#chronically ill regressor

[nostalgiclittlespace]

Age Regression takes many forms.

Extra big shoutout and lots of love to my regressors who don’t have ’typical, active’ pastimes while regressed.

The regressors who don’t crawl on the floor with their toys because they have chronic pain

The trauma regressors who are burnt out by their regression

Littles with sleep disorders, disabilities, or other circumstances that leave them always too tired to play

Littles who live in hostile situations that prevent them from feeling safe enough to enjoy activities

Regressors who have allergies, autoimmune, ED, digestive problems, or other conditions that prevent them from having typical ‘kid snacks’

Littles with depression, primarily impure regression, have tantrums, or other emotional dysregulation that makes them unhappy when regressed

Physically disabled regressors who can’t run around outside and/or don’t have accessible park equipment

Neurodivergent Littles who find certain play and activities uncomfortable for whatever reason

Regressors who struggle with psychosis, delusions, or intrusive thoughts—especially scary ones

Littles who are frequently hospitalized, have to undergo procedures, and/or take medications that make regression difficult

Regressors who can’t afford to buy gear

Littled with disabilities, chronic pain or illness, and autoimmune disorders that leave them constantly feeling sick

Whether it’s due to a disability, chronic pain, depression, living situations, etc, regression is different for everyone, and that should be recognized. Whatever it is, your regression is valid and important. You are welcome here and you are a valued me ever of the community, even if your little space doesn’t look the same as someone else’s. So much of agere is advertised around things like playing with toys, going to the park, having snacks, etc. But that’s not how regression works for everyone, and their experiences shouldn’t be erased because they aren’t a certain ‘aesthetic.’

In fact, you’re really awesome, brave, and strong—and I’m proud of you! Keep on regressing, everyone!

-Marty ❤️

what about cg husk or angel with a little who has a chronic illness or is disabled?

Back to our regularly scheduled content! I can indeed write this for you! Thank you for this request I’ve just came out of a massive flare up myself!

Cg!Huskerdust, spoonie!regressor!reader headcanons!

A/N: I personally have cfs and chronic pains so that’s how I’ll be writing this reader…it may be slightly self indulgent

🕸️🪄 All separate Cg!Husk and Cg!Angel headcanons apply to this as well!

🕸️🪄The two are very careful with how you use up your energy you use up in a day and what it’s used on

🕸️🪄They know how fussy you can get when tired but won’t take a nap

🕸️🪄If it’s a super bad pain day they’re happy to take turns cuddling you in bed all day and taking you to the bathroom (or changing you if needs be)

🕸️🪄Angel decides it’s a good idea to get a pain chart for you! Just one to have on you so you can tell them how your feeling

🕸️🪄Husk makes a sticker chart for you, putting a sticker on each time you overcome something you thought you couldn’t due to pain or fatigue levels that day

🕸️🪄If you’ve got chronic migraines then the two will happily leave you alone while you rest up

🕸️🪄They make sure you’re snug as a bug in a rug with the lights down low and as little noise as possible

🕸️🪄Husk keeps watch of your door incase you come looking for him or just to shush people who are being too loud

🕸️🪄If you get all fussy and whiney because of all the big feelings you’re feeling they’ll have a different reaction than they usually do

🕸️🪄You won’t be put in time out or have a frowny face on your sticker chart no no. They know it’s not your fault baby.

🕸️🪄You’re comforted and calmed the whole time till you’ve stopped fussing

🕸️🪄In my personal experience I’ve found that weighted plushies (Derek I love you) help when I’m in a lot of pain so they’ll have plenty on hand for you

🕸️🪄These two will do whatever you want them to. As long as you’re happy, they’re happy.

