birthday, growing up...still a kid?
Hey guys. Today is my birthday and I turn 18. While there are girls dying to get older im not. I just wish I could turn back time. Like I still feel like such a kid. And I love it. So growing up is being very difficult for me. I currently feel depressed. Everyone is like oh ur old now or ur a young lady. I don't know. I just wish I was still 16 or 15. I mean I feel like I am. Its so unreal to me. So I guess there's nothing to ask for advice about. I just felt like writing my thoughts. But if you have advice or anything feel free. Thanks a lot. Btw...I really do hate growing up and CHANGE. *sigh*

Getting older is inevitable, but growing up is optional. Just remember that.
However, I see nothing wrong with growing older. While you want to hang on to your youth, being an adult can be lots of fun too. :) I don't think you should try so hard to remain young. You still are young, just with a little more responsibility & freedom. There's nothing wrong with that.
Don't be afraid to become an adult. Embrace it, because it brings a lot of good things. :)

Your age is just a number, act how you want to act. Don't get down about growing up.

You are new to being an adult so naturally you are apprehensive. If you weren't I would be scared. What you need to realize is that despite the age that you are still you and always will be. You'll acquire more maturity, responsibility etc. but the core of who you are never changes.
It's easy to want to cling onto childhood memories or pleasant ones and not move forward. But move forward you must. There will be tons of opportunities to make even better ones. Instead of feeling depressed embrace it and look at it as the whole world being open to you with exciting new things to enjoy and discover. You'll be fine. Trust me.

hey there, =)
I know what you mean,and your definately not alone in feeling like this many people do.
they find it hard to deal with getting older and change.
but honestly the best advice I can give you is to just not let it get you down.
don't spend your life wishing you were 15/16 again your still really young,live it to the full without worrying about being older and growing up you still have the memories of all those times to look back on and so much more to make.
think of all the time youve got ahead.
it just something we all have to bring ourselves to accept and it will get easier once you start to do that.
just try to forget about it and have fun.
nothing ever stays the same and things change all the time sometimes its great,sometimes it sucks but it happens whether we like it or not,just try think how boring would life be if everything remained exactly the same and you stayed the same age forever for example,youd never get older and have new expieriences.
you just need to look at it in a different perspective :)
I hope I helped in someway and that you start feeling better about this
