Is it safe or okay for pemare regressors to do adult things?
It's a little difficult to say since it depends on what kind of thing it is, and also a lot of other factors such as the age/developmental stage the person is regressed to, if they are fully- or partially regressed, if their cognitive abilities are affected (and how severely), and any disabilities/medical disorders the person may have. As an example, someone who is partially to fully regressed to a 14-year old is most likely going to have different support needs and experiences from someone who is fully regressed to a 2-year old 24/7.
Permaregressors do tend to struggle with everyday tasks/IADLs (eg budgetting, transportation, cooking, shopping) and ADLs (eg personal hygiene, eating, drinking, getting dresssed) in varying degrees. While it isn't officially labeled as a disability as far as I know, being permanently regressed can be pretty disabling, and it can mean that there are certain things that aren't safe to do.
If you're a permaregressor and you're in doubt as to whether or not something is safe for you to do, I'd recommend talking to either a professional about it, such as a doctor or therapist, or someone who knows you well, like a caregiver or your parents.
If it's someone else, you can ask them. It's way better to ask than to make assumptions that might not be true. If they're unable to answer/don't know the answer, or if they're a young child, you can ask someone who knows them well, like their parents/guardians or other caregivers. (Just please try to ask the person directly if possible, since it can be really upsetting for a lot of people when someone is talking to them through another person and is just assuming that they're unable to communicate.)
(Please note that I am not a professional on this topic in any way, and that the information I've provided comes from research I've done, and the experiences of myself and other people. If anything I've said is wrong, please let me know.)

Ur fave is a permagressor: its me.
I'm in my late 20s but for some reason got stuck at 14. Trauma? Maybe. Just vibing. Although I do feel out of place in the real world, despite how "successful" I supposedly am at it.

What is Permanent Regression?
Permanent regression is a non-agere term used when someone who has experienced severe trauma or otherwise brain-alterning event(s) enters a permanent and indefinite state of longterm regression in age. It is exclusively involuntary, often being an unpleasant and stressful way to live, and can also fall under the umbrella of dissociative symptoms. It is not a part of the age regression community, or a community term. Permanent regression is used as a medical identifier, for those who have a severe set of symptoms due to neurological and/or mental health conditions.
Tumblr media
How does it affect people?
People who are in permanent regression cannot control their regression or regression-affected behaviors, such as cleaning, eating, bathing, or working. Permanent regressors often have body dysmorphia, age dysphoria, identity incognruence, trauma symptoms, and dissociative episodes. It is often impossible to function in daily life as someone who is permanently regressed without a designated family member, therapist, caregiver, or combination of adult guardian(s.) Permanent regression is majorly disruptive in every aspect of a person's life, activities, and personal relationships.
Tumblr media
Is this the same as forever-kids?
The short answer is no. While forever-kids is a similar term, permanent regressors are unable to be aware of their adult status or do anything to switch off, they are completely regressed at all times. Forever kids is a community term, and loosely defined as "a regressor who is always or almost always in their headspace" (credit: deliriousdadd on IG.) Permanent regression is different, and not a headspace. It is where one cannot conceptualize they are in an adult body or have adult obligations, and live every day in the mental state of an infant or child. They are unable to do most things on their own, or ever come out of the regression they are in.
Tumblr media
Am I a permanent regressor?
Permanent regression can often come across as delusion or dissociation due to the severity of it, which is why the answer will usually be no, and thats okay! It's a lot nicer to be someone that can use regression voluntarily and positively, and enjoy the time spent regressing. If you are able to complete basic tasks and bodily care, are aware and/or comfortable in being an adult, find your regression is mostly/entirely enjoyable or comforting, can function without adult input/help, or your regression is voluntary, you are likely not a permanent regressor.
Tumblr media
Can I become a permanent regressor?
No. Permanent regression is not only completely involuntary, but also comes with a whole lot of pain, discomfort, and confusion. It is not something to aspire too or want to "achieve." While it's very possible to have good times and positive feelings as a permanent regressor, it is still a symptom of severe conditions. Just because it may sound like something nice, to "really feel like a kid all the time," in reality it is a life of misplacement and can be lonely.
Tumblr media
Important things to note
Permanent regression is not something that is usually healthy or happy for those going through it. It is very important that if you are privleged enough to have access to healthcare such as therapy, and you feel you may be in permanent regression or nearing it, to see someone that can help you cope with it. Not everyone has access to the trauma therapy or medication needed to be able to move on and heal, and some people that are permanently regressed will not be able to move past it at all. Be concious of how you speak to those that experience it, and understand that what others are going through is likely much more alarming for them than it is for you.

my regression isnt fun. it isnt aesthetic. my house is a mess and i get bugs because i cant take care of it myself. i forget to feed my cats without my dads help. my room is messy with clothes and toys but in a way that i cant get around it. i cant cook by myself and i really cant do dishes. i sob for hours about age dysphoria and body dysmorphia. everyday i have to work i get scared and fight off crying the whole time. i cant function as an adult and an adult is what im seen as. its terrifying to be a kid and feel so alone all the time

Being lifestyle/open Regressor... Is not as much fun as on might think imma tell ya! It's worth it to me, but I do still tone it down/completely downplay it for safety or comfort reasons!
Tumblr media
For me I do it for healing reasons plus symptomatic reasons (Schizospec, ADHD, autism and bpd) I'm almost always regressed.
