I don't see a problem with it to b honest if that's what helps u sleep, feel secure, or comfortable at night go ahead sleep with it. I mean do what u have been doing if u don't want ur friends knowing about it I'm 18 and I still sleep with one of mine every so often I don't see an issue with it. I'm just doing what makes me sleep best but if it's a real issue u think u could start by putting it somewhere that's kinda hard for u to reach like in a box up in ur closet or u could sleep with it a few times a week and taking days away each week so u finally get where u don't feel u need it or replace it with a blanket.
I know exactly how you feel, I had a stuffed dog I used to sleep with (I called him Snuffee). Around the age of ten, they just took Snuffee away. That caused problems for me and I had mood swings for a while. They gave me Snuffee back, and we slowly worked off of it. Limit your time with the stuffed animal, like sleep with it every other night for a couple weeks. Then do every two nights, then three. You will find you will not need it anymore, and break the habit. Take it slow, or you will eventually jump back to the animal.
I'm 21 and still sleep with my baby blanket that I've had since the day I was born. I don't chew on it anymore lol, but it psychologically gives me security when I sleep. I even take it to sleepovers because most of my friends have blankets and stuffed animals too
You're not as weird as you think you are, and sleeping with your stuffed Barney isn't anything to be ashamed of or a turnoff. It just means you're a sentimental person
i mean... just stop. but like, shit, that kind of habit isn't harmful or whatever. so if you really want to then just throw it in the closet or something but if you dont actually want to stop, then its not like you have to.
Well you could throw it away :/
I'm not exactly proud of it, but I actually have a shelf above my bed that has a bunch of beanie babies and other stuffed animals on it. It was kinda like a collection for me and my mom bought them all for me so I don't don't really plan on getting rid of them. I don't sleep with them tho.
Well if just stopping won't work, try maybe first to replace it by a tiny pillow or so

I'm 21 and I still sleep with my childhood teddy bear - even when my boyfriend sleeps over. There's nothing wrong with it. But if you really want to stop, you could try positioning your pillow so that you can wrap your arms around it.
I have a cousin that is 28 years old and sleeps with stuff animals dude your fine.
I'm 26 and sleep with a giant teddy bear. what's the big deal?
Just hide it somewhere or throw it out? Not that complicated.
Burn your stuff animal, locked it up somewhere else, or give it away. Cuddle with an extra pillow instead of a stuffed animal.
Think of it like a pet but cleaner and you don't have to feed it. It's ok.
I sleep with one too, not because I feel I have to, I just like to cuddle with it at night lol
Just put it in the wardrobe or in a draw or in another room. Basically just stop.
dress it up like a girl and tell your friends it is a sex toy in order to seem more manly.
