A Child in an Adult's Body

SherlockHomeless SherlockHomeless 2025-06-09 15:13:59 About question
Am I the only one with this problem?

I always feel like a child whenever I read peoples conversations in groupchats or online chatrooms. The person I'm talking to might even be younger than me and I'll still feel like a child.

Whenever I interact with anyone the same age as I, there's always this invisible gap between us. Idk I feel like an alien and an impostor for someone my age. Im not that lacking knowledge. The way I speak and act just feels so OOC. My peers dont even do that ☠

Idk anymore. Anyways share yall thoughts on this or maybe an experience that made you feel like "A child in an adult's body"

Ur not required to be over 18 to answer this question btw. Im just using the sentence as an expression when u feel like ur mental age doesn't match with ur body.

I am over 20 but I look like I am under 18. For some reason they always ask for ID in certain places. Annoying.

this is honestly so real for me but tbf part of the issue is that ive always been younger than classmates and friends, having a late birthday is lowk a curse
I was 17 with 18-20 yr old friends but we were in the same school grade/uni year
Also i lowk suspect im neurodivergent in some way but i havent gotten evaluated,
Difficulty with social cues,and socializing in general can make u feel like this <//3
