Just to also toss in some thoughts:

Regression (aka “littlespace”) is also not necessarily an experience or change of state in thinking, acting, or even feeling. Regression can be a reaction, where regression is more obviously unfiltered due to a person having determined social acceptance, but “a little” is a personality in itself though, where thoughts, inclinations, and feelings to gravitate to that of a younger mental age are present as an underlying constant. A little is a little because they have some level of perpetual regression by personality. It isn’t typical so can be an abstract concept.

“Being in littlespace” is the same as “being regressed”. When those statements are made the speaker is meaning that they are more consciously aware of their draw toward regressive behaviors and stunted interests. It may feel more obvious or stronger in intensity than before the individual became aware. Awareness, or lack of, doesn’t necessarily mean what is occurring now was not previously occurring.

I haven’t been offended, upset, bothered, or hurt by any of the conversation occurring in this topic. I don’t feel anyone reading this likely experiences those feelings provoked by this exchange. These types of conversation are necessary and healthy for our growth. I’m really sorry if it felt like I was unhappy about anything you said, but I assure you that I was pleased to see your thought-provoking post and that I’m in positive spirits about the conversation here.

Thank you so much! I have a lot to learn and I see now I have nothing to fear. I don't mind that i was trying to process things in ways they aren't. I want to learn too! Thank you both for being so patient and gentle. I admit i'm fragile like a snowflake sometimes, but I know I feel confident posting in the future now. I'll study what you all have shared.
