Trying to put someone in a regressed headspace


Recommended Posts

Posted

I need help figuring out how to put my partner into a regressed headspace. I'm still new to the whole caregiver aspect I'm a switch with sub little lean. My partner helps me whenever I'm emotionally or mentally need help or relieve stress but I can't figure out how to do the same for him. I feel useless when I can't help him with those kinds of things when he needs to relax and destress from the week or work. So I'm coming here to try and get help to be able to help him regress.

You can't put someone into a regressed headspace. You can create a conducive environment sure but that requires your partner be able to tell you what they need, what helps them relax and what creates that environment for them personally. Every person is different so what's going to work for one person won't necessarily work for others.

For some people it may be primarily auditory triggers. For others tactile or olfactory. Have a conversation with your partner about their needs but understand it is up to them to be able to explain, you aren't a mind reader.

For me personally it's olfactory and tactile based. Cuddling into my Daddy's chest just after He has put on His signature scent.

As for feeling useless, just try and remember, you are there to facilitate your partner in reaching the space they desire but you can't make anyone feel a certain way, that's up to them.

Thank you for responding and I'll try to talk to him about what would help him go into that space

For me would be auditory or hypersensitive. However I have gone DD. Ever since I was three I never felt the feel of a wet diaper. Sound, feel, taste, light, temps . is my main. You could say I could go switch with the right girl I guess.

I totally agree with everything that @little Kaiya has said above. Attempting forced regression, especially as a "support" mechanism to for any form of past trauma, should only be carried out by trained professionals with backup from their own medical and psychiatric organisations. We as CGs & DDs should only offer our care, our support and our love to our partners, littles and middles. Doing anything more puts them at risk beyond our knowledge.
