’ve known about slime for a while but particularly took an interest in it when a content creator I follow on TikTok, Evie Meg, posted videos about Firefly Slime," Megan says.
She started with our Calming Clay, a butter/clay hybrid slime that’s smooth, spreadable, and soothing. Megan quickly found it to be more than just a playful distraction—it became a tool for managing her emotions.
"I have anxiety and am generally an emotionally sensitive person. Whenever I’m feeling anxious or starting to feel blue, playing with the slime helps my brain to refocus so I can start feeling better," she explains.
As Megan eagerly awaits her next purchase—a mystery slime—we’re thrilled to see how fireflyslime continues to bring her joy and relief.
Hannah’s Story: Turning Anxiety into Calm
Hannah (@hannahbannahbonana) rediscovered her love for slime in an unexpected way. Years ago, she made her own slime but eventually moved on to other interests. This year, as her anxiety reached new heights, her therapist suggested she give slime another try.
"Using slime just changes something," Hannah shares. "It almost clicks the switch of anxiety off!"
Inspired by Evie Meg’s glowing review, Hannah decided to try fireflyslime—and she hasn’t looked back.
"My favorite texture is butter/clay. It’s so soft, and the scents are so amazing," she says. For Hannah, slime has been especially helpful during stressful moments at school, offering her an easy and portable way to manage her anxiety.
Why Slime Works
Stories like Megan’s and Hannah’s underscore why slime is so much more than a toy. Its textures and scents stimulate multiple senses, helping to ground the mind and shift focus away from stress. Whether you’re spreading butter slime, popping clear slime bubbles, or crunching through a crunchy slime, the tactile experience can be profoundly therapeutic.
At fireflyslime, our mission is to spread the joy of slime, and these customer stories fuel our passion. Thank you, Megan and Hannah, for sharing how slime has impacted your lives. We’re honored to be a part of your journey toward calm and happiness.
