I’m worried
I’ve recently realised that I age regress a lot more than I thought, it happens whenever I’m super happy about something or when something reminds me of a childhood I wish I had - my partner recently made Rice Krispie cakes and gave me a chocolate covered spoon to lick, I age regressed and didn’t realise it until a few moments after. I’m aware that I do hav regression but it happens more than I thought and I don’t have control over it. I had a traumatic childhood, I’m aware of that. I’m 25…and I don’t know how to explain that I have moments of age regression that I can’t control without sounding like a freak. It never happens during intimate times, but I know I have moments where I regress…I’m not sure what I’m looking for in this post..maybe someone to tell me I’m not a complete weirdo? Or that I’m not the only person that has this. I’m capable of making adult choices and being serious…but sometimes (as I like to refer to this side of me) my inner child comes out and sometimes it just happens. I don’t want my partner to see me as “childish.”
