    Hi👋

    I dont actually know what age we become a young person from a teen.

    But I say from 20-25 your a young person as 19 is still nine(teen) thats my look at it. That might be an hilarious way at looking at it🤣

    Nothing to be scared about though becomming a young person rather than a teen. I just wanted to ask is there anything that is making you feel scared about coming a young person from a teen?

    Oh thank you for your help I already knew that when someone turns 18 or 19 they would still be a teenager or a young person even. The reason why I am scared about adulthood because of the pressures and responsibilities of it so I really want someone to start helping me properly on this one as this is very challenging for me.👍🙏🏻

    Are there any specific pressures and responsibilities that you are worried about?

    ​Even when you leave your teen years and become a young adult, though there are more pressures to do things like get into uni, find a job or move out, pay rent/bills etc., no-body will expect you to have 'got it' over night. It's more of a learning process and takes time. Many young adults may look like they have it all together but actually don't feel that way at all. The best advice is to do things when you feel ready, and take small steps by breaking down big goals into smaller ones. There's absolutely no rush to get things right at all :)
