And being honest, I'm not excited or happy. Most people would be thinking at all the possibilities that are now available to them, but truthfully I'm kind of restless, trying to find ways to occupy my mind knowing that I'm presently that much closer to when my existence will cease to be relevant. I'm worried, I feel depressed, I just don't know what to do right now.
Tell me Flood, how do you deal with getting older?

Play video games. You're never too old to play one. No seriously though, I don't know how I get settled into being a legal adult. I remember turning 18, how it was more stressful than it was exciting or happy. I eventually realized, and successfully argued to my parents, that I still have many years ahead of me, and I don't need to rush things. I'm still anxious about the future, but at least I have my parents off my back for the time being. Like another poster said, you shouldn't worry about what other people are doing in the same point in their own lives. Everyone has a different situation that isn't yours. Just worry about yourself. I'm not really sure what else to say.
