Am I mentally retarded?

Question

I'm 19 years old, in few months I'm turning 20 years old but I don't feel like my age, I feel that I'm the same person I was when I was 17 years old. I never changed, I changed physically but mentally I still feel like a little kid.

I'm always living at home even though I'm graduating college this Oct. I don't like being away from my mom so that's why I want to live with my mom forever. Getting married scares me, that means that I'm going away from my mom which scares me like I'm dying.

Am I mentally retarded? all my friends act mature and some of them have kids but myself I feel like a little kid still

Answer 1

Not at all.as long as happy living with your parents your age won't matter to them

different person feels different at certain ages.

Don't worry about your friends and you will get you chance to have child.

You should hit 21 first and then you can go to bar and hand out with friends

I am still living with my parents

Answer 2

Is this a serious question?  you're obviously not mentally retarded - an extremely low number of people with down syndrome could write what you wrote above.  you might be a little bit immature, insecure, not well grounded, narcissistic..whatever....i don't know you...but you're not retarded.

Answer 3

yeah....    your retarded

Answer 4

No you're not at all mentally retarded.You're still in your teens and some people still feel that they have to be close to mom and dad and still feel like a kid.They still enjoy playing video games,they still enjoy going wayching the football game,they still enjoy hanging out with friends,they still like setting around eating junk food,and they still like playing basketball.Those are things that some people feel that they can't give up.In about a year or so,you'll become more mature.Maybe you're scared of getting married because you are scared of commitment.Maybe you like your freedom.Maybe you like your mom's cooking.Maybe you feel more secure around your mom which makes sense,there's nothing wrong with that.You don't have to have kids and get married just because your friends are.Maybe they're ready for it and maybe you aren't.You're still young.You don't have to grow up too fast but don't stay a kid forever either.Just try to be mature as you can be.Don't fall into peer pressure.Maybe you want a life of your own.Well it is your choice.I truly hope that I really helped you in some way or another or gave you some useful or helpful advice or something.So may GOD BLESS you!
