Valentine's library

[valentines-safe-space]

Welcome to my library little one!!

My name is Valentine (She/It/Plush please!) and I am a system caregiver!

The ask box is always open for you. (Anon will stay on unless it is used for hate) Whether you just want to talk or if theres some big feelings you want to get off your chest I'm here for you <3

Please take a look at both this post and the Extra Notes post before following:

https://www.tumblr.com/valentines-safe-space/804334712799854592/some-extra-notes?source=share

DNI:

Any anti-agere (or anti-agedre/petre/petdre) related hate will Not be tolerated

Absolutely no anti-lgbtq+ related hate

No stereotyping disorders here

We are a traumaendo system so if this bothers you please don't interact, sorry little one

Do not bring anything sexual onto this blog. Age regression is a coping mechanism, and in no way sexual. Along with that, I am asexual and sex-repulsed

Otherwise, just be kind to me and your fellow little ones and you're a-ok <3

shoutout to "annoying" (not actually) littles btw:

- littles who talk a lot: chatty littles, you guys are so fun! i hope you get to a point where everyone in your life wants to hear everything you have to say :)

- littles who vocal stim/babble: i hope can you babble as much as you want, you're allowed to take up space!

- nonverbal littles: you aren't causing problems by being nonverbal, you arent a burden or "too much work"

- littles who have a hard time communicating their needs: you deserve to be heard, even if it takes you a while to say it <3

- littles who throw tantrums: big feelings are hard, and being little doesn't have to always be pretty and fun. its okay to feel big feelings!

- picky eaters: im proud of you for eating, and its okay to not always want to try new things! any food is better than no food, always 💙

- permaregressors: you are not a burden or a hassle just because you're little

- traumatized regressors: i know big feelings can get really scary and upsetting, and i promise its okay to feel them.

you're a good kid, bubs. dont let anyone tell you otherwise 💙

Some positivity for all the sweet regressors out there <3

You are loved and loveable

The best thing you can be is yourself

You deserve to have good things in life

You don’t always have to be happy; it’s ok to feel negative

Thoughts aren’t actions; you aren’t defined by things you can’t control

It’s ok to take things slower than others

Wanting attention or affection isn’t a bad thing

Having big feelings and thoughts are ok

(inversely) Not feeling things very much doesn’t make you a bad person

I’m proud of you, regardless of what you have or haven’t done

You’re allowed to make mistakes: nobody is perfect and nobody should be perfect

It can be really hard being little and not knowing how to navigate this big and strange world—believe me, I’ve been there, and I still feel that way sometimes. But if you take things one small step at a time, and you listen to the people who truly love and care about you, and you especially take care of yourself, things will eventually get better. There will be bumps, and it won’t be all good forever, but I hope someday you end up happy and healthy and safe. I love you all <3

Chronically Ill Caregiver Mood/Stimboard

I know I can’t always be there, and I know I must worry you sometimes. But I promise taking care of you is one of the highlights of my day. You’re a good kid. Thank you for your kindness and patience. I hope we can still have fun together, regardless of what happens.

⭐️ Good days and Bad days will always look different, but regardless they’ll do their best to keep things cozy and fun.

⭐️ Bring them their cane when it’s too far away.

⭐️ Going to the doctors office together, you get to sit in the waiting room playing with toys, while they go back for their check up.

⭐️ On good days, they’ll take you to the movies. Something fun for the both of you, but low energy enough to not risk a flare up. We can bring our blankets and plushies, and even sneak in some snacks, shhhh-

⭐️ However, when they’re not feeling good, and they can’t do much. You’re always welcome to spend time in their room: We can color, watch a movie, listen to an audiobook, or have naptime. Just keep things low energy for their sake.

⭐️ Letting you decorate their pill organizer and cane. They got stickers and you have your creativity.

⭐️ Reminding them to make their medicine and fill their water bottle, and then asking you to do the same.

⭐️ Helping them in the kitchen, cooking comfort foods, and eating together to make sure we’ve both eaten. Even if it’s something simple.

⭐️ Helping them restock their bedside cart with essentials, and getting a snack of your choice in return. And maybe a gold star.

⭐️ Setting up a cozy chair next to their bed for you. So they can read to you, watching shows with you, and just hold your hand and listen to you talk about anything.

⭐️ But on very bad days, when you can’t visit, you make get well soon cards and drawing. Bringing them over when you can. And seeing their face light up knowing they were being thought of.

