🧸 1. Create a Safe Space

Find a private, quiet, and comfortable place.

Use soft lighting, cozy blankets, and items that feel safe.

If you have a caregiver (CG), let them know you're regressing. (If possible! some littles may be nonverbal <3)

🎨 2. Gather Comfort Items (Optional but Helpful)

Stuffies/plushies

Blankets or pacifiers

Sippy cups or bottles

Snacks (like applesauce, juice boxes, goldfish crackers)

Toys, coloring books, or sensory items

🎧 3. Choose Comforting Activities

Watch cartoons or kids’ movies

Color or play with toys

Listen to lullabies or soft music

Nap or cuddle with a stuffed animal

Use kids' apps or games

Talk in a childlike voice if it helps

🫧 4. Let Go of Adult Worries

Try to mentally "put away" responsibilities

Use affirmations like: "I am safe." "I don’t have to worry right now." "It’s okay to be small."

🛑 5. Set Limits

Set a timer if you have things to do later

Avoid regressing in unsafe or inappropriate environments

Practice self-care after regressing — drink water, reflect gently, and ease back into your usual mindset

Optional: Journaling or Memory Triggers

Some find it helpful to keep a regression journal or make a playlist of comforting songs, shows, or smells that help trigger the regressed mindset.

⚠️ Important Notes

Please keep an eye on yourself; keep safe when regressing.

Remind yourself: “It’s okay to need comfort.” There’s no shame in wanting to feel little or cared for.

You don’t have to “act like a child” — regression is about your internal experience, not outward behavior.

- uses kids products to help motivate showers, brushing teeth and brushing hair

- cocoons themself in plushies and blankets, staying in bed all day and barely sleeping at night

- uses kids dishes and nastolgic meals when struggling with low appetite

- uses a sticker chart and reward system to try and feel excited and productive about chores

- cling to fictional cgs from comfort shows

- use diaps when they are too tired to get up to potty

- whine for a cg they don't have

- struggle to remember to eat, shower, change clothes, brush their hair or teeth or take medicine

- struggle to get excited about their interests

- lack the energy and/or time to regress

- struggle with nightmares and use their stuffies to comfort then

- only have the energy to be a completely dependent baby and nothing more

- who are both too scared to ask to be cared for, but also too uncomfortable to regress alone

- who feel a ton of shame, anxiety or guilt during and/or after regressing

- who can only age dream due to intrusive thoughts or anxiety

- who rely on regression completely for getting out of bed in the morning and falling asleep at night

been so depressed recently so I thought I'd share this. I truly could go on and on about how my regression is integral to my depression. I hope some of you can feel seen from this !
