Why are you little?

[Guest LittleLexiKitty]

So i was talking my one friend the other day and she asked me why do i live as a little? (she wasent trying to be mean or anything).

For me its all about escaping all the stress and everything that i have to deal with everyday. Living as a little helps me get things accomplished and helps me deal with people and deal with all the grown up duties.

Its also very peaceful for me, when im little and sucking on my paci i can instantly fall asleep (normally it takes me like an hour to fall asleep and i wake up random times)

Just being little and playing with my stuffies, coloring or sucking on my paci while watching movies or cuddling daddy (when i had one)...to me theres nothing like that feeling of safeness and happiness then when im in daddys arms

 

So i was wondering what do other people think? why are you little?

is it just because you enjoy it? is it cause it helps you cope?

or some other reason?

For me it's a combination of helping me deal with stress/anxiety/depression and just because I enjoy it. It's part of what makes me, me. I have always liked to color, play with/cuddle with stuffies, and had a secret desire for a binkie. I never told anyone about that last one until I discovered that dd/lg was a thing and came out to my Daddy. When I did, it helped me quit smoking almost immediately. I enjoy coming home from work and being able to get into littlespace and just forget the big world and all the grown up duties and responsibilities. It helps me de-stress and just enjoy life.

Life has been a roller-coaster ride. Being little helps me relax from past current stress and the disorders it has given me. I love playing with my plushies and coloring. Being little and enjoying simple things like blanket forts and animated movies. Cuddling, eating off little colorful plates and cups! I love it all

Little is just always been who I am. I was always told I have Peter Pan symdrome because I never really grew out of my childhood. I just got physically bigger and learned to adult but nothing else really changed.

 

I was also raised primarily in foster homes so I had to learn to adult pretty young so maybe I just cling to whatever childhood I was allowed to enjoy.

I think there are SOOO many things things contribute to me being little and involved in DDLG.

 

     One of the first things that comes into mind , is the fact that I had no childhood. My childhood was toxic and I had to take car of myself , I never had a chance to be a fun loving and carefree child. So , now that I am an adult and have admitted many things to myself I can clearly see my natural regression from an earlier age than 18. I've always looked for a guiding hand since my parents were absent or incoherent. I've always felt this urge to truly need someone , and understand what it is like to be truly cared for and wanted. Not to be treated as a mistake , but a wonderful choice.

 

     More affectedly , I have major anxiety and an eating disorder. Being little is who I am , and delving  deep into that head space of being a little really subsides anxieties. No , it doesn't always work.. nor should it. It shouldn't be the only coping mechanism for anxiety but LORD DOES IT HELP. It lets me focus on other things rather than the million and one things that could go wrong at any moment.. I can instead hold my stuffy tight and hum some cute songs. As for my ED ; it puts food out of my hands. Eating is on my chore chart , and I get rewards for eating three meals a day. It gives me something positive to put onto the idea of food , and gives me encouragement that I can do it because of stars I have already earned ! (Plus who doesn't like buying pretty things with your earned stars?!!)

 

    Being little is who I have always been based on circumstances in my life. I enjoy every little bit of it , rewards , punishments , and lots of cuddles included. I am glad I am a little , prideful of it even

I dont know why i love my little self right now xD I think its the phase and time where you can finally found your true self.. i'm being little cause i love getting dominated, i love rules, i love to be told what to do.. I think its more like i could feel they care about me and treat me like little girl.. i told my bestfriends that i'm no ordinary relationship its ddlg and they ask the same question like you have been questioned.. surely they'd understand and I enjoy myself being little.. I love being little :3
