Q: You see I"m terrified to get older...does that fear ever go away? And i'm only 18 So this will be a fear forever?
A: It is 100% normal. The more older we get, the more we are expected to do. Pay bills, have family, hold a career down and usually college for a few years. It's really not fair the expectations that "adults" have to live up to. I mean, a couple years ago you were a careless high school student who got mad when your teacher pulled a pop quiz. Now your biggest concern is how are you going to pay for food this month. It really does not ever get any easier. I think that's why we have this fear... because inside we just know.
