How did your Little Space evolve?

[MarshmallowPeep]

Hey friends!

I haven't been active in a long time, but I come here with a snack for your thoughts and I've plenty to go around!

I originally joined this site when I was about 19. It has been 4 long years since and I have come to find that my little space is different now, but not in a bad way! The way I perceive myself, my needs, and parts of me have changed as I gained understanding and I am very curious how you guys feel like you evolved.
Personally, I have slowly grown to discover that I am Polyamorous and that my Little Age was older than what I originally thought it was. I have found things that make me feel little without triggering full regression, and I have grown to make it more and more part of my day to day life. After all, little me turned out to just be me when I am happy and relaxed, not some separate part of me I had to reach deep into to find. 

What things have you learned about yourselves since joining the community?

I really like how you described what age regression or littlespace does for you. 💗 I have been someone that viewed the community from the sidelines but kept it hidden deep in myself until I finally jumped in this year. I learned that it's OK for me to be myself as that's what makes me happy. I've embraced being sweet, soft, and little. 🥰 I have thoroughly loved making it part of my everyday life too!

I discovered what littlespace was about 3 or 4 years ago. At the time I figured I was a middle which is kind of just me when I'm not stressed and adulting in the working world lol.  Then I discovered that I had a littler side like 5ish. It's been interesting to delve a little deeper and freeing to let go and de-stress

I have always been a little ever since I was little. It wasn’t until I was about 20 that I learned there was an actual name for it. I found the DDLG world and learned the lingo  and it was like I finally felt that I was normal; and that having these feelings were okay. I used to be so ashamed of wanting so badly to regress and had intense feelings of embarrassment and confusion about my sexuality. I struggled deeply with my mental health and never felt that I could truly be vulnerable with the People I love. When I finally came out to my Daddy my whole world changed. I’m still learning how to communicate my needs while trying to nurture myself to be healthier mentally. But I couldn’t feel more at peace with where my journey has taken me. How relieving it is to just be yourself 🌸
