I'm 22 soon and feel shackled by my family. I have little autonomy; they treat me like a child and demean/mock me when I try to act adult, they're overbearing and don't even let me order packages without wanting to know what it, access my own savings account or let me go to the cinema myself. I know they mean no harm and I am incredibly grateful having such loving parents but I don't feel like my own person. I am a clumsy spergy retard and do often fail at basic things so I get why I'm viewed this way but I long to feel like I'm on the same playing field as everyone else for once.I've never been able to do 'adult' things like wear clothes that aren't the same basic shirts/jeans I'd wear as a kid because I feel so embarrassed as they view me like a child and talk behind my back, or having to hide when I see my only friend because my mum makes a big deal out of it and makes me feel wrong for acting adult, like I'm an annoying younger sibling hanging out with older people I'm not supposed to be. I am incredibly stunted compared to others my age and I feel so upset and angry that my youth is passing me by and I've never had the chance to become a new person or feel the freedom of adulthood. I really doubt I will (or even can) break free of this but don't know how to accept that I won't live the full life I wanted. I've got no money to move out and my parents are divorced now, my mum gets very lonely and always wants me around hers and my dad will be alone if I don't spend time with him. I don't hate my life but I lament the freedom and ability to become someone new like others my age. I'm still expected to work and pay rent so it feels like I have none of the benefits of adulthood or childhood.
Its quite natural to live with your parents to save money. Most people do so in their 20s.Also don't listen to anyone trying to separate you from your family. They're cultists
>>34443909You have freedom in every way that matters. Your circumstances can't force you to be less honest, less caring, or less humble. A truly fulfilled life is only concerned with one thing: moral character. As long as you have that, and focus on maintaining and perfecting it, then you aren't missing out on anything. Other people may look like they're living exciting lives, but there's no satisfaction or fulfillment at the end of that road. There's only regret, exhaustion and addiction.
>>34443909My parents are similar. As long as they're nosy just out of curiosity and not to be controlling, then it's meant in a good way. Order weird things to your friends' houses so you don't have to deal with snooping. Make time for yourself, either with friends or alone, even if you lie and say you're with someone to shut them up. Nothing wrong with going for a walk or exploring coffehouses on your own. It'll grant you the freedom away from their supervision to start to build your own person beyond your family persona.
