I'm kind of somewhere in between. I see myself as an AK with "problems" during the day or at night and needs diapers. I imagine my inner kid has gone sort of feral from all the bad Daddies in the past and so though she's "older" about 6/7 her mental/emotional age is closer to 3ish.
I've found that if I'm super stressed it stays in easier because I tend to suck on my tongue without a paci when I'm stressed. If I'm using a paci just cause I like it then it tends to fall out.
I'm a little in Seattle who has just joined this site. Looking for friends to play with and enjoy some little time and eventually maybe a caregiver/guardian.
I've found tactile activities help me, so depending on your little age, lego, finger painting, playing with kenetic sand ect all help me get into that space
Actually! If you go on youtube and look up ASMR videos. You can find some that are Daddy role play and they soooo help when I need a Daddy to listen to. They also have Mommy ones too.
I have about a handful of very clear memories but none before the age of five and the memories I do have are very sporadic. I also have trouble remembering current events and there are times when people will go, "remember last week when we did ..." and I have to say no because I don't.
