Ask AI: I’m 16 years old and I have a fear of growing up and having real world. Responsibility’s. How do I overcome this fear

One way to begin overcoming this fear is to focus on the positive aspects of growing up. Think about the freedom and independence that come with being an adult - these feelings can be very empowering. Make a list of the things that you look forward to in adulthood - like the ability to make your own decisions and travel the world. Also, try to focus on the present moment and practice self-care by taking time for yourself and doing activities that you enjoy. Lastly, don’t be afraid to seek help from a mental health professional if you need it. Even if you feel like you’re not ready to take on full responsibility for your life, having someone to talk to about your feelings can help you learn to cope.
