I'm i like this one, but why are we like this is this like autism or alcoholism ?

[@linnea1435]

PureVikingPowers Wtf, what does autism have to do with this?

[@erenyeager6015]

Linnéa Niklasson lots of autistic children use dummys or pacis longer if they stim to help calm them down

[@PureVikingPowers]

Chilla ja linnea många autistiska släpper varken napp och blöja, inte för att de inte kan gå på toa för det gör dom. Men det är en trygghet att bara ha blöja ist för trosor. Och det med alkolism va ett dåligt skämt om att dom suger på flaskan. Men autism har med det att göra, alkolism nja not so much =)

how can something like a cigarette (which is harmful to you and others) be accepted by society but her sucking a dummy gets frowned upon? i mean she isnt hurting *anyone*. we live in such a twisted world

[@davisb9380]

Smoking is defo frowned upon that it has to be heavily taxed

[@animecosplays4371]

Yea I agree like if you smoke no one looks at you but if you have a pacifier\ dummy and your not a baby people will look at you even when it’s not harming anyone

[@nataleeisjustchilling2737]

Because pacifiers are for baby’s (hence them being in the baby aisle at a store)

[@RochelleHa]

Because smoking doesn’t go against the natural cycle of life, hence aging from babyhood

[@Wishfull._..Editor57]

@@RochelleHa umm smoking dose go against the natural cycle of life it literly kills ur lungs and pacifiers arent natural they don't grow on trees their man made- ur comment is so dumb i don't even know what to say

[@gymnastics2gg]

how does she still gave perfect teeth :0 :(

[@peligrodefrio5303]

Narriesse Darbon cause people still believe that if you suck on your thumb or pacifier that it will effect your teeth, but your body actually decides what kind of teeth you get. I've never sucked on my thumb and sucked on my pacifier when I was 1/2 and stopped before my teeth were falling out. And I never played with my gums with my tongue. But when I got my adult teeth, it wasn't even in a good shape and I had to get braces for 2 years.. now that is out of the way, and my teeth is perfect rn.

[@ayaelhajj8763]

Honey Bae sucking your thumb affects the direction your teeth will grow

[@xolozziibaybee]

Yeah but it doesn't mean you ONLY have bad teeth when you suck your thumb/a dummy. Sucking your thumb does affect the direction of growth as when a thumb is in the mouth constantly, it's constantly pushing your teeth forward

[@noemirose9043]

I sucked my thumb when I was a toddler to the age around 8 or 9. It caused an overbite. Now, I'm 24 and wearing braces for that and some crooked teeth on the bottom. :D

[@sarahwass6249]

Lauren Evans yes I agree I suck my thumb at the age 35 shameful really. my teeth are really bad had braces and I ripped them off at the age of 16 my over bite is now massive my front teeth are so far forward the hole gum gets reshaped too 🙈 no strait teeth for me ever 😬

[@ethanallen7936]

I'm 18 as well and I use a dummy (pacifier) as my comfort for stress and anxiety. It is really comforting and soothing to use when all worked up about stuff. In no way is it weird or creepy. We all have our own ways to deal with stress, and this is how me and the person of this video deal with stress.

[@cakepudding3220]

Edit: received it yesterday, after 10 minutes of sucking it literally melted away most of my stress, and I didn’t feel as tight. Never felt so relaxed before, it was great.

She's not a freak. She can be who she wants to be and she can do what she wants to do and no one have the rights to stop here. It may not be natural but thats what she feels comfortable doing.

[@slendymeng421]

The use of a 'dummy' is one of the first stress relievers a human learns; along with crying. I completely support the use of one throughout life. It's an extremely effective method of handling stress, but society thinks that baby/toddler stuff needs to be "let go" at a certain age for some reason. Wouldn't logic tell you that if something works for people, you shouldn't shun it? This sort of thing can be applied to almost the ENTIRE "Freak Like Me" series.

[@raelyngrace9323]

I’m an age reggresor/little so i find this normal

[@ISleepWithAFanOn]

I'm 31 and use one, sleep with stuffed animals, and wear cute animal pajamas to bed. Sorry for the story, but I wanted to explain how I sort of got into this stuff. I know a lot of people out there think things like this are absolutely bizarre, and while I agree that I do think it's a bit strange itself, there's a reason I got into "age regression", which is mentally going back to a younger age than you are in real life. I was emotionally neglected as a child, and only realized about a year ago that it was the source of a lot of my depression, among other problems in life. Around the time of this realization, I met a woman. Shortly after meeting and getting to know her for a couple of months, she was rear-ended at a stop light. It herniated a lot of the disks in her back. She's disabled. She can no longer do the job she loved to do. The injury also gave her a concussion, so she wasn't in her normal head for awhile. I supported her throughout all of it. When she eventually started getting back to normal (mentally due to the concussion... she'll always have back problems), she admitted just how much I meant to her, especially since a lot of people abandoned her. We fell in love, and started dating. I've always been pretty shy about admitting things to people, even past boyfriends and girlfriends, but she's the most understanding and caring person I've ever met. I knew I could admit anything to her and she would be supportive, even if it was something she thought was strange. It just so happened that she thought it was cute, and there are times when she and I act like mommy/son. I won't say why, but she can't have children. She's a year younger than me, and has always wanted to be a mother, and has admitted that I'm the closest thing she'll ever have to a son... and given my troubled childhood, she's the closest thing I'll ever have to a mother. For her and I, this mother/son relationship is NOT involved in our sex lives. It's separate, although a lot of people that are in these types of relationships do incorporate that into their sex lives. For me, this is not an addiction. I don't feel compelled to do this in a way that would make me irritable or anything if I wasn't able to. The mood just strikes whenever. I suppose in the end, it's a coping mechanism. Sure, a lot of people will find it weird, but I keep it to myself and it doesn't control my life. In the end, is that really so bad? Is it that weird? Does that make me a freak? If it does, then I'm happy being one :)

[@metalisanarchist]

[@therealSkarloey]

Age regression is innocent and is an 100% valid coping mechanism 😊💖
