Does anyone else have problems like this?

Ok, so I got out of work today after giving a kid a ride home. I work at a thrift store, so a lot of the other employees are fresh out of high school. Since I just went back to college...thats also the age of kid i'm going to school with. It got me thinking that its one of those things that is making it more difficult for me to make friends--theres nobody my freakin' age! Most people think age differences that big are weird. Not that i'm that old, i'm 23, but I guess its big enough to work against me in some way compounded with my mental illness. I had a harder time getting my life together at that age so now theres a disconnect between me and most other people my age group and theres also a rift between me and the 18-19 year old kids i'm attending school/working with. I don't really have much of anything in common with either age group, I feel like i'm in some other category altogether. So, basically I feel like an alien with three heads. :\

Does anyone else have this problem?

Comments, advice?
