Dealing with littlespace bleed over (Maybe TW)
Post Body

Lately I've been having trouble with being in littlespace. Let me preface by saying I'm safe and etc. I was severely abused as a child. Being in littlespace greatly helps me heal the past trauma. However, I "swap" unintentionally and will hide under furniture until my mommy comes to get me out. Not only dealing with this, I've also been throwing internal tantrums about things. I feel like I'm in little space almost all the time and am forcing myself to do adult things (go to work, do chores, and etc.) I've also found myself being extremely concerned (almost like a bleed over) of things I worry about while in littlespace, such as my lego figures needing a place to sleep or a place to work) impacting my thought process out of littlespace. Is this normal? Or am I just kind of always in littlespace?

Sound like you might want to try to heal your inner child... idk..that's just my heads answer :)

I started by buying books. A bunch of them...And read them! Buy books written by medical professionals ... not self help stuff by religious authors. Healing your inner child would be the search I'd start with while looking... find support otherwise..therapy or counseling type of system

I put in to see 2 different therapists. Both specialize in trauma and kink (which I am thinking will include littlespace) . Hopefully I can make some headway.

I appreciate it. I have been in counselling for the better part of 8 years. I had a great counselor but I lost them when I had to move far away. Honestly, I've never really been able to fully leave littlespace and let my big take over all the way. My mommy/cg/wife is a social worker so I am covered for the really big stuff with her. I was thinking of finding a counselor that specializes in childhood trauma. My biggest fear is that who I work with will want to get rid of my little so my big is in charge and the only one left. My last counselor specialized in kink but I wasn't with them long enough to really work on it. I really need to get back into counseling asap. Thank you for caring enough to write me.
