Weirdly I don't think I've ever had a "phase" like other people seem to have gone through. Is this common enough to not have had something like that?

I guess it was possibly as a teen when I was being LOLRANDOM on internet forums. Not sure if that counts tho because I have always been an internet dweller.

Reading edgy manga was cool.

I had a bit of a David Icke phase when I was a teenager. Thankfully, that ended!

For me it was more like:

Ages 11-16: unaware sad cringe

Ages 17-24: learning to hide it

Ages 25-27: reaching achievement mountain, followed by

Age 28: quarter life crisis valley and the realization

Ages 29-now: unlearning to hide it and actually feeling good

Life is a beautiful journey. Just need to look with the right eyes.
