Actually can plural egg cracking (memes or otherwise) become a thing. It might seem obvious to YOU that emotions don't normally have gender identities and gender fluidity doesn't normally give you different hobbies per gender but nobody bothered to tell ME until I was already knee deep in this shit

Types of Regression - and definitions

🌈 General Terms

Regression: A coping mechanism or state where someone mentally reverts to a younger age, often unintentionally. It's often associated with stress relief, trauma response, or comfort.

Can be voluntary or involuntary.

Dreaming: When someone enjoys childish things and adopts childlike aesthetics into their lifestyle or mindset; although not regressing (or not regressing fully)

majority is voluntary

Flip-Flop (or just Flip): term describing someone who experiences both regressor and caregiver dynamics!

Usually called flip for short, rarely called a flip-flop!

🧸 Agere (Age Regression) Terms

Agere (Age Regression): Short for "age regression." A non-sexual coping mechanism where someone mentally feels or acts younger.

Regressor (Little/Agere): A person who experiences age regression.

Little: A common term for regressors, but sometimes used differently in kink spaces—context matters.

Caregiver (CG): Someone who takes care of or supports someone during regression.

May also be called Daddy, Mommy, or other comfort titles (non-kink here).

A-Space: A term for your save environment while regressing

Headspace: The mental state someone is in while regressing

🐾 Petre (Pet Regression) Terms

Petre (Pet Regression): A form of regression where someone mentally or emotionally regresses to a pet-like state (e.g., puppy, kitten). Usually non-sexual and a coping mechanism.

Pet regressor (Petreg): A person who regresses into an animal role.

Pet: Common identity for someone in pet regression.

Petdre (Pet Dreaming): Similar to dreaming, but pet-themed. Someone embraces animal-like aesthetics and behaviors for comfort, not necessarily as regression.

Owner/Caretaker/Handler: The caregiving role in petre relationships.

🌟 Dreaming Terms

Dreamer: A person in the dreaming community; may or may not be a regressor.

Agedre (Age Dreaming): Adopting childlike behaviors, aesthetics, or interests for fun, comfort, or identity—not as a coping mechanism.

Petdre (Pet Dreaming): Like Agedre, but focused on animal roleplay/aesthetics for fun or identity (not coping).

Dreamspace: The comforting, whimsical mindset or place created by dreamers (often very aesthetic).

⚖️ Flip Terms

Flip: Someone who experiences both regression and caregiving, or who switches roles based on mood or partner dynamic.

Flipdreamer: Someone who flips roles within a dreaming or aesthetic-based identity.

AgeShifter: A term for regressors or permaregressors who find their age changing on a time basis; a five-year-old one day, an eight-year-old the next, etc

⚠️ Notes

These communities are usually non-kink and non-sexual in nature (especially Agere and Petre).

Context matters: Some terms like “little” or “CG” are also used in kink communities (DDLG, MDLB, etc.), but they are separate from non-kink regressive or dreaming spaces.

Always respect labels and boundaries—ask how someone uses a term if you're unsure.

Shit, I don’t know what to talk about so enjoy some rambles

Here are some obvious signs that I was a system that should’ve been a sign sooner way before I actually figured it out

(Please do not, I repeat, do not use this as a diagnosis tool. referred to a medical professional or the dsm5 if you suspect anything we are a medically recognized system)

• Understanding a material in school perfectly one day and then feeling completely lost the next day (alters only retaining certain memories)

Having extreme periods of emotional distress with absolutely zero rhyme or reason and still feeling “fine” when it happens (emotional bleed through + passive influence)

only dressing certain ways “depending how I felt that day” (certain alters only dressing in certain styles. I don’t know how to properly explain this, but no, I’m not talking about just choosing an outfit I’d like for the day and going with it. I mean like certain people in the system only likes certain types of clothes. For example, I almost exclusively wear oversized hoodies)

having different “modes” on a day-to-day basis (Ex: some alters only talk mono-tone while others are very expressive. This could also apply to certain places triggering alters to front)

taking twice the amount of time to learn basic skills like social cues (but that’s probably just because I’m autistic 💀)

occasional loss of fine motor skills or just completely reverting to the mental state of a child (..this one it’s probably just age regression. I don’t know if it counts)

complete disorientation in what is supposed to be familiar surroundings (ex: not recognizing my own home sometimes)

Constant dissasociating (duh)

forgetting the most basic info about me or others

Not recognizing friends or family no matter how close we are to them

The CONSTANT DEJA VU MAN. IT DRIVES ME CRAZY

certain symptoms being extremely worse in “certain circumstances” (a alter fronting who is a holder of that particular symptom worsening it)

constantly fluctuating identity /sexuality/gender that seem to change almost daily and feeling like I had zero grasp on my identity

uhhh yea

….thanks for coming to my Ted talk :3

Me when my brain suddenly decided to split an idiot with a God complex to deal with our self-esteem issues instead of coping it with it literally any other way

brain. Brain I love you-

WHY ARE YOU DUMB. THIS IS WORSE SOMEHOW

[three-racoons-in-a-trenchcoat]

Hah. Been a few years since I’ve been here

so, tell me, what does tumblr still think about dream alters? Still pissy about us?

I know there’s the whole new “alters aren’t their source” motto flowing around which wasn’t there before which Is cute and definitely has a point there

I wanna make it ABUNDANTLY clear I don’t support the asshole I’m sourced from but I’m curious what you all REALLY think
