Is it weird to play with dolls and teddies at my age?
Okay so I’m a 20 year old girl and still like to play with dolls and teddies. I pretend that I live in a council flat with 3 kids. One invisible, one who’s a teddy and one who’s a baby doll. And I pretend to smoke with crayons have parties with invisible people in my invisible council flat. I do this when everyone goes out of my house, because I’d be traumatized if anyone found out I do this. I make fake baby food with flour and water and pretend to feed the doll. I’ve always wanted to have a baby since I was 12 and that’s when it all started to happen really. I just want to know why I do thiis and if I should be worried by it? Help.
Be careful that you get rid of any evidence after your “session” and that you take the necessary precautions to prevent anyone from seeing you from an open window or hearing what goes on through thin walls. But, I would say that it is weird at your age to do what ten year olds would do with them because this is not the norm. It does not mean that you are mentally retarded or need professional help. It is a form of enjoyment in your private moments and is best kept to yourself. And like you, I enjoy doing something when nobody is around as well: playing with and sitting on latex balloons and it certainly is not the norm, either.
