Really worried about myself

Last night I regressed bad and lost my memory but luckily my friend was around and spoke to me for about 4 hours and then I went to bed regressed cos I was so tired and exhausted

When I woke up this morning I had a message off my friend and then I was reading our conversation from last night and I couldn’t even understand what I was saying and the parts I could were complete nonsense and nothing I was saying was true

I don’t understand why my head does this, like why does my head regress to I guess like different people and then talk about stuff that isn’t even true or that has never happened

I really don’t understand it :( I don’t understand me :(

    This sounds so scary @Rose113 I'm so sorry you're going through this. I'm really glad you had your friend - they sound like a really good friend to you, kind of like an anchor when you are experiencing the regressing.

    It sounds really confusing and I really do wish there was more support out there for age-regressing. I honestly can't imagine how it must make you feel. It genuinely frustrates me that there's so little support so I can't imagine how it feels being in your shoes. I can hear how much you're struggling with it, and it must feel really confusing reading over messages that you don't remember sending. I imagine it to be a bit of an out-of-body experience, or like you're reading over messages that was sent by someone else. Does that sound right?

    Can I also ask if you know of anyone else who experiences age-regressing? And what kind of support/information you've managed to find about it?

    Please gentle with yourself <3 You're coping with so much.

    Hey @River @Little_Sammy

    We've decided to blank the recent comments on this thread as when a Community Member is experiencing age regression and presenting under the age of 13, our services here at The Mix are not suitable for them. Because our age remit for our Community is 13-25, it wouldn't be safe or appropriate for us to host conversations that involve someone appearing under the age of 13, even when this is due to age regression.

    This means your comments have been blanked to say they have been deleted. We have had to do it this way as it means we can still keep a log of what the original comments were, without them being public. It's super important we maintain safety for all of our Community. We want to thank those who offered support as your responses were super kind and well-intentioned. This decision is not a reflection on anyone who offered help. Instead, it is just our responsibility to keep the Community safe and within the age requirements that protect all members.

    Therefore, if anyone is experiencing age regression and presenting under the age of 13, we ask that you do not use our Community whilst age-regressed, which includes our Discussion Boards and Group Chats. Instead, we would encourage you to reach out to:
    • Childline by calling 0800 1111 or going to https://www.childline.org.uk/
    • YoungMinds by going to https://www.youngminds.org.uk/young-person/
    • Your local GP (doctor) may also be an option for you. GPs offer access to further help with any physical or mental health problem. They can prescribe treatments and medicines for physical and mental health conditions, and they can refer individuals on to specialist doctors and healthcare professionals for longer-term help with specific problems. You can find a list of local GPs at www.nhs.uk
    • You can also text "THEMIX" to 85258 for confidential 1:1 support that is there for you 24/7.

    You are more than welcome to use our Community when you are in our age remit of 13-25, and presenting in this remit.

    We are also communicating with the member privately in DMs to ensure they get the appropriate support. Thank you for continuing to look out for one another folks, and if you have any questions about this, please do pop a DM to @TheMix
