[ 💧 🧸 ] tips for helping an insecure regressor ! !

sometimes i get super duper worried that my caregiver is uncomfortable with my regression , so i thought it’d be useful to caregivers / sitters / flips to have some tips on helping manage a self—conscious regressor !

— instead of simply reassuring them , treat them like a little / however they would like to be treated ! while reassurance can be helpful , in my opinion , actions are much more comforting

— in worse situations ( breakdowns / tantrums / etc. ) give them activities to do ! coloring pages are very nice for me , but if it’s something you can do in person together , i would recommend text—based tasks like having them tell you about their day , about their interests , anything really ! this might not seem like much , but being given little commands can help us feel very connected to being a regressor !

— similar to the previous one , give them a checklist ( this can work in person or over phone / text ) . this is a more general piece of advice , but it will help take their mind off of the worry and will help them feel accepted & taken care of !

— the most obvious one : talk about it with them . this is an easier thing to do when they are big ( not regressed ) , but having them explain , or try to explain , why they feel insecure can be very very helpful in your methods of reassuring them as well as taking some heaviness off of them ( talking does help ! )

If you’re struggling right now, you don’t have to fight alone/in silence. There are free resources where you can speak to someone.

This poll is a celebration of fandom and fandom history; we're aware that there are certain issues with some of the listed pairings and sources, but they are a part of that history. Please do not take this as an endorsement of anything included in the bracket, and refrain from harassment.

there's such an endearing innocence to cynthia's elphaba, like the way she immediately assumes glinda had her best intentions in mind by giving her that (hideodeous) hat because no one had been kind to her before, to the way she was visibly nervous but excited to attend her first party, and even up until popular, where she earnestly attempts to follow glinda's advice, plus the entirety of the wizard and i.

you can tell this is a girl who just wants to do good and be genuinely accepted, so when she's visibly hurt and feels betrayed during the ozdust scene, it is so painful and heartbreaking to watch. and then cynthia begins crying, and you can't help but cry with her.

and what if i said cordelia only dated xander because that was the closest she could get to dating buffy. whatttt 😳 who said that...?

I'm sorry but "Mai has to stop Azula from committing suicide" blows "Zuko has to stop Azula from committing suicide," "Katara has to stop Azula from committing suicide," and even "Ty Lee has to stop Azula from committing suicide" completely out of the water.
