I think being an adult is working, contributing to social conversations, taking responsibility for what you say, working with all your emotions, working with your empathy, keeping on going even when it gets tough, putting good into your community to strengthen it.

I think I used to do this but when I got PTSD, my child states took over, they avoid the adult state, because just becoming and adult was when I was attacked.
 
See I can put up a facade Maze and do that stuff most of the time. But not today - well I did a bit but it takes it out of me.

I have contributed in huges was to my community for over two decades now.
