Does anyone here suck their thumb?

Well I do and I love it some times I do not even know that I am doing it and people see me

I have always had my thumb in my mouth since nursery school & it da only babyish my parants knew about . except for some hidden diapers my mom sometimes find. best thing about a thumb it always wif ya & cant loose it & great for dipping into things such as chocolate 😃. BTW im 54 Y/O & happy to see others my age like der thumbs too

I was a thumb sucker until my early teens. As the yrs passed I would regress back to my thumb if I had a bad day. I am now 50 and find great comfort in doing so. It calms me at bed time while I cuddle my stuffie, Mr Bear. Sometimes I use my pretty pink or purple paci 😃

I can't suck my thumb anymore. I dunno why, it just feels weird. I still bite it though. I like a paci though. Paci is fun

I do, when I can not find my Nuk size 5 pacifier.

I also suck my thumb when my wife calls me a 2 year old, or when she tells me she is going to spank me.

She gets very mad when I do this.

Funny how this thread came up again. last weekend my daddy was home. he said he heard me sucking my thumb in my room. true be told i don't remember doing it, i sleep with a pacifier so im surprised that i was sucking my thumb. but after he point out my thumb and how wrinkled and white it was i guess i did. just be yourself and and enjoy being a baby. i do!!!

With thumb in mouth yeth!!

YES I love to suck my thumb ! I have done that since I was a little boy . I really got into sucking my thumb . When I was put back into diapers every night for bed wetting at age 7 to 12. So I love to still put my thumb in my mouth an SUCK ON IT !

I did sometimes before I finally bought a Nuk 5 pacifier.

I have always sucked my thumb I'm in my twenty's and still do

Suck when tired, sad or want a cuddle, also have a dummy for naps and daddy time

I suck my thumb when I'm

Scared knowing I've done wrong when tired and having cuddles

I don't really suck my thumb due to braces it hurts a little but I learned if I wrap my hoodie around it and kinda just knaw at it I'll stay like that until someone pulls it from my mouth

No!

I do not suck my thumb but I do enjoy sucking my paci.

Sucking my thumb soothes me especially when I don't have my paci around to suckle on.

Sometimes I suck my thumb during diaper changes or naps. I usually use my pacifier.

I do and have all my life. It's affected my bite and no orthodontist would use braces until I stop but I gave up trying to stop years ago and actually don't mind since my teeth make my thumb more "fitted" and my habit totally comfortable. I usually don't do it in public but for when I drive and every girlfriend I've ever had was OK with it. In fact, one of my previous girlfriends sucked her thumb too! 😃

I think that if thumb sucking among adults was socially acceptable there'd be a lot less alternatives like smoking, overeating and more.

I figure, why ever stop a habit that's free, legal, quiet, non-intrusive, without calories or drugs, instantly calming, aids sleep and concentration and more, even if my teeth stick out.

Only recently have I started using a pacifier due to its benefits when hooked up to a nasal pillow CPAP unit. But that's only during sleep.

Lifelong thumbsucker here. My comfort and helps me sleep. Never stop. Sure my teeth might be messed up. It's okay

Not much of a thumbsucker, but have a time or two during a diaper change. I prefer to use a pacifire.

I suck my thumb when my pacifier is not near, like when out of the house & my wife tells me she is going to spank me!

No, but....

When I was in my twenties I knew about Kink and bdsm, and lots of other things. But one day, I saw this guy, this man. He was wearing tweed 3 piece suit. Had a leather briefcase, seemed to have lots of other paperwork with him. He was also sucking on a pipe, or just the mouth piece of the pipe, it was long ago so I don't exactly remember. He wasn't smoking, just sucking. A definite oral fixation. Note, there was no internet back then, no way for me to research past just Freud's theory on oral fixation. He looked to me to be a professor at a university.

I thought it a bit odd, not because of the unlit pipe, but when we entered the train, he stuck his thumb into his mouth and full on suck. His fully bearded face took on a very different look. Almost juvenile. I was conflicted.

Now I know what it was, or at least I am totally assuming he was an adult baby (or tendencies). The first I ever saw so openly. This was in 1983 or so.

I am more or less a pacifier sucker sometimes i suck my thumb but pacifier or bottle for me is preferred

I normally don't use a pacifier, but my wife will sometimes have me use one when she is punishing me. That way she didn't have to listen to me cry out with each swat she administers. For severe punishments (using the switch etc.) she will put a ball gag on me.

Before I even realized I had an ab side I'd find my self sucking my thumb when I was nervous.. the first Daddy I had sort of tried to get me away from doing that .. but now on occasion when I have been stressed I will suck ,you thumb to call asleep like it more than a paci

Yes as a matter of fact this tends to happen when I get really stressed out or scared about something usually during my flashbacks and it is a response that is automatically triggered by my brain, I have a pacifier and wear diapers virtually all of the time, I suffer from ptsd and depression so sometimes I just want to be a baby or toddler again.

I also like hugging my giant teddybear as it gives me a sence of being cared I used to have a dog but she died 14 years ago in 2006, I will get myself a new one soon as I need a service dog for my Autisum.

Yours sincerly

Yes I'm a little ashamed to admit it but I do. I have sucked my thumb all my life it was always a comfort for me, my Mom when I was younger tried to stop me by putting this stuff called thumb on my thumb it tasted kind of hot in my mouth but I still continued to suck my thumb. Now I don't suck my thumb but I like to hold the nice soft blanket up to my nose just like when I use to suck my thumb I still do it as a comfort when I'm stressed out or depressed, I kind of like to retreat to when I was a little girl again.

It's always a habit that I haven't been able to completely get ride of

I was always discouraged from sucking my thumb even as a baby because my mother didn't want my teeth to grow in crooked. She insisted on my using a pacifier because it was safer (generally speaking.) When I became incontinent and started needing to wear diapers again, my aunt who was taking care of me at the time, starting giving me a pacifier to calm me while she would change me. It helped, believe or not and now I am hooked once again.

I don't suck my thumb; but, as a child I sucked my thumb to an older age than most kids. However, I did not suck my thumb in front of others for fear of ricicule. I was 10 years old and home watching TV. A very good friend came over and my mom told him where I was. I didn't know he was in the house; and, when he came into the same room there was no hiding my thumb sucking. I was embarrassed to hell and never again sucked my thumb.
