How to comfort your sad little one! ˙◠˙

🌧 Let them let it out, let them cry, let them whine about it, let them know their feelings are okay and you care about them. be there for them, that's what's the most important. 🌧 Get their favourite stuffies and blankies, aka comfort items for them 🌧 Get their favourite snack if you have it around! 🌧 If your little one wants (always ask beforehand!) give them a cuddle 🌧 Put on their favourite TV show, or play their favourite game together! 🌧 if you can, try and give them advice, or just reassuring words and comfort 🌧 When they calm down, ask them if they want to do anything special. 🌧 Recommend a nap time, naps help a lot when sad. 🌧 Tell them a story to distract themselves 🌧 Use grounding exercises (name 5 things in the room, breathing exercises) 🌧 and last and most important. be patient and don't rush them to explain why they are sad, don't raise your voice and yell, make them feel loved.

Shoutout to regressors who don't look like babies!!

Maybe you're tall, have a deep voice, or have a mature face or figure? Or you use an assistive device that's generally viewed as an Adult Thing? (e.g. canes, crutches, hearing aids, dentures, etc.) You are awesome and cool and a baby!!

Aside from unchangeable traits, I'm also thinking about lifestyle preferences. Maybe you have defined muscles from working out? Or maybe you have adult-like tastes in consumption, and even when you're small, you still dress like a grown-up and take your coffee black? Well, guess what!! You are awesome and cool and a baby!!

Also, also, people who regress partway while doing Adult Tasks! Deep cleaning your living space while using a sippy cup is awesome. Reading college textbooks while snuggled up with a stuffie is also awesome!!

Grown-up-looking regressors I love u all

some monday words ˚ʚ♡ɞ˚

you don't have to be strong all the time.

you don't always have to be the bravest version of yourself.

you're allowed to cry, to fall over and make mistakes, to start again.

that's what being human is all about ♡ - just know i'm proud of you for exisiting, because sometimes that's all you can do to keep going ♡

Why I recommend age regression as a way to cope.

If you're stressed the F out, feel like you missed out or lost your childhood, or have terrible coping mechanisms? Then this is the post for you. (Maybe.)

Also before we jump in—Just wanna say that I'm not a psychologist, I'm just sharing tips and advice from my own positive and negative experiences. And that age regression may not work for you after you've tried it, but I say give it a shot! Especially if your current ways of dealing with life aren't.... great.

With all that our of the way—Post beneath cut!

So here's some resources for a TLDR version! But I'll be explaining age-regression, it's benefits to me, and why I encourage others to try!

Remember it is ALWAYS sfw! (Which means agere isn't a kink, never has been and never will be!)

So age-regression, or it's shortened name Agere (Takes Age, and the Re from Regression and combines them!) Is a form of dissociation in which someone mentally reverts back to a younger age! This can be anywhere from a few years younger, such as a 17 year old regressing to a 15 year old. Or it can be many years younger—Example being a 17 year old regressing to a 4 year old!

During this state: they are mentally younger, either fully or partially depending on the person. And do think like said age. And often their behaviors correspond with their regressed age, assuming they aren't masking it!

Sometimes you are aware you're regressed, and other times you're not—Both are completely fine!

It's a wonderful way to relive your childhood in a safe environment, feel young and cared for again like a child, or express your inner child!

Okay, but why would I use that to cope?

Don't worry, I hear your questions!

The reason it's a good coping mechanism, for me atleast, is regressing allows you to process your emotions at your own pace. Though they might still be overwhelming, I find it much easier to let my big emotions calm down when I feel small, because it's like they slowly burn off rather than going boom!

If you're stressed a lot, it's a good way to temporarily remove yourself from your burdens! Like you don't have any worries other than 'should I use the pink or blue crayon?' Vibes! Pressure slowly bleeding off rather than having an outburst.

And, for fun! It can be fun to connect with your inner child, do the things you liked as a kid and reunited with that mindset! You don't need to have missed out on your childhood to regress, it can be completely for fun!

Now now, age regression isn't always all fun and games. Because you do think like whatever age you've regressed to, you might have temper tantrums or get cranky or confused if something triggers it.

That's okay.

Yeah, it can feel icky—But me personally, i much prefer these occasionally than letting my emotions boil over and having a breakdown when I'm not regressed!

I've lost and wasted a lot of my childhood. This is my way of healing and re-experiencing childhood joy. Please, don't ever forget that type of wonder, it's so magical and so nice and cozy.

It's a way to cope because it can be an outlet, a comfort, a way to regulate emotions, a way to escape, a way to just relax. And, while not everyone turns out liking it, that's okay! But it works for me, and so so many others. I've had atleast 6 or so friends start regressing and they're still doing it to this day!

And the best part is it's temporary, so if there's more mature things you enjoy? You don't have to give those up, okay? You can find time to regress and relax, and come back to your normal routine later!

It's benefits can be:

Destressing.

Processing lots of emotions at once.

Enjoyment.

Getting to do things you were denied as a child.

Able to let out emotions via tantrums or fits in a much less destructive headspace.

Reliving a simpler mindset.

