every mental health professional i’ve told about my age regression says it’s not regression and insists it’s something else. at first it was just my group therapist that i had last year and since then every individual therapist i’ve had and my old psychiatrist all said it was was something else too. they just tell me that what i’m doing is not age regression but i mentally and emotionally regress. the only thing i can think of it being besides regression is DID littles which we’ve talked about but they won’t diagnose me because of stigma and i’ve never been tested for it. i have bpd and possibly autism so i thought me age regressing would be a normal and obvious thing for professionals. a lot of them also said i just have anxiety. i know it’s talked about a lot here that therapists recommend age regression but i feel like i’ve only ever been invalidated by professionals.
