i went to community college, worked for a year, went to a 4 year university, took a break for my mental health and worked for a year, finished school, was unemployed for a year, now i finally have a big girl job at 26 and i still feel like a child. it's whatever don't worry about it just do your thing. don't force yourself to do stuff you're not ready for and don't hold yourself back if you're ready to move on. Just do your thang

I just didn’t take the straight route. I dropped out of college twice, and graduated when I was 25. Then took years off before going to grad school. Even then, it was years of trying things before I found my niche. I’m now 34 and solid in my career.
Honestly, life is long and it makes total sense to me to want to shift when you are more sure of who you are. Go for it! Why not! Take a crazy chance!

As an 18 year old girl, I don't really see 25 as weird and old. There's probably less of a gap than you think there is. If you're chatty and friendly there shouldn't be any issues. Ask about more than just college or sports. You've got this!

I was 27 when I did, You are ok, do the things you need to go in that direction, but don't be hard on yourself, it will happen when you are ready. Enjoy the time with your family (if you like them) because when you are on your own you may miss it. Good luck.

i'm not sure if you consider more recent classics but as a lit major here are some of my faves that could be considered classics: wuthering heights, pride and prejudice, song of solomon, the crying of lot 49, slaughterhouse five, 1984, hamlet, macbeth, and it's not a novel but the collected short stories of ernest hemingway... many of them are bangers. i'm not a hemingway novel fan but his short stories are often so good

i am trying to be better about just letting myself exist without masking but i've been masking so much my whole life that i kind of don't even know who i am if i'm not masking. but i try to stay chill about it and just know that i am who i am and I AM like idk... i recently started dancing when i'm alone in a way that is kind of more like stimming but i just move my body how it wants to move and that is something that a few years ago i never would have allowed myself to do. it's a process i guess to become more comfortable with just existing as you are. david byrne inspired me a lot to just let myself be myself and not worry too much about the autism bc ppl are either gonna get you or theyre not
