š§ø 1. Create a Safe Space
Find a private, quiet, and comfortable place.
Use soft lighting, cozy blankets, and items that feel safe.
If you have a caregiver (CG), let them know you're regressing. (If possible! some littles may be nonverbal <3)
šØ 2. Gather Comfort Items (Optional but Helpful)
Snacks (like applesauce, juice boxes, goldfish crackers)
Toys, coloring books, or sensory items
š§ 3. Choose Comforting Activities
Watch cartoons or kidsā movies
Listen to lullabies or soft music
Nap or cuddle with a stuffed animal
Talk in a childlike voice if it helps
š«§ 4. Let Go of Adult Worries
Try to mentally "put away" responsibilities
Use affirmations like: "I am safe."
"I donāt have to worry right now."
"Itās okay to be small."
Set a timer if you have things to do later
Avoid regressing in unsafe or inappropriate environments
Practice self-care after regressing ā drink water, reflect gently, and ease back into your usual mindset
Optional: Journaling or Memory Triggers
Some find it helpful to keep a regression journal or make a playlist of comforting songs, shows, or smells that help trigger the regressed mindset.
Please keep an eye on yourself; keep safe when regressing.
Remind yourself: āItās okay to need comfort.ā Thereās no shame in wanting to feel little or cared for.
You donāt have to āact like a childā ā regression is about your internal experience, not outward behavior.
Everyone's regression looks different; there is no wrong or right way to regress.
