Haven't felt little in so long

[LilPanda24]

Hi! I am a 19-year-old little with a wonderful Daddy but I need help. I haven't been connecting with my little space in so long. I would say that I haven't felt little in maybe a couple of months or so. Daddy tries his best to help me but I just can't seem to get in the headspace. It seems to be more stressful than it is fun and relaxing it feels like. I feel so bad because I don't wanna hurt Daddy because I know that he tries so hard.

 

I recently tried to have a play date with my little friend and at first, it was going great, but when we started to actually play with toys, I didn't feel little anymore and I feel like I hurt my friend. Does anyone have any advice as to what I can do to connect with the space again??

I am so sorry that you are feeling this way and having a hard time, I experienced a similar thing with a previous little I was with for several years. From what we found together the more we tried to force it the more difficult and stressful it became. It took several months but we realized together "trying to be little" was actually causing negative outcomes. The moment we just allowed it to happen and stopped talking about it was the best decision we made and she naturally began to slip into little space. You are probably putting a lot of pressure on yourself and your Daddy is feeling the pressure and guilt as well for not being able to help you get to that point. You know better then me but it is a state of mind and you cannot force that at all. I would give it time, relax have another play date and just ease back into it slowly without trying to "make time" for it and I bet you will find your little space again. 

I wish you and your Daddy the best!!

I'd agree with the previous comment that trying to force it won't help. If you're constantly overthinking, worrying about not feeling little, then it's going to be very difficult to get back into that headspace. Find things that help you relax, particularly things that have some element of littlespace involved - such as cartoons. You could also try stress reduction techniques like breathing exercises, and you might even find that something relatively simple like having a bubble bath gets you closer to littlespace. Unfortunately the more you overthink it and stress about how you're not feeling, the harder it will be. Even though it's difficult to not think about something, finding distractions from the way you're feeling has the potential to help.
