See r/nevergrewup. Trauma and/or autism are often factors.

Does anyone else feel like they were a adult as a kid and a kid as an adult?

Reply to TIL that due to "Subjective Age" most children and adolescents feel older than they really are. But this switches at around 25. By age 30, around 70% of people feel younger than they really are, with the discrepancy between actual age and subjective age growing over time. by AspireAgain
Except in r/nevergrewup where everyone's subjective age is much younger. It's often caused by trauma.
