[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why do you keep asking this question over and over?

Because, I feel like I've been finishing last my whole life, and I feel it's about time I was on even footing with others, even if it's only temporary. My entire life has been marked with failures, and it should be all too understandable that I want a break from it.

I didn't take Calculus until I was a senior in high school, while most of my friends took it as juniors.

I didn't graduate from college until I was 22, while most people I know graduated at 21.

I didn't move out until I was 28, while most people I know moved out between 18 and 24.

God forbid I'm not ready for my peers to start financially supporting my parents before me. I'm okay with having a few weaknesses, but this is where I'm drawing the line.[/quote]

The only thing that will help you is treatment for your anxiety disorder.

Nobody cares what year you took Calculus! It does not matter *at all*. It barely mattered 10 years ago.

What on earth do you mean "drawing the line"? What are you going to do, stomp your feet until people stop supporting their parents to spare your feelings?[/quote]
