Hello, tobecontinued! I have definitely experienced the same growing up. It can be really challenging to take on adulthood, but it is also a wonderful opportunity to learn about ourselves- who we are, what we like, what we don't like, what we can do, etc. If you ever want to chat about this, feel free to message me!

I'm twenty and this whole being an adult thing has me a little off balance haha:) So I know how you feel! I'm a listener on here if you ever want to talk:)

@tobecontinued Let me tell you a little secret. All adults are just big kids. :)

Growing up into adulthood in a hurry is over rated! It's way too much all at once, sometimes.

I am 22 years old, I have never worked and I am finishing my college. Soon I will be unemployed and still live with my parents.

I already tried to work once, but I did not last more than a month, because of my social anxiety, I freaked out.

I can not leave the house to do basic things, so I have no idea about being an adult.

@FreedomHawk wow I'm a literally the same as you. My first experience with working was horrific, I felt sick with anxiety most days, one day I literally didn't show up to work. I was so depressed I couldn't. Working and having social anxiety is just impossible it seems.

@FreedomHawk and I'm in the same boat with not leaving the house much. Actually right now I'm having a freak out over going into town for my hair appointment. I keep thinking about how I have to talk to the hairdresser and be around crowds of people on public transport. I'm actually not sure if I'll go. This is just a normal day in my life.

@Nairhair95 Our days are endless and invisible battles. I wish you all the luck in the world in your hair appointment.
