I am 21 years old, and for a moment, I would imagine that I had not a certification for my

birth. I feel that my Ag would be because I have a certain feeling from the inside. Like my shoe

size and height, the counting of years that passed since I came into this world is a fact that cannot

be changed. Yet my every involvement suggests that I always do not anticipate gaining in a

specific manner. Out there, many people feel like they are younger than their average age. I also

have the same feeling because I always think I am more youthful than my actual age.

I believe there is a gap between my mental age and chronological age; feeling younger

than my years seems to have a low risk of getting depressed and a higher risk of mental health as

I age. It implies good physical well-being, including the risk of dementia and fewer opportunities

that I may be hospitalized for sickness. It is well accepted that I tend to mellow as I get older,

being less open to fresh engagement and extroverted. My personality changes are less marked. I

am younger and heightened among persons of older subjective ages. Interestingly, my younger

personal age has become more painstaking and less anxious.

If I had to use digits to represent my social age, it would be eighteen, and I would still be

a teenager. The age I felt upon my subjective age is a string illustrator of my current brain

wellness. If I associate with a younger generation, it tends to give me a more youthful structure

of the brain and strong memory than people feeling the same age do do do or past their ages.

Interestingly, my younger generation could be connected to restore memory and planning

abilities in ten-year tenure. Minority persons may rate their subjective age to be older, yet they

could have more concerning memory issues, yet other people may not.

In determining my social age, I would consider factors such as achievement motivation

and social maturity. It could be linked to progressive mental age; for instance, it is associated

with a parenting environment that is emotionally warm, authoritative, firm, and democratic. On

the controversial side, if I feel older, I may be engaged in taking risks. Now that I am aware of

the age pointers on the social clock, I can calculate my social age. If I hit all the ages at

anticipated moments, my social age may equal the ages at which pointers are marked.

Considering whether I act at my age and what it would mean to me, I can slow or speed

up my social clock at varying speeds. Biology may force me to leave my profession at a

reasonably young age chronologically. Having such caution in mind makes a great deal of

autonomy to determine my social age. my young social age can affect my mental age.

Associating with teens may habitually keep me more youthful; it is by the benefit of my

exposure to youth culture. My emotional age may be older, yet it can help me deal with the

stresses of raising adolescents.

I would say that there are particular norms expected of persons my age within my

culture. The age bracket between 18 and 25 appears as its stage, upcoming adulthood, yet the

progressive roles focus on emerging adulthood persisting over the early years of adulthood.

Achieving autonomy would be establishing myself as independent with a life I own; identity is

about creating my likes, preferences, philosophies, and dislikes. Increasing emotional stability is

a sign of maturity, establishing a career or an original direction, and seeking knowledge.
