r/ageregression

You'll probably hate me for saying this. You'll think I'm a liar... I'm so sorry... Everything I thought was a sign of age regression was actually probably a sign of autism...

Crying fits, tantrums, clapping, flapping wings, difficulty in communicating, making strange sounds (such as aaaa, eaeaea, eeee), inability to flirt, lack of personal care, clumsiness, difficulty in holding a pen...

These look like age regression, however... it looks like there's something else underneath...

Everyone must have noticed that I have a very inconsistent way of speaking. I don't know why this is.

Please don't hate me. Believe me, I don't know what I'm doing either... I'm just talking nonsense.

I still use a pacifier. I'm very afraid of the dark. I don't like sleeping at night...

No ADOS-2 assessment was administered to me because, unfortunately, I am not aware of any experts in my area who can administer this test...

I used very strong psychiatric medications when I was 9-10 years old... Prozac and risperidone... Later, the internet archive records indicating that I used these medications were deleted... and he disappeared...

The medication called Risperidon was given to me alongside the medication called Prozac, supposedly due to my "sleep problems."

These medications were prescribed, but I was not diagnosed with a specific illness or neurodivergence...

People think I'm crazy right now... Even if I explained that I was experiencing age regression. , people mock me by calling me a "big baby", a "disabled child", a "sensitive baby", and a "paci baby"

This whole thing is ridiculous...

I'm so sorry...

Hi! Im James and I'm from Australia. I haven't met many people from Oceania here but wanted to say hi and see if anyone wanted to talk or maybe be friends?

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.”

Hi everyone, I’m a bit of a new caregiver. (not an invitation to dm me, I beg. I just need advice) My girlfriend recently confessed that she age regresses to me, which I’m totally cool with! I’ve done it before, I actually used to quite frequently. That being said, I have no experience with caregiving. Would anyone be able to guide me in the right direction? (if there’s other subreddits or such- please let me know!)
I love her so much, and I’d do anything to help her feel safe and happy. We’ve already established a code, she’ll text me a certain emoji or tap my hand three times to let me know she’s little and needs help getting out of whatever situation.
I suppose I’m just looking for what other age regressors look for in caregivers. I’m open to any and all advice if it means I can further help my sweet angel. I actually just made this account to post this as I’m desperate to be the best I can for her.

Thank you to anyone willing to help me out <3

Im 26(f) you can call me Christy. I'm looking for online friends. Im feeling a bit lonely. I age regress to a younger age im not exactly sure what age but i love pacis, stuffies, bottles. I love to watch movies and cartoons. Like bluey! I love to play Minecraft I have Java and Bedrock. I like to play Fortnight, im not that good at it but im getting better. Younger or older is fine preferably friends 20+ would be great. I prefer to talk on discord as well.

So my best friends mom has helped me out more than I could ever explain... I lived in my own home that I destroyed... I got a new apartment I mistreated and now I'm in a new place and she helped me clean it... I told her not to buf she went ahead and started cleaning... well she grabbed a box and said "is this garbage?" My kites were in there and a few pencils I liked... but my pacifier was also in there... I quickly snatched it and the markers and she looked me dead in the eyes and said "why the fuck do you have a soother?... you know what.. I dont want to know-.." I tried to say "oh I don't know I dont know" but I did not play it off well... AT ALL...

So she came over and had beer and kept cleaning.. well i hate to say it but I buy my "gear" from LFB which is sadly a kink site.. anyway.. their gear comes with panflits/catalog booklets... I went to the bathroom, came out and saw her flipping through it... I'm terrified and idk what to do...

Before she left I thanked her for helping me out and she said "you're welcome friend" and gave me a huge hug and went on her way... but she wont let it go

She is someone who is... not conservative but old fashioned if that makes sense.. she supports that I'm trans (ftm) but also is one of those people who say "trans people never existed 30 years ago" she also thinks "how do we know pictures of the earth and.planets are real?" Sorry for ranting... but idk what to do

Keep seeing toys I wanna get and play with in little space but not brave enough to just buy them myself (also can't always afford even if it's like $7 play dough) ...but I feel sad I feel like I'm telling a baby no they can't have something... But I want the baby to be happy... I want to be happy when I'm little not just sad... But I can't care for myself the way a child needs to be cared for... Kids don't have to be spoiled or need every toy in the world but... Play is hard by myself... I have crafts and that helps but I miss actually toys sometimes too not just like play dough. That was just something I saw while browsing. I like to look at Amazon sometimes to daydream about the toys I want... But it's been making me sad lately bc I know how badly I just want to have them and be in my own little world playing... Sorry semi big right now and just feeling sad about that... I feel like a brat sad about wanting a toy...

Sometimes I start acting super innocent and cheerful and like a child (I'm usually the opposite), and I do a bunch of childish things like speaking in a more high pitched voice and becoming more talkative. I don't rlly know how to explain it, but its different from a usual happy episode.

But I also can think fairly well? Like when I'm in this state of mind, if someone texts me, I can pretend to be mature and act like myself. I also don't feel completely like a baby. Could I regress into an older toddler instead? Is that valid?

I'm very confused on if I actually regress or not so if someone could help me that would be amazing :) It usually happens either after a mental breakdown or when I feel super safe and happy

I'd like some recommendations! :3
