Does anyone feel like an actual adult?

Even with a good career and all the "adult milestones" I don't feel like an actual adult. I feel like I'm pretending to know what I'm doing. Anyone else experience this?

Only when I go to stand up after squatting for a time.

I weirdly like this experience. All the squeaks and cracks and static legs.

i feel like an adult when people any younger than me speak

folks be making up words nowadays im like a month behind every trend but i keep it hip and classy by using the words ironically until its in my lexicon unbeknownst to me

im only 21 tho

This. I’ve got a family, a mortgage, debt and everything else that goes with adulthood. My aching joints are the only thing that makes me feel like an adult.
