Crazy question but, has anyone tried age regression to stay sober?
I’ve heard that some therapists recommend age regression as a coping mechanism in response to trauma and stuff. Not the weird shit like pretending to be a baby and all that, but letting go of your adulthood for a bit and pretending you’re still your old self, when you were happier.
I started drinking regularly when I was 16 and I haven’t turned back since. It was an instant addiction pretty much and in my mind I consider it the end of my childhood.
I’m wondering if I spend the night (when I usually drink) surrounding myself with old video games/movies/hobbies that I enjoyed when I was a kid, it might make me regress back to a time when I found joy in things without needing alcohol. Does this sound weird? Has anyone tried this?
