Bed time, little one

╔═ . ☾ . ══════════════════ Hi here little one! my my, don't you look sleepy? heavy eyes and foggy thoughts, yes i think it's time for bed.

I know sometimes it dosent sound so fun, we wanna stay up all night playing games and watching our faveriout movies, but playing isn't so fun when your head feels all heavy, and movies aren't as good when our eyes don't want to stay open.

Lets get comfy, shall we?

Into our sleep clothes we go, the day time is over and the sun has gone to bed. Under our blankets we get, lullabies and nightlights, a hand carding through your hair while your teddy bear finds their way under your arm.

There's no need to worry. There's no need to stay up. I know that whatever you did today you did the best you could and that is all that counts my dear, i couldn't be prouder. Whatever you didn't get done today we can put to bed too, because night time is no time to be worrying about all we didn't do, we need rest for tomorrow after all and if the moon is up, we shouldn't keep it waiting, should we?

Shut your eyes, my love. Let the moon sing you to sleep, it's long past your bedtime, goodnight little star. ╚═════════════════════

good parent letter

this is a therapy skill i’ve learned and i think might be helpful to others to share here! so, here goes!

the idea is, we all have to parent our inner child, and developing that voice to be healthy and loving is a skill. you can benefit from this regardless of how your actual parents were growing up! the child modes are: happy, sad, angry, and impulsive, and they all need different things.

a happy child 😄 needs support (ie: that’s so cool you like to work on your legos, tell me more!)

a sad child 😥 needs reassurance (ie: it’s okay sweetie, i know it’s really hard, but you’re safe right now)

an angry child 😡 needs validation (ie: of course you’re upset, buddy, i would be too if someone pushed me)

an impulsive child 🤪 needs healthy limits (ie: sorry kiddo, i know you want to keep watching bluey, but you have to be up early tomorrow so it’s bedtime)

keep these things in mind with how you talk to yourself, you can even practice by writing them down in a letter. find what works for you and always be gentle with yourself and remember your healing journey won’t look like anyone else’s 💕

Activity ideas for low energy regressors!!

I see a lot of these - but often find them hard to relate to because the suggestions require way more energy than I have! So I’ve made a list of some of my favourite things to do incase anyone else is in the same boat!

to other closeted regressors:

one day we’ll be able to walk outside our rooms with our pacis, blankies, or even a cute little tail.

we’ll be able to have all the plastic plates, special bowls, or sippy cups / bottles we want in the cupboards.

we’ll be able to wear whatever we want, watch as much cartoons, and have coloring things all over the living room.

theres nothing wrong with regression and we’ll all be able to expressive ourselves freely sooner or later so please keep going!! :3

I’m kind of a sucker for bottle-feeding in agere scenarios. there’s something very intimate and innocent about being fed a warm bottle, a caregiver’s hand helping hold it in place, the warmth of the milk making them more sleepy with every sip, then maybe being burped and tucked into sleep very, very gently
