I'll be 22 in 2 days and I feel the same. I feel like a teenager.

The tax stuff is hard on purpose so that people hire accountants and stuff so do not feel bad about that. Same with cars.

Government does not want people self sufficient you must CONSOOM and contribute to the economy and studd.

Imagine if everyone was independent and could do all their complex taxes repair their car, there would be a lot less need for certain professions people would be poor or no job due to lack of demand and then less tax money for government they would need to do UBI or something.

Paying taxes from a regular job can be easy though idk where you live.
Idk how to drive either but I know some car problems.

Honestly I feel not ready or capable of being an adult since no friends no fun teen years no gf ever. I feel like a shell of a human sometimes.

Most people feel the same way before they've done these tasks. I was initially afraid of driving on the highway and couldn't understand how people did it without being nervous. But with experience it will begin to feel natural to do certain things. You can learn many of these "adult" skills with online resources. Unfortunately this doesn't apply to adult social skills. I tried for a year to talk to people and make friends with no progression.

That's nice I need to practice everyday but the person teaching me is a family friend and they aren't around everyday

Ropefuel for the social part tho
