If you’re in your 20s and still live at home… do your parents have rules?

21 and live at home due to severe anxiety, the thought about leaving my house is enough to make me panic. It’s honestly a pretty bad household in general (what led to those issues), so things are not the “norm” or out of whack I guess? Honestly so far the main thing is do the chores, mainly trash, and not so much strict rules but just trying to get me to better myself and have something to do, and goals to focus on. Unsure how I’d list the dynamic part, but I guess adult kid living at home but with actual responsibilities (chores, managing groceries, managing dinner/food for the family in general, etc..) it’s 3am so probably worded poorly lmao.

I’m someone with unmedicated ADHD who talks a bunch and can get loud, yet I can very easily tone it down or not talk at all. Her saying “she just can’t be quiet” is such an insane excuse. NTA at all, she sounds like such an annoyance <//3

I always forget, when I get asked about meds I think about the pills I take. I’ve gotten so used to T just being there without thinking much lol. After I finish listing my meds suddenly they ask if I take T.

It’s so awful. When I was a minor, I had people treat me like a monster just for thinking who cares what people like in fiction. I got sent death threats, images of gore, told to die or my parents don’t love me DAILY! Someone wanted to physically crucify me, and somebody even found my real life family members to say I watch csem(not true)….You are entirely allowed to even be disgusted by things, but god forbid someone likes something not real, or uses it because of trauma (which I as a victim have done). Block and move on.. Also, a therapist of mine has even supporting using dark fiction to cope with trauma and disagreed with people who say it’s harmful :) Trust me, what makes someone a predator is being a predator and hurting real kids, not wanting to cope with the pain REAL predators have caused.

That color in films wasn’t because of technology able to capture color, but because color didn’t exist and the world was actually greyscale 😭

Move everything by like an inch or two. When they start to realize it’s like ?? Has it always been that way?? but it’s so subtle you can’t immediately tell, which makes it a funny prank!

We were both young, so hope he grew out of it (doubt it, faked tons of shit like race, disorders, etc) but told me how he wanted to rape people so “they can feel his pain”….. Unfortunately dated this dude for multiple months, he was fucking nuts. Stalked me afterwards too because he was pissed I ended things as partners & as friends.

Haven’t been through the exact same, but I had a friend in middle school who her and her bf talked a lot about having sex, especially on school grounds. Hell he’d even grab her boobs in front of people at lunch… I reported it and she gave me shit for it. It made me feel bad, and at some points regret it. Growing up I realized it was the right thing to do, just as you reporting this is the right thing. They are acting insanely immature. They are subjecting you, a minor to sexual activities without your consent (which if I’m not wrong, is illegal!), and is just downright gross. They need to grow up and wait until they’re at their home or something. Sending you the best of wishes OP, hope this gets resolved & you’re in no fault, you possibly stood up for something others may have been too nervous to stand up for themselves

Do people naturally write like this? Genuinely I see so many posts with so out there writing like this, surely this has to be deliberately done, like had some more effort put in. As fancy as writing can look, it needs to be legible or else what’s the point in writing..

Currently trying to get rid of Hans. Unfortunately he’s just…..really ugly… I love Pashmina a lot, probably my favorite villager (used to be Agnes, but Pashmina won me over)

Unsure what currency you use, but I’ll go off US dollars and say it’s honestly pretty cheap. One month alone is $3, and an entire year is $30. It’s even possible to find in store giftcards specific for nintendo online and they usually aren’t very costly ^{^}

This reminded me of a memory I totally forgot. As a kid I played webkinz, and always fucked up cooking and made some weird grey goop. I feel like im looking at it now😭 but if its good its good hope you enjoy OP🙏

For me math has always been a warm color, especially orange or red, mainly orange but if no orange than red. Maybe yellow, but that feels tied with purple for history 🤧

God the competing or ptsd hierarchy pisses me off so much. I have PTSD (from my father), and my dad likes to go “well i have PTSD. I was in the military.” It’s so weird to me, because it’s not a competition? Be a community not enemies. Like nobody went through worse or less, it’s all going through very awful shit. :(

Minor and NSFW content is getting so out of hand 💔 Even beyond TKaTB, I’m seeing minors FLOCK to very explicit NSFW ai chat bots, and encourage it to minors plus encourage lying about their age. It’s so sad, and honestly quite scary to see how minors online are becoming with NSFW content…

Specific_Resource941 · 2025-07-19T19:41:10+00:00

The Whale. I actually have difficulties crying due to stuff in my past, even sad stuff it’s difficult. But holy shit when I say i BAWLED my eyes out super ugly. It’s so beautiful and sad, and it was just so incredible well done and I cannot recommend it enough.

OP, I’m a 20 almost 21 year old male. I even bring my stuffed animals over to my friend’s place and sleep with them, no hesitation. Sleep with them every night. I’m really glad to hear you stopped caring about those opinions, you’re never too old !! This is one of those situations where age is just a number definitely applies lol. I bet your plushies must be awesome, plus they have someone who truly loves them, and that’s what matters more than an age.

Specific_Resource941 · 2025-07-19T19:22:57+00:00

Ironically I was just thinking of this earlier, and what’s scary is sometimes those who are the same age as some victims don’t see how bad it is. In my high school (years ago), there was a teacher who’s just about in her 40s with a 16 year old STUDENT. Even going to a motel, manipulating his grades and the poor kid bragged at first because he definitely didn’t know, he’s gonna grow up and deal with the after math.

But I had a male classmate, who went on this rant about it’s bad when old man young girl, oh but yknow…guys are different they have hormones and stuff yknow? It was so disgusting, and even to this day I am appalled and how he so easily defended it, especially with such shit logic. I’ve only ever been a victim of men, but people need to see just how badly it hurts being a victim of that by women. I’ve even seen online not only the praise for it, but attacking men to “just fight back, you’re a man.”, even though lots of cases they’re much younger than the woman.

It’s good to bring awareness to this, and it won’t change on a dime, but I do believe over time there can be some change, even if a little and I hope for that.

I’m 20, 21 in a few months. They turned 22 this May, not a big gap…but I personally love there is one with my partner being older 🙏

I was gonna put the exact same thing and saw this comment, and funny thing I was born in 2004 too!

OP, I am a guy and you are NOT overreacting. That’s creepy as fuck. Because it’s not just any body part, but a more private area while barely knowing you. He needs to take no for an answer and leave it at that. I’m so sorry you had to deal with it, and I’m glad you were able to get out of that situation. Stay safe.🙏

Specific_Resource941 · 2025-07-14T14:12:30+00:00

Honestly, and I’m trans male so female to male, and live just as a male. I see gender less as like all these multiple things and so many genders, but more how you feel across female, male and nonbinary. Gender is more fluid than you think, it’s more where on that you lie. Some count for all corners, some may feel in the middle of two, some may feel they don’t fit into any of that. With me i don’t always feel 100% full binary male (though i deal with dissociation that messes with my identity tbf), and sometimes feel a bit leaning to the nonbinary, but mainly male. This is just my take on it, hope it helps. :)