I'm a diabetic little nd I been takin care of it on my own since I was little and I have type one nd, recently I been thinkin bout a cg doin it fer me

(If you have medical trauma or are sensitive to medical related things or diabetes related things please scroll now)

Site: a spot for a insulin pump

Pod: Omnipod, an insulin pump

Bloods/bg: blood glucose

Dexcom/cgm: continuous glucose monitor

Insulin: a hormone created by your pancreas to control glucose in your body

Little baby is low and very smol:

"Aww, hi, babyyy~ how old are you right now?" I hold up just one finger and curl up in bed, sucking on my paci then bub comes over and scoops me up, cuddling me "aww, sweet pea, do you feel okay? You're shivering an awful lot" I huff at him and pout before he kisses my forehead and checks his phone, looking at my blood sugar "hm yup, it looks like your blood sugar is a bit low, lovie, what do you want for a snack?" I whine and shake my cuppy "do you want some juice, little one?" I nod and he lays me back down on da bed while he goes and gets me some juice. "Here we go, tiny baby, I put it in a bottle too because you're much too small to drink from a sippy cup" I rub my eyes then take the bottle as dada scoops my up and cuddles me again, making sure I drink all the juice to bring my bloods up before I fall asleep

Toddler is upset by site change and high blood sugar:

I stomp and pout "Nooo! I don wan t change my sitteee!" "Baby, you've had your pod off for a while, you'll feel icky and sick if you don't change it, dada can help you too, little one" I huff and tear up then dit on the bed next to me dada "I don't wannaaa, dada!" I whine "I know, sweet prince but we need to change it okay?" I huff and nod "can we check your blood sugar while we have all the things out, baby?" I nod again, still pouting as bub takes my finger and wipes it before pricking it and holding it to the meter, once it looks it reads 487(md/lg) "oh my goodness, sweet boy, your sugars are really high, let's get a new site on you and check for keytones too okay?" I don't wanna do it but I nod. He helps me change my site, wiping my leg and filling the syringe and filling my pod, priming it them putting it on and holding my hand before the 1... 2.. 3... Pop! And it's in. I tear up again and he hugs me "it's okay, sweet boy". He helps me do a correction and soon after the insulin kicks in, I start feeling better "dank wu, buba"

Or even as simple as having to have a shot because I have keytones and my blood sugar is too high like him giving me my shot then letting me pick out a cute kiddy bandaid then kissing it better because I was so tough and brave and it hurt.

Or going out in public over the summer time for the few weeks I take a pod break and having him help me wiv m shots when I tiny

It seem like liddol m wouwd be very happy becauses I always had t do it by mine self when I was a liddol kid nd havin a dada hewp make me feel really smaw an loved an safes

Okay bye bye lov u aww, tanks fer readin

Play ideas for chronically ill, disabled, or otherwise bed bound/low energy littles

Hi all! I am chronically ill. I am not comfortable sharing my specific diagnosis, but I am more than okay with talking about disability in general. Everything below is based on my own personal experiences and activities I like to do while stuck in bed. Everyone's body and experiences are different. I may list some things that just aren't an option for you, and that's okay. You are more than welcome to add on to this post with activities you do too!

🐛 Open the curtains and cloud watch! I like to look for clouds that remind me of animals or characters and day dream a story about them. If the weather is nice, consider opening your window a little bit and letting some fresh air into your room.

🐦 Bird watch! I have a bird feeder outside my window that I painted myself from a kid's kit. There are also bird feeders that have suction cups that can be stuck right on your window. You can also make your own seed ornaments. You could pick yourself up a kids book or two on learning to identify birds.

🌷 Get a window planter. You may need someone's help to set one up, but once they are in place they are fairly easy to care for. I like pansies and marigolds because they remind me of childhood, and they are low maintenance and do well in containers.

📖 Audiobooks are great for middles who want to read chapter books. If you have a library card you can borrow tons of audiobook, ebooks, and comics through hoopla and Libby for free. There are some audiobooks for younger kiddo books, but honestly I think YouTube is better for that.

🖼️ Scrapbooks and journals! Being penpals with another little is also an option, but I do recommend using basic internet safety and common sense. (I don't think you should do this if you are under 18). You could always scan/take pictures of your letter and send it digitally to your penpal instead.

🛏️ If you spend a lot of time in bed, and have the money to do so, I really recommend getting items to make your time in bed more comfortable. Extra pillows, or even a reading pillow can be helpful. Lap desks or bed tables can give you space to color or set up play scenes with small toys.

🌟 You can also decorate the area around your bed to make it more child like! Fairy lights, glow in the dark stars, bed canopies, posters, and the like.

