Hi @Ngaio-ROP and @NikNik,

I am outside of the specified age demographic but given that I don't cope well with any change ever, I figured I'd come along.

hi, so do we post what we would like to discuss via these replies? Also, do we have to keep refreshing the browser? I'm new.

[Ngaio-ROP]

It's absolutely my pleasure @outlander

Are you a young person going through some of life's 'transitions' or are you a parent supporting a young person?

[outlander]

Hi @Ngaio-ROP
Im a young person (20) going through many life transitions but stuck because of family factors

[Ngaio-ROP]

@Shakeelah25  I'm new too but I'm pretty sure the answer is yes, just discuss here and yes keep refreshing. 🙂

Hello @Shakeelah25 keep refreshing the page as you go and welcome

[NikNik]

Hi @Shakeelah25
Yes - you post as you have 🙂 and refreshing the page will keep you up to date on the latest post. Keep an eye on the page number at the top or bottom - as sometimes it can move quickly.

Hi @Shakeelah25, nice to "meet" you. Yes, you are correct on both counts: post your questions here and yep, you need to keep refreshing the browser.

Hey @outlander Life transitions are tough at the best of times, and unfortunately you're not the first young person to feel like their family impededs their progress.

What happens for you? Is it something you can be open with them about?

Hey there,

I am 23 and I was hoping to talk about change in developing a libido as a young adult. This is quite awkward to discuss obviously but I swear it started happening when I started living on my own. I never had any interest (to this extent) in having a relationship. But it hard to deal with these physical changes and now I have to deal with this and the depression. The antidepressant I am taking down not interfere with this aspect of my life. So..what do I do? I feel I have developed really late. Apparently, this all happens for most people during puberty years but I defeintely never experienced any of this. 😕
