Adult pacifier (for anxiety/oral fixation/quitting smoking/overeating/AB relationships)

"During the oral stage, the infant's primary source of interaction occurs through the mouth, so the rooting and sucking reflex is especially important. The mouth is vital for eating, and the infant derives pleasure from oral stimulation through gratifying activities such as tasting and sucking. Because the infant is entirely dependent upon caretakers (who are responsible for feeding the child), the infant also develops a sense of trust and comfort through this oral stimulation.

The primary conflict at this stage is the weaning process--the child must become less dependent upon caretakers. If fixation occurs at this stage, Freud believed the individual would have issues with dependency or aggression. Oral fixation can result in problems with drinking, eating, smoking, or nail biting."

A pacifier is a great way to try to break worse habits such as nail biting, lip chewing, or other anxiety relieving tactics. Even some eating habits if you are TRYING to lose weight since sometimes putting food in the mouth can be related to an oral fixation(that's okay though, no shame allowed here!), trying to stop smoking,etc. Of course this is not the best way to cope, but no one is perfect and it's better than chewing your lip and checks off and smoking disgusting cancer causing cigs. There is also use for an adult pacifier during adult baby (AB) relationships, but that is a different post (check in the alt. sex category!) You can even use it to practice sucking.... ;)
