Which is the age I should be on this website, I was scared of change however I feel like I'm not yet worthy of the title adult even though I am 18. But I guess its cool that I can now drink some alcohol and get laid with a chick but I should now find a job.
I deleted the other post with the same name because I accidently double posted.
Oh cool is this somenormie?
Happy birthday!! 🎂🎆🎉🎊🎈🎁
Oh you're a Libra! That's a cardinal air sign, I'm a cardinal earth. I'm curious whet our signs say
You're finally official for the site 🎉
I mean to be fair you couldve been drinking and getting laid for the last couple years too
Happy birthday normie!
I felt like a fake adult for ages after I turned 18, it wears off in time.
Happy birthday! You can legally vote now, and voting is pretty rad so congrats
Honestly, don't stress over getting a job right away. Take your time and figure out the things in life that make you really happy. Our society is way too work obsessed and it's not healthy. Biologically you're actually still a kid until 20, anyway. You're now just a kid who can take care of themselves, basically. There's other productive things you can do instead of going to work right away. College and volunteering are good ways to find self-discovery and learn new skills. Whatever you do, just don't get into the "I have to work until my last breath" craze. That's a straight road into depression. You don't owe society work in order to deserve existing. We are human-beings, not human-doings.
Happy birthday!
My experience is that the big "milestone" ages like 18 and 21 (here in the US, you have to be 21 to drink) are never the life-changing events you expect them to be growing up. You're still the same person you went to bed as the night before when you were still 17.
To be honest, I don't think anyone really feels like a "real adult" at 18, or much different than they did at 17. I know I didn't. It was probably not until around 19 1/2 or 20 that things started to really change.
Even at 25, I still feel like a kid some ways, and it feels super weird to watch my peers get married and have kids, because it doesn't seem like we should be that old yet!
I do think getting a job and planning for a career are good moves to make, though!
