but also it’s okay to be angry. it’s okay to want to scream or cry out of frustration. its okay to feel jealous. it’s okay to feel annoyed. it’s okay to feel overwhelmed or frazzled.

as long as you’re not hurting yourself or anyone else you are just fine. the emotions will pass.

try to work out a safe plan of what to do when feeling particularly bad. it’s good to have things easily accessible because brain no work when upset or overwhelmed.

*NSFW, @GEPLAY, K!NK + VARIANTS DNI.*

-> When you’re not regressed, identify triggers that cause you to have these emotional outbursts. What is it feeling like physically? What typically happens before these feelings overflow? Are you able to identify what emotion is prompting these episode? (Anger, fear, sadness, etc)

-> Create a “regulation kit” for yourself full of items that help calm you. If you have comfort items like a paci, a stuffie, a nice blanket, a fidget toy—these are all very helpful options. Other things can include comforting notes from a caregiver or your big self, soothing scents and textures, snacks you know and enjoy.

-> Try and take a pause to feel your body. This can help identify what emotion is weighing on you the most. Clenched teeth or fists? Maybe you’re angry. Your tummy hurts? Possible anxiety. Lump in your throat, tears? Could be sadness. Or sometimes, it may be more than one thing.

-> Once you identify the emotion, say it out loud. Ex: “I feel yucky in my tummy. I’m nervous.” From there, use a coping strategy for that emotion. So, say you identify anger. Ex: “I’m angry. I’m going to scribble really hard with my crayons this paper.”

-> Another helpful tool can be acting it out through stuffies, action figures, toys, or even a caregiver. Pretend they’re the one experiencing the feeling. “Teddy bear feels sad. Teddy bear wants a hug. What would I tell my Teddy bear?” It can help process those feelings, and give yourself empathy as well.

-> If you have a caregiver, ask them for help in advance! Try creating an emotion chart that they can help identify with you. Ex: “Let’s look at all these faces from the chart. Can you point to what you’re feeling?” Additionally, ask them to use simplified language so it’s easier for you to understand and work with. Like, “is your tummy feeling yucky and fluttery?” rather than “are you having an anxiety attack?”

*What works for one little one may not work for the next, but you deserve to work through tough moments and get through them. Regulation is hard when you feel so small, but it is possible and you’re worthy of it.

Cozy fall mornings
