I feel young for my age (maturity)

Can anyone relate? I just feel I need to GROW UP. But don’t know how.

Not me. I am feeling older and older for my age. I felt young for my age 11 years ago pre sz and diabetes.

My body says I’m in in late 30s. My mind gives another story.

I feel like I’ve wasted all the things in my life I was supposed to savor and cherish
My sex drive isn’t great
I have the alcohol tolerance of a hippopotamus
After smoking cigs 12 years I can’t run it even jog (however I quit smoking 8 years ago)
When I was a teenager, I lived the party lifestyle and it’s kicking my butt nowadays in my mid 30s
Nothing is fun
My mood is a stable ‘content’ not happy or sad, just ‘existing’

However, I must say despite my setbacks I’m a great easy going person and I can take awesome care of myself

Don’t feel bad for feeling young and immature, life has a way of working things out :upside_down_face::slightly_smiling_face:

Seems to me all the people that are grown-up are people who tell others how to live their life and what’s wrong and right and tell them to do things all the time

Aah! Mismatch between chronological age and expected emotional maturity?

I’m kinda getting past that. For years though felt like a 12 year old mentally though. Just gotta roll with the punches/learn to take care of yourself best you can, find independence, pay bills, do activities you can, etc.

Everyone has a different walk of life.

And that’s okay.

My emotional intelligence, very little confidence in it. always getting mad that someone is pulling a power move on me. I’m impulsive with my ‘don’t trust’ disposition, trying to sense someone is giving me bs or covertly insulting me in front of complicit bystanders. and less confidence in my intelligence and knowledge.

everywhere I’m like an ignorant child and the dumbest person in the building. I look up words I think I know and discover I didn’t really know them. when not online to occupy myself I like to do literally nothing but lie down for 20 minutes. and when I actually do something useful I need someone to answer my questions so that I feel I’m doing it right.

I DO need to grow up and make big decisions and deal with the consequences of them like an adult.
