Serious Mentally do you feel like a child? I absolutely feel like a child, an overgrown man-baby struggling to get validation like a forlorn child.

My developmental needs went unmet for decades causing me to become mentally stunted. I feel like a child seeking copious amounts of attention and validation from online friends. Its like an addiction which only grants me some temporary reprieve from my emptiness.

Yea, I genuinely feel like I’m still a child. Many people I know have had normal relationships with friends and romantic partners throughout their lives, which helped them grow into well-rounded adults. Their experiences shaped them, giving them a sense of maturity that feels out of reach to me.

I have always been alone, without friends or significant others, I developed differently, isolated and still alone to this day. It feels like I am caught in a limbo between childhood and adulthood.

I feel like im every age at the same time

seeking copious amounts of attention

I was like that around 3 years ago and I'm glad I'm no longer as desperate.

I'm still a manchild, but in other ways.

I have had almost the exact same trajectory. Our needs have gone unmet for so long that we've become permanently psychologically disfigured and stunted.

I do feel like I'm missing a lot of incentives other adults have, like wanting to stand on your own two legs for example. I genuinely fail to understand how that's a goal in its own right. To not be dependent on unreliable others or to not inconvenience others? Sure, I get that, but "I wanna do it on my own because I'm a big boy/girl now"? Nah, don't get it. Where do normies get their kicks from man?

 

[Sonicfancel]

Yes. Without friends, gf and money there is nothing opposite about being a adult.

I'm 44 but I'll forever be stuck socially at 15. One girl could have changed that.

I haven't aged mentally since I was 15 years old
