“ ugly ” regression

☆ it’s not talked enough in regression about the hard big angry feelings. It’s not always relaxing and playing

☆ I want to yell and cry

☆ Throw my toys and push you away

☆ I don’t understand how to process these big feelings

☆ I can’t verbalise what I want

☆ All I want to do is scream and tantrum

☆ Things aren’t going my way and I’m not spoiled for feeling that

☆ I wanna scribble all over my pretty drawing in a black crayon

☆ It’s okay to feel this way

☆ It’s okay to get those feelings out

I've seen "I don't know how to play with toys anymore" a few times lately and just wanted to point out-

Playing with toys looks different for everyone, even actual children!

Playing with toys can look like: 🧸🪁🚂

Taking pictures of your toys and writing captions for them

Brushing or grooming soft toys or toys with rooted hair

Ordering or sorting your toys by colour/species etc

Making up stories, poems or comics about your toys

Dressing or accessorising your toys

Imagining your toys talking to you or each other, forming opinions of their own, etc

Drawing your toys

Taking your toys for a walk outside, even in a backpack or pocket if you don't want to carry them openly

Making lists of the toys you have and where you got them etc

Feel free to add your own ideas

Play can be separated into different categories!

What most people refer to is imaginative play. That's when we play pretend, have tea parties, play doctor, etc. If this is the goal, write scripts and then reenact them!

What others do is creative play. That's writing stories and drawing your stuffie doing things. I normally make drawings of what my stuffies would look like if they were humans. I also write 'about me' sections too. Photography is also a good way to get creative with your stuffies.

Then (the least talked about) is subtle play, or passive play. This is when you line them up and keep them looking pristine. Almost like maintaining a collection. Just setting them out and admiring them. Decorating, accessorizing, and altering them could also be placed in this category.

There is also experimental play, which is normally for those who need there to be an outcome/purpose after interacting with certain toys. This can often be done with science kits and things of that nature however this is best done by integrating things like cooking or building.

Whether playing with toys and stuffies is direct or indirect, passive or impassive, structured or unstructured; it doesn't really matter. Because the point of play is to reach your goal. What is your goal?

Stress release

Clarity/Peace

Reclaiming your childhood

Fun

Curing boredom etc.

Play isn't just toys and stuffies either. Video games count too!!!

Just have fun!