⭐️ Having window time, just cracking the window for fresh air and listening to nature together. A small moment, but a very important one.

⭐️ Holding their hand wherever you go to keep them steady in your own way.

⭐️ Walking slower than normal to make things easier for them. It just means you get to spend more time together.

⭐️ On bad days, just laying around and watching the celling projector together. Maybe some music in the background.

⭐️ Though after too much inside time, they take you on a little adventure, maybe the mall, the grocery store, or just anywhere to feel less isolated. Even for a few minutes.

⭐️ But the most important thing, get well soon hugs. With your cozy hugs, just maybe it’ll make things a little easier.

“You made this for me? Oh my goodness, I- I don’t know what to say. Thank you, thank you so much.”

“I’ll be okay, you go play, I’ll be here if you need me.”

“Remember to drink your water okay? Do you need any snacks?”

“It’s just a check up, I’ll be out soon.”

“Thank you for being here bubba, i really appreciate it.”

Everyone has big feelings, and sometimes we might push them aside because we deem other tasks more important.

But then it just sits there, and every time you push it away, it grows, and grows until it’s so big that you can’t even remember when it came from.

Then- anything can set it off, leaving you overwhelmed by emotions that you can’t control. But it’s okay.

Sometimes we can’t handle things in the moment, but it’s important that we find outlets for our feelings.

Cry, rip paper, throw pillows, squeeze your plushies, run, journal.

But promise me you won’t bury your feelings. Because you deserve to feel. To express the things you’ve been afraid to, the things you’ve been ignoring.

Just let it out, you don’t need to hold onto it anymore. ❤️

Grabbing you by the scruff and walking you to bed because it’s late and you need your sleep⋆｡°✩

[rowanscgblog]

hey there, baby… it’s okay, come here a sec 🫂

i see you… i see the little heart inside that’s feeling heavy. it’s okay to feel scared, sad, or overwhelmed. even if it’s hard to be little, it’s okay to take a moment just for yourself. you can wrap up in a blanket, hug your favorite stuffie, or just take a slow, soft breath. whatever helps you feel safe… it’s gonna be okay.

you’re doing better than you think, sweetheart. even if it doesn’t feel like it. every little step you take, every tiny moment you give yourself, it matters. your feelings are valid, your little heart is important, and it deserves to be seen. it’s okay to be soft, to be small, and to need a break from the world.

you are loved, more than you might realize. you deserve warmth, little moments that make your heart feel light, and lots and lots of hugs. it’s okay to let yourself rest, to let yourself be little, and to know that even in the heavy moments, someone sees you. it’s gonna be okay, kiddo… you’re doing great.

I’d really love to be a caregiver for a sweet little regressor <33

I’d love to spoil them and play with them and make yummy meals for them! We could do whatever they want (within reason of course), and I’d make sure they feel happy and safe and loved <3

I can imagine going to a park and pushing them on the swing and making flower crowns and looking for bugs, or cozying up in bed with a bunch of plushies and reading them a bedtime story, or having a movie night with tasty snacks and playing pretending we’re at a movie theatre. And whenever they have a meltdown or get scared or sad or mad, I won’t yell at them or be mean to them; I’ll just comfort them and reassure them that they’re not a bad kid and I won’t let anything hurt them, and I’ll give them lots of hugs and back rubs and kisses (if they want).

And for the disabled regressors, I’ll make sure to have all the mobility aids and accessibilities for them, and I’d be happy to stay in and help them and cheer them up if they’re having a flare up day or feeling too drained. I’ll have medications and heating pads and their favourite foods and drinks and be extra soft and gentle and loving to help with chronic pain or fatigue. And I’ll be there whenever they need me, even if it’s just to say hi or I love you. They’d never have to feel like a burden or too much with me, they’re just my wonderful amazing little one who’s perfect just the way they are <3

Ahhh great stars being a caregiver would be amazing ^_^

i really truly don’t think there’s enough love for mentally ill regressors in this community, so…

i love you, mentally ill regressors!

i love you, regressors with disorders people find “scary”!

i love you, regressors with personality disorders!

i love you, regressors with cluster A disorders!

