Growing up
How do you feel about your life,my 25 and older fellows?
I am having a reflection at 31/12/2019.
I am a 25 year-old girl and seemingly at an important phrase of my life. I am just on the way to realize how I grow up depending on my family. Like it’s the norm here to be like that, listen to older people, to fit in and follow the footsteps of whoever is “having a successful life”. I decide to move out, to stay away from my parent’s control. (Yes in other’ eyes, I am airheaded and rebellous). I think I’ve tried my best in my life so far but now I feel lonely and lacking.
I do want to talk it slow and believe in myself, and be crazy as how I am and let my parents realize they abuse me. I hope it is not too much to ask. Sometimes I just want to go into the forest hahaa.
If you answer my question, pls do it with respect and personal approach. ^^ Happy new year.
I'm 23 yo and I also feel I've been controlled my entire life by my family because it's what people is used to here. I think you should be proud of yourself if you left your house and if you still haven't I hope for your success... I dream of doing it one day and feel independent OwO good luck

That is a really bold move and i really respect you for that.
I am a 28 year old young lady who has yet to achieve anything. The only thing I that once brought me joy is my Uni degree but now its been gathering dust for the past four years. I am somewhat embarrassed to say I am still dependent on my mother. I feel stuck, anxious, frustrated and the......

So much older than you guys, but don’t think I can be of much help. None of you sound as though you’re from America. Here parents eagerly boot their kids out at 18. There isn’t the dependency on family that there is in other countries. If you’re still living with parents post college age, you’re perceived as a loser. On the flip side when......

Maybe the feelings of loneliness and lacking come from going your own way without being able to be in a good place with your family? I see you say you have felt your parents abused you, so this may be difficult, but try to share those feelings without heat or anger. A few years after I moved from home I went back for a visit and my parents and I we......

I can relate although I'm just midway my teenage life (´∀｀)♡ But my mind matures faster than my friends and simply just around everyone and sometimes it always scares me because I think I won't fit in with the others because of the way my mind thinks and how I'm unimaginably sensitive when it comes to small thing that could hurt me emotional......
