It might be a character that reminds you of someone in real life, or it can be someone you feel like you relate to and want to be friends with, or even a character that reminds you of yourself.
Comfort animes, by my own definition, are animes that makes you feel good when you watch it (much like drugs and women in a perspective of an addict and a pervert).
Comfort characters aren't meant to be a replacement for actual therapy or addressing mental issues, even if they feel like they might help you in the short term. In the long run, comfort characters are simply a part of enjoying a show and finding pleasure in media and fiction.
