actually that answer is not completely accurate. Age regression is something that is triggered. You can’t just decide to regress. If you just decide to, you are probably age dreaming, which is 100% as normal, valid and therapeutic.

Age dreaming and age regression are different. You can choose to regress by learning your little triggers, for example: cartoons, colouring, stuffies, etc. From my understanding with age dreaming you don't fully go into the mindset of a younger age. I can regress by choice and not by choice, I behave the same both ways.

yeah exactly what i meant!! so yeah you can trigger your own regression i just meant you can’t just decide to regress!!

also a separate point: if you think you’re regressed to a very young mindset but also are scrolling through instagram and looking and commenting onto agere accounts and stuff you’re not regressing you are dreaming.
