"age regression is a trauma coping mechanism, why don't people post about their trauma regression, why is regression seen as cute and fun always, there's not enough posts about trauma regressors! regression is becoming a hobby now >:(!"
LET PEOPLE REGRESS FOR FUN AND ENJOY THEIR CUTESY REGRESSION, FOR THE LOVE OF GOD. if your regression is purely negative and trauma based, then fine! you post about it! but everyone knows regression isn't always cutesy and aesthetic - you don't need to bash people who regress for fun or enjoy said aesthetics, paci edits, etc, just to get a point across that the agere community as a whole already knows. because we all know that agere isn't all sunshine and rainbows already.
some people want regression to be their hobby, or for fun, or because they enjoy cutesy things. heck, my regression is also heavily linked with trauma and coping - but forgive me for not wanting to post about my literal trauma and the negative parts of my regression for people online to see, and instead focusing on the positives of my regression and cutesy aesthetics i enjoy whilst small.
there's nothing wrong with regressing just because you want to, as a hobby, or because it's fun. just because someone doesn't regress due to trauma, or they do but they'd rather not focus on that aspect of it, doesn't make their regression or their content any less valid. we don't have to be sharing our traumas or the bad parts of our regression in order to be taken seriously or seen as valid regressors if we don't want to. thanks.
