There may be something to it. I don't do a lot of things anymore that an adult would normally be doing. I used to but it became too difficult and maybe that is somehow connected. The emotional thing I can relate to experiencing, as for a lot of years after i became an adult, I perceived other adults to have the same power over me that they would have if I was a still a child, and that has never really gone away. I have to remind myself that I'm 40 years old, and they don't have that power, and that probably causes a lot of my defensiveness with other adults as my first instinct is they mean me harm.
