In 6 days I will be 18
But why do I feel like I haven't learned anything?
I don't know how to cook
Take care of myself
Be proud of who I am
I don't even know how to be loved
So why is adulthood so soon?
I still feel like I am kid.
I can't even make disicions for myself
Or speak my own mind.
I can't even pick the tatto I want
Or if I even want it.
I can't control my emotions.
I sometimes feel like I am a 5 year old stuck into an 18- years old body, not knowing what to do, how to do it, or how to react in anything.
I don't want to be 18, but at the same time I do.
I am confused over every single thing
I guess I am just lost.
But why, just why is the number 18 accociated with becoming an adult?
I just wish it could be at least 20.

Yeah I mean, I just turned 18 this year and felt almost the same. All the things related to turning 18 and being already an adult is just not realistic nowadays, at least for me, being an adult are not the typical things that people just expect you to make or to achieve (like working, college, marriage, etc), those are just things that commonly were related to being an adult literally Centuries ago, so, my Advice for you is living your life on your own conditions, being happy with the way you are and ing that you don't have you fulfill anyone's expectations about what you should or shouldn't do.
thank you <33
Being confused and lost is one of the beauties of life. If everything was easy and known, nothing would be challenging anymore. The only real thing that comes with being an adult is privileges. You can do this now, you can get that now. But who you are doesn’t have to change, because who you are isn’t a number. You are human, and that’s it. :heart:
thank you? <3
