Anyway! There are a lot of reasons to still live at home as an adult, and it doesn’t mean you’ve “failed to launch” or that you’re not capable of being your own person or of having an adult life and adult relationships.
Whether you’re disabled, or you’re taking care of your elderly parents, or you struggle with chronic illness, or finances, or they do, or you just love your family and want to be close to them, these and many other reasons are valid and it’s no one’s business to comment on it like it’s a negative trait to still live with your family.
It can be very good actually, and/or necessary, and ultimately it’s personal and between you and ur family, not anyone else, and anyone unwilling to try to understand doesn’t have a space in your life and journey!
This is for people of any age, not just ppl in their early 20s!!!
[Drawing of a green plant in a blue pot saying “You spend so much time taking care of people, of pets, of plants, of everything. It’s good that you’re such a caring and helpful person, but remember to take care of yourself too. And remember that you’re allowed to need help too.” in a light blue speech bubble.

plot-twist: the small one could actually kick everyone’s ass
“I remembered once, in Japan, having been to see the Gold Pavilion Temple in Kyoto and being mildly surprised at quite how well it had weathered the passage of time since it was first built in the fourteenth century. I was told it hadn’t weathered well at all, and had in fact been burnt to the ground twice in this century.
“So it isn’t the original building?” I had asked my Japanese guide.
“But yes, of course it is,” he insisted, rather surprised at my question.
“But it’s been burnt down?”
“Yes.”
“Twice?”
“Many times.”
“And rebuilt.”
“Of course. It is an important and historic building.”
“With completely new materials.”
“But of course. It was burnt down.”
“So how can it be the same building?”
“It is always the same building.”
I had to admit to myself that this was in fact a perfectly rational point of view, it merely started from an unexpected premise. The idea of the building, the intention of it, its design, are all immutable and are the essence of the building. The intention of the original builders is what survived. The wood of which the design is constructed decays and is replaced when necessary. To be overly concerned with the original materials, which are merely sentimental souvenirs of the past, is to fail to see the living building itself.”