⋆｡°✩ i love you, kiddos with paranoid personality disorder! ⋆｡°✩ i love you, kiddos with schizotypal personality disorder! ⋆｡°✩ i love you, kiddos with schizoid personality disorder!

i love you, regressors with cluster B disorders! ⋆｡°✩ i love you, kiddos with borderline personality disorder! ⋆｡°✩ i love you, kiddos with narcissistic personality disorder! ⋆｡°✩ i love you, kiddos with antisocial personality disorder! ⋆｡°✩ i love you, kiddos with histrionic personality disorder!

i love you, regressors with cluster C disorders! ⋆｡°✩ i love you, kiddos with avoidant personality disorder! ⋆｡°✩ i love you, kiddos with dependent personality disorder! ⋆｡°✩ i love you, kiddos with obsessive-compulsive personality disorder!

and if you:

⤷ experience hallucinations and/or delusions

⤷ lack empathy

⤷ struggle with huge emotions OR no emotions at all

⤷ get anxious and paranoid

⤷ struggle to feel safe, maybe even in littlespace

⤷ any other symptoms you might feel “weird” for

guess what??

you’re still an awesome kid (˶˃ ᵕ ˂˶) .ᐟ.ᐟ

your regression is still super duper valid!! you’re still a sweet little baby/kid, no matter what!! even if people think your symptoms are scary or stigmatized, that doesnt say anything about you!!! i think you’re awesome, we should play toys together ദ്ദി ˉ͈̀꒳ˉ͈́ )✧ your regression is valid, no matter what it looks like for you!

i’m not really good at writing posts like this .. (ㅠ﹏ㅠ) but i really wanted to say SOMETHING, because i’ve genuinely found almost zero love or support for regressors with stigmatized personality disorders that might seem “scary”, and as a schizospec narcissist regressor, i think that’s a huge oversight in a community that’s supposed to be a safe space for coping! i wanted to say something and let mentally ill age regressors know that they’re not alone and that they’re welcome in this community ⸜(｡˃ ᵕ ˂ )⸝♡

your symptoms never ever make your littlespace scary, gross, invalid, or unwelcome! this blog will always be a safe space for mentally ill regressors (*ᴗ͈ˬᴗ͈)ꕤ*.ﾟ

Sometimes our memories aren’t nice, huh? It feels scary and sad, doesn’t it baby? It’s okay. Let’s remember/do a few things.

Take a few deep breaths if you can. In through your nose, filling your chest and tummy like a balloon. Then slowly let it out. Do that a couple times.

Get or do something that makes you feel safe. Get a blanket or a stuffie if you need. Rest against a corner if that makes you feel safe. Rocking yourself with your deep breaths may help some. Do whatever you need to do to safely soothe yourself.

Have some water. Sip at it slowly, when our brains get scary sometimes it makes us feel icky. Water will help, just take it gently.

More deep breaths and water until you feel better. It’s okay if it takes a while to calm down. That’s normal. You are safe.

If you are hurt, take care of yourself the best you can. (Yes, you deserve to be taken care of. You have permission to love yourself.)

After you are taken care of, you might be very tired. Big emotions mean big energy loss. Get yourself into bed and snuggled up. If you can’t sleep, at least rest and lay down. Try to close your eyes.

You are loved. You are wanted. And you are more than the scary things that happened to you. Just keep breathing <3

A reminder to all the little ones on here:

There is no minimum amount of hard things in your life required to complain

it doesnt matter what you have or haven't gone through, you deserve a space to complain and be upset. You deserve to have someone listen

little writing from our little one, Siffrin

this was written a while ago but id like to share it again, here

heed the warnings though little ones

been thinking about maybe posting some asl — like a word a day or something fun like that c: here is some basic baby asl

Don’t say that you’re okay with age regression if you aren’t okay with

Whiney littles.

Padded littles.

Littles who have accidents.

Littles who throw tantrums.

Littles who misbehave.

Littles who get on their caregivers nerve and push their buttons.

Littles who are sensitive.

Littles who get unapologetically cranky and snappy at times.

Littles who need things to be just right.

Littles who are a bit of a brat (or a lot of a brat!)

Littles who have meltdowns of rage.

Littles who scream, cry, crash out and throw fits.

Littles who are boys.

Littles who are girls.

Littles who are trans.

Littles who are gnc (gender non-conforming.)

If you’re just not ready to handle ALL aspects of little space. The good, the bad, the cutesy, the ugly, etc.

I refuse to believe that you aren’t okay with Little Space unless you’re ready to handle the ENTIRE Little Space. It is a HUGE red flag for me.

Age regressor who had an unstable/nonexistent childhood

Age regressor who has to reinvent what childhood could have been like because they were too busy caring for everyone else and themself as a child

Age regressor who takes joy in discovering things that bring them joy that they never felt as a child
