Hi. I am fairly new to the board. I have been reading posts and have replied to one or two, but this is my first post about me.

Does anyone else feel like this? I am an 11 year old trapped in a 51 year old body. What I mean is I still crave the need to be taken care of. I have tried to take care of myself, and did a fairly OK job for 15 years or so, but for the last 4 years I have failed miserably. All I want is to be a child again, to be loved and cared for. I never really "grew up." When I was in my twenties and feeling like this, I used to worry about what would happen to me when I was 50. Well, I don't worry about that anymore, I just try to avoid thinking about the future. But the future has a way of coming to you. I try to hide from it. And I can't.
