Is it normal to be still living with my mom at this age?

Well... why isn't there anything you can do about it? Can you not find a job and move out?

You have to do what you can to survive.

Uhhh...
Not normal... what are you trying?

More common nowadays, but you should be working or finding income, and so helping with the bills would be appreciated.

As long as you two get on OK I don't see any problem.

Unless you've got a mental illness, like social anxiety, crippling depression or any other illness, not necessarily mental, that prevents you from living alone, it's normal.

I'm 23 and still live at home but I have my own issues to deal with and really, putting me in a house/apartment on my own... nah, not a good idea :P

Perfectly normal if you don't want to move out or leave your mum by herself. Who's to say its not normal?

I'm 24 and still live with my family. We sometimes joke that we're more like roommates that just happen to be a family - everyone (even parents) live their own life with other partners and well, it's normal to me. :)

As long as you're both happy, there is really no problem. Potential significant others might not see it as a positive though.
