Actually, I usually feel like I'm older than I actually am. Like I'm looking at myself from a different perspective, even though I may actually not be. Like I'm this person talking about my experiences and problems, even current ones, like when you talk to someone old and they're always saying things like "well in my life...." or "in my experience..."

Maybe a different way to say it is that I feel like I'm on a talk show or something. Like I'm Jay Leno's guest and I'm being interviewed and telling stories or bits and pieces of myself. A little bit insight, a little bit issues, some pain, some humor... I've even thought about this before - that it's probably strange :-/
My T said that some people feel younger in therapy and some people feel older. So maybe you're one of those "feel older" types.
