Littlespace is a mindset in which an adult relaxes into a state of carefree, responsibility-free safety. It may be a developed time in which an adult relives childhood memories, scenarios, or desires that were unachievable in their adolescence. An adult in littlespace may involve another adult referred to as a caregiver, engage in activities viewed as childish, and some may even participate in adult sexual interaction during their time in littlespace. While in littlespace, the adult is usually, but not always, referred to as an adult baby, little, or middle. A standard that all people interacting and involved in this type of scene is that they are all of legal adult age.

littlespace, which is NOT the same as DDLG (daddy dom, little girl which is a kink/fetish) littlespace is a coping mechanism, whether it's coping from childhood trauma, the world or something else, though it is usually childhood or a lack of a childhood and is not always a choice

the mindset many littles go into when they're in a trusted, comfortable environment; usually around their dom, family, or close friends
namjoon sits next to jeongguk on the couch and looks over at taehyung, who's sitting on the floor while drawing random shapes with crayons.
NAMJOON: jeongguk, what's been up with taehyung lately?
JEONGGUK: he's just been in littlespace a lot lately; he's really comfortable with all of you so i'm not as surprised
TAEHYUNG: daddy! daddy look!
JEONGGUK: what is it angel?
TAEHYUNG: it's you 'n me with our hyungs!

It is a mindset where an adolescent (mostly from 12 up) falls into (accidental or purposely) to escape from a mental illness or they fall into it because of childhood trauma.
The little can sometimes watch a show for children or something that soothes them. They also act like a child and they can spell a lot of things wrong (depending on what age they’re most like in littlespace)

Person 1- Look, that person is acting like a child, that’s so lame
Person 2- no, it’s not, that person obviously slipped into littlespace and now cannot control how they act
Person 1- woah, that’s so hot
Person 2- please don’t sexualise it as it may be a coping mechanism for that person

Person 2- no it's not hot, she might use it to cope
Person 2- no it's not hot, she might use it to cope
