Really? I always clocked it as grooming bullshit.
Being mature for your age is a marker of childhood trauma.
It took me 10 years to figure out I wasn’t mature. I was just masking some blend of anxiety disorder and aspergers because I learn that if you share your stong emotions you get put in a padded room. It was the 90s. It’s happens.
I would say I wish my dad believed in therapy and medication but I know I would have just told the doctors what they wanted to hear anyway 🤷
Yup, when you don’t have a functional parent or adult around you learn to do a lot on your own.
Then when you’re actually an adult you appear weird to everyone because you’re so independent it’s off-putting to people who grew up with social support.
You also get to develop some trust issues because the people who are typically there to rely on as a child were unreliable.
But everyone comes out the other end different and you realize how important those formative years are.
Thats be me!
Though mine wasn’t bad compared to others. Also I just love old thing so thats how I’ve always been .
Although I find old things offer an escape. So thats why I like them.
I’m not sure that’s much of a surprise
Old soul just means you’ve had to come back more than most. Not a compliment.
My Physical Age: 36
My Soul Age: 98 and about 2 days away from a fatal aneurysm.
When it was said to me I always felt like it meant, “wow, you’ve already identified that [this thing adults do] is a bunch of bullshit”
Sure it wasn’t because you already had to deal with too much abuse and shit?
Why do you think my serotonin receptors died?
What’s Serotonin?
It was a drug people did in the 90s.
The thing i have to take a pill to have enough of, literally taking fucking happy pills because i grew wise to the world at the age of 6…
Or dopamine, or norepinephrine lol. I’m trying to fix mine but I think all 3 were almost on E
