It's been 19 yrs: That's a long time to be depressed over becoming an adult. I think you might benefit from speaking with a therapist. Growing up is part of life. It comes with both responsibilities and priveledges. As far as i know we may not get a 2nd chance, so i encourage people to live life to the fullest at all stages of life. Reach for your dreams and make the most of your life for the rest of your life.
