I do not know if this is the right place but I would like to ask, does anyone have habits like a Baby

I have one that is I like sucking a Dummy, I like to sleep with it, I also sometimes like to during day or when i am not feeling so good.

I have had this for a long time and want to know if anyone else has this habit or anything else

I have read about some other adults who have this.  Lots of people soothe themselves orally.  Adults usually find more adult like ways like chewing gum, s ucking on a lollipop and in fact, they make sensory tools for oral soothing that are these hard rubber things in the shape of a P or an O or a T, they can be smooth or textured.  Some vibrate.  You can get anything like that at a sensory products website store.  S ucking on a hard piece of candy as well.  These are just ideas to still soothe orally without using a dummy if you would like to discontinue that.  But it's NOT unusual to find comfort in this type of mouth activity.