Helping with sleeping. (I find it much easier to nap/go to bed if I'm regressed!)

Getting a fresh feeling after you're done regressing.

Stimulating if understimulated.

Can help if you're also overstimulated.

Healing inner child.

Coping with trauma/stress in a healthy way.

Help with doing chores. (It's way easier to make chores fun if you're regressed in my experience, but some hate doing chores while regressed and that's cool too!)

And it can be different for each person!

It is absolutely okay to have a different experience, struggle regressing at first or even always, or not do it often!

I recommend if you want to start regressing—Find something that makes your inner child happy, indulge in the best things you liked or would've liked as the age you wanna regress to, find ways to incorporate your current interests into it!

Also things that you like, or positive things can help too!

It's honestly my best coping mechanism, it isn't 'weird' or 'wrong' especially if it helps you. And I can guarantee it's far better than plenty of unhealthy coping mechanisms!

Sooo... yeah! If you want, I recommend looking more into it! There's a whole community for you here on Tumblr, and other sites!

And this post mainly only covers the positives, but it's what I wanted to focus on!

Byee!! (Pssstt BTW agere doesn't have to be all pastels and cute and stuff!! Do what makes you happy! Use whatever colours and vibes you want!)

I'm unsure if there has been a post made about this already.

VrChat trollers have recently found out about our community and had started posting videos about trolling our spaces on the game!

This might lead to a massive influx of trolls and worse into your groups and group worlds. Please take extra caution and care during this time!

🌤 Things to do when regressed alone 🍼

Lots of teenies tend to underestimate how much one can do when you are small alone.

The world is your oyster when you put your little kiddo mind into it ☆

🫧 If you can , go outside and collect neat looking rocks / sticks and leaves ! You can pretend to go on an adventure with your pretend stick and think of anything you want it to be. You can also have a scrap book and glue your leaves in it ! And maybe start an interesting rock collection ! + bonus if you have googly eyes to stick on them.

🌱 If you like bugs , you can buy bug catchers locally and safely catch them ! Examine them for your little curiosity and carefully let them go / fly free where you found them.

⭐️ You can finger or hand paint on a piece of construction paper and go crazy with it ! You can do any cute drawing or spat / scribble colors on it till your heart's content ♡

🫧 Write and draw about your comfort characters with your agere headcanons ! Would they be a regressor , cg or flip ? How would they act in the situation of being a regressor / cg / flip ? What type of regressor / cg / flip would they be ? What would it look like ? How did they discover it ?

🌱 Construct your own agere yt playlist ! It doesn't necessarily only have to contain cartoons / agere themed videos , but it can be any video that makes you feel teeny , safe , and comforted.

⭐️ Take a nice , warm bubble bath with toys to play with as well ! There are plenty of underrated supplies at a near dollar tree , that's how I got my sesame street & bluey shampoo ! Don't forget to splash and giggle carelessly ☆

🫧 If able to , look up at the stars at night. Take a flashlight and look for constellations. See the world for how it is at night compared to day.

Dealing with guilt and shame around age regression

I've been dealing with some guilt towards my regression the past couple days. I have been feeling self conscious and embarrassed about my regression and it's been making it harder to relax and let myself get into little space. I took some time this afternoon to brain storm a few things I can do and I wanted to share!!

🐸 Write it out! I have a "worry" journal. I set a 15 minute timer for myself and just let myself write whatever has been bothering me. After the 15 minutes is over I close the journal and throw it across my room.

🐌 You could also write a letter to someone talking about your feelings. This doesn't mean you have to give them that letter!! Sometimes it is soothing to write to someone who hurt you and then rip it up into tiny little pieces afterwards. Another option is to write a letter to your CG about how much you appreciate them and their support :)

🐸 Positive affirmations! I keep a sticky note on my chore chart of a few affirmations I can say to myself when I am worked up.

🐌 Meditation/Mindfulness. You can do ones that are made for kids if it helps! There are also kids toys that are geared at helping little ones slow down and take some deep breaths. My Furby has a relax mode where he guides me to do some breathing. It is both silly and relaxing enough to distract my brain for a little bit.

🐸 Ask your CG to write you a letter you can read when you are dealing with tough emotions. If you have a fictional CG you can write yourself a note pretending to be them! There are also people out there who will write you letters from your CG. Even if you don't have a CG, you can write a letter to yourself. When you are feeling big, write a letter of all the kind things you wish you could say to little you.

🐌 Age regression can be part of a healthy coping toolbox. You are not doing anything wrong by regressing. It is okay to regress. It is okay to take time for you. It is okay to do something that is just for your own happiness.

🐸 You are allowed to take up space. You are allowed to be messy and noisy and playful. You deserve love and care. You deserve to have your needs met. I'm sorry others in your life let you down and made you feel this way. But it will be okay, and we can heal together, I promi.

🐌 Remember; it is okay to take a break from voluntary regression for any reason. Your stuffies and dollies will understand and they will be there for you when you return. ♥️

Feel free to add your own!

If you are continually dealing with feelings of guilt and shame, don't be afraid to reach out to someone. It can hard to unlearn these sorts of things on your own. You aren't weak for needing extra support.
