Afraid of Being an Adult

  Author: 56651  Category:(General Advice) Created:(5/29/2003 4:54:00 PM)
This post has been Viewed (1335 times)

i'm 23 years old and i'm scared of doing things on my own, primarily, because i've been in a small school my whole life. i just feel like i'll fail again. i feel like if i become independent and make friends to rely on and to live my life with, they will not be smart enough to survive what happens with life and my life will come crashing with theirs. i just feel so scared being alone and doing my own thing. things are changing slowly and i want them to happen. I figure i have to do them myself, because i don't want to be pushed by other people. my mom's telling me to grow up, because she's getting old, and i feel like it's pushing me to go farther in life. i just feel scared of being alone and living my own life. what should i do? i imagine myself lost and with no one around to help me. usually this image is in a mall when i'm freaking about about this. why do things happen so slow in life. ALSO, i'm just wondering why it seems like life changes in a flash for the bad sometimes. like you run into the wrong types of people.

Instead of dwelling on the "What if's?" Try thinking of the "Why Not"?. Don't let FEAR control your life. Sit down and list WHAT you want; Set some goals; make a PLAN, and set about MAKING IT A REALITY.

Date: 5/29/2003 9:33:00 PM  From Authorid: 31255    Moving out doesn't mean you can't call your mom whenever things happen. You can still rely on your parents, but also become a stronger person and start to take on adult responsibilities. Yes, moving out for the first time might suck, heck mine did (and I was only 18). But you become a better person and learn what you will and will not tolerate and how to move on with your life. You will probably actually enjoy it after the first few months. I can't think of anyone who hasn't enjoyed their own independence and their new sense of freedom. And I agree with what Thinker said.

Date: 5/30/2003 12:15:00 PM  From Authorid: 53052    i moved out at 19 and in with my BFf 15+ hours away from my home...i brought everything of mine and i honestly would enver go back(i'm now 21 and we just recently bought a condo) we now have a roomate who is 25 years old and he calls his mother on a daily basis(or she calls him) they spend atleast one afternoon together a week(going out for coffee or something)he is indepentant but he still hasen't left behind his mom....he still hasen't fuly grown up.. but your not expected to become an adult over night you don't have to give up your childhood to be on your own.. heck i still have my collection of eeyores and my baby blanky.. i still act like a kid sometimes... i'm not giving up my freenatured childhood but i'm mixing it with responsabilities  
Date: 5/30/2003 8:55:00 PM  From Authorid: 62146    To me this fear of being an adult can come from the fact that you feel like your going to screw up and low conferdence and trust. You must realize what your good at and you won't feel as though your going to screaw up and also your conferdence and trust will go up. Just chill and enjoy being an adult. Think positive is my point here. And may many great things happen to you in life.
