You are definitely not alone, but it isn't me right now. I'm not afraid of growing up - to me it feels like breaking all the shackles that tie me down. My therapist has helped me with "boundary" issues - acting grownup and adult-to-adult with both my friends and family. It means that I do not have to please everyone. I can do my own thing and that is okay. Everyone can just deal with it - they're all big girls and boys too. I don't have to try to make everything better and be a constant mediator for everyone. I can breathe.
