    Age regression is when somebody reverts to a child-like state of mind, often as a coping mechanism for things like PTSD, depression, anxiety, and other mental and physical health issues. Basically age regressors are more at-peace and worry-free whilst in "little space" (A term for when one is in said mindset). These people simply need breaks from stress and responsibilities.
Some age regressors refer to themselves as littles and to their significant others as "Daddy", "Mommy", or just as their "Caregiver" Since they'd typically take care of their "Little" as if they're an actual child. There are age regressors who are 100% adults outside of their regression, and are capable of working, having their own children, and have general adult responsibility. While others are possibly mentally/physically disabled, and stay 24/7 or majority of the time in a regressed headspace who are children seeking to gain a childhood.