🪑 I have a floor chair I use for times I am playing outside of my bed. Being close to the floor helps me feel small, but not having back support hurts after a short while. I have an adjustable one that I can lay flat on the floor as a sleeping mat. Very helpful for the times when I need a quick nap after playtime.

🎨 Check the seasonal and kids sections at dollar stores and Five Below. I usually find fun craft kits that can keep me occupied for a bit for really cheap.

🧶 Do your own crafts! I like the knit and crochet. Some people can do them in bed, but I find it difficult to find a comfortable way to do that. However making friendship bracelets in bed works out pretty well. They make great gifts, even for non little friends. Or you could make matching ones for you and your CG or favorite plushie!

🪀 Make your own sensory bin! You can find tons of tutorials and ideas online. Bonus is you can get most of the items you would use at the dollar store. There are tons of other DIY sensory toys you can make as well if you look around. Glitter/shaker bottles are pretty popular too.

🐇 Cuddle with your stuffed animals. Tell them stories. Play pretend. Read to them. They will appreciate all of it.

🎮 If you have an old 3DS stuffed away in a drawer somewhere, pull it back out. 3DS are fairly easy to install homebrew and there are toooons of kiddo friendly games you could get (check 3ds.hacks.guide for this, do not follow tutorials on YouTube or random websites as they very well could be outdated)

💊 Decorate your medicine organizers with stickers. If you use mobility aids you can decorate them as well! Fake flowers are great for decorating mobility aids and there are tons of ideas you can find online.

🍼 I have stomach problems that makes it hard for me to eat enough. I often drink Ensure to make sure I am getting enough calories/nutrients. I get the strawberry flavor and sometimes put it in my sippy cup and pretend it is strawberry milk 😋

😴 If you need rest, rest! You deserve to get as much sleep as your body needs. Babies and toddlers take naps all the time! Trying to just exist with chronic health issues is difficult enough. You don't need to push yourself.

I’ve got a message for everyone! It’s important!

Are you ready? Cus it’s a big one!

You DONT have to push yourself past your limits. You know your limits, and you have them for a reason! It’s okay to not do extra for other people if it’s too much!

If it would hurt your mind or your body or your feelings, then you gotta say, “Im sorry but it’s too much!” Then you can take a break and do it later, or not do it at all!

If you have an ouchie for a little while, look after it! Don’t do things that it’ll make it ouchie again! If you have an ouchie for a long time, you know what you can manage! Use whatever tools you need to feel your best, and do what you can manage, but never push yourself because someone else says you gotta. It’s your body, you know it!

If you get real sad or your brain gets all frizzy, over something little or something big, you know yourself! You gotta take a BIIIIIIIG breath and say “I need some space. This I say limit, and I’m not going past it.”

Because respecting your limits is respecting yourself! And everyone needs to respect themselves, because princesses and princes, pirates and knights, adults, kiddos and animals all need to remember that one way to show yourself just how much you love you and just how much you’re worth is to respect yourself.

And in case you forgot, you’re worth thiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiis much

Guess who’s in a flare up ☹️

[puppy-bingus]

A caregiver teaching their little one how to do a wheelie in their first wheelchair. Being so supportive and cheering them all the way through. Going to get a little treat after a long day of trying over and over. The little one being pushed home and able to relax the rest of the day.

Slán Go Fóill! 🏥❤️‍🩹

Hi all, just so everyone knows I'm going to be taking a short break from Tumblr. I'll still be here to like all your lovely posts and DMs are open for mutuals, but I won't be posting anything myself. My physical health isn't too good right now. Don't worry, I'll be back really soon!

- Your friend, Minty 💚

[blxxdbxnnie]

kinda funny how

kinda like

KINDA ALMOST LIKE AGE REGRESSION IS A COMMON SYMPTOM/EXPERIENCE OF NEURODIVERGENCE AND IT SHOULDN'T BE GROUNDS TO SHUN SOMEONE FROM SOCIETY BECAUSE THAT'S JUST *ABLEISM*

[stuffielovinhours]

Disabled littles, chronically ill littles, neurodiverse littles, littles with sensory issues, littles with mental health issues, littles with physical and/or mental impairments/conditions, be it severe or mild or anywhere in between, are ALL valid <3

[agere-fics]
