What is an infantile person?
The term "infantility" is mainly used to describe the psychological characteristics of the behavior of children, but it is not uncommon for the term to be used in relation to adults to describe their behavior that has a childlike quality or character. A person may act childish, moody, inconsistent, confused, emotionally dependent on others, and much more. Let's take a closer look at the reasons why this happens.
Psychological infantilism is the cause of childish behavior in adults
Psychological infantilism gives rise to a kind of paradox, the consequences of which are expressed in the form of childish behavior in an adult. The causes of infantilism are a violation of the child’s mental adaptation. As a rule, he deeply experienced violations, which subsequently led to abnormal development of the psyche.
The first reason lies in biological aspects. About a month after the baby is born, the hormone production phase begins. If during this period a child encounters drama, negative emotions and stress in his life, this can greatly affect his mental state. From 13 to 61 years of age, when growth hormones are produced, the child is at high risk of developing anxiety and obsessive thoughts. It is important to realize that after the child was born, a completely different life began, so at every stage it is important
An infantile person is frivolous and lives for pleasure, without thinking about the consequences of his actions. The benefits of infantile behavior include enjoying life and experiencing stressful situations more emotionally. If you look at the list of psychophysical qualities, it includes good reaction speed, high endurance, flexibility of thinking, curiosity for everything new. A psychophysical infantile is a person who enjoys life, getting pleasure from the simplest things. His behavior is the same as that of children: he loves to play, fantasize, draw and dream about something. He does not know how to manage his emotions, especially anger, and is easily offended by others.
