Is it normal to want to act like a baby?

I'm young. I still go to school and live with my parents. I started developing this urge to be act like baby about a year ago. Nobody knows abour this urge. I don't know why, but I want to act like a baby. I find it comforting somehow? Like even at school, I'll speak in a high pitched voice, whine, randomly (gently) hit people, feel the urge to be next to someone, feel safe when I'm next to someone older than me. I don't know if this is because of my personal life. Maybe it's because I have a childhood full of sad events? My parents broke up when I was like nine, I used to get bullied, I'm very upset with the way I look, I have anxiety, etc.

    It's a common coping mechanism for those with ptsd, or just something developed to deal with hard times or mental illness. You should talk to someone about it but don't think you're crazy or anything, age regression happens to lots of people.

    Again, not normal. Watch the tv show called Strange Addictions. You will find suck a man that has the same addiction you do.

  • No it's not normal but I enjoy it so much in girls. I manipulated all my girlfriends to act like babies. Now my current one keeps sending me baby bottles emojis and records herself speaking like a baby. She also dances and shakes like a baby a lot in the house.

    I used to want to act like that too, but I found that it was just me not wanting to grow up. Things around here have been changing and I felt like they were changing too fast. I'm sure it'll pass, but if it doesn't you could always chat online with roleplays or such
