I see what you mean, I act like this as well, always craving hugs and attention from my boyfriend and snuggling up with teddies for comfort, and the more undesirable aspects, like irrational shyness in unfamiliar situations, fear of strangers, and crying for the most ridiculous reasons, that I'm very ashamed of. I don't know whether for me it's to do with the fact that childhood is the last time I remember being happy. My problems began at the age of 12, so it was all taken away very suddely, so in a way I grew up too quickly, and at the same time didn't. Maybe you feel you have too much responsibility and worry so you use times when you act like a child to escape and be carefree for a while. It would definitely be worth discussing, these are just some of my theories. I wish you all the best with it.
