And for me, it's probably got something to do with self esteem, just because I've demonstrated so little of it over the years in my interactions with other humans. But mostly it's about knowing what makes me happy, and doing it, regardless of whether it's "healthy" "normal" or engenders respect from others.
In the eyes of some people I'm never going to be an adult. And you know what, they might even be right, but it's not really my problem anymore.
It's also about getting that I'm a "striving" person, and that I probably won't ever be satisfied, so if I'm not enjoying the process (which I am), I'm absolutely doing the wrong thing.
