Day 24- Why I have Dylan

Dylan if you don’t know is my silicone baby boy, I treat him like a real baby, feed, change and cuddle him.

I’ve had a reborn doll since I got my first payment for work, I guess about 9 years ago. As soon as I could work at 15 I did. But now I have Dylan I got him a few months ago. I’ve completely feel in love with him.

I love him so much, he gives me comfort, confidence and love.

I’m a very anxious person and Dylan calms me just by cuddling. He gives me the confidence to go out in public, this is difficult due to my mental illnesses. And I feel love from him.

I have him because I’ve always wanted a baby but I don’t think I will cope with a real baby due to my illnesses and medication. He has no needs and he doesn’t rely on me to live, but I still get the love from him and comfort of a baby.

I also lost my brother to a miscarriage and I feel responsible for his death, I think by having Dylan it gives me some comfort and feel closer to my brother.

This is Dylan.

“I have him because I’ve always wanted a baby but I don’t think I will cope with a real baby due to my illnesses and medication.

I UNDERSTAND THE FEELINGS YOU FEEL, NOT WANTING TO LEAVE THE HOUSE, ETC… AND FIND IT AMAZING AND VERY INTERESTING THAT HE GIVES YOU CONFIDENCE. I WISH YOU ALL THE BEST AND WILL BE FOLLOWING YOUR STORY.

I just ordered my first reborn doll and can’t wait to get her! I want one for many of the same reasons you mentioned. I also suffer from several mental and physical conditions and wouldn’t want to pass those genes on to a real child or chance not being able to take good care of a kid.
