Having discussed the various periods of psychological maturation, from infancy to adolescence, we have come to the adult period, which in fact is not yet the last in the personal history of any person, however, at some point degree can become a turning point. Let us recall that a person’s abilities with age should develop in the direction of greater autonomy, freedom of choice, and faith in one’s own strengths. Psychological immaturity, on the contrary, manifests itself in the form of lack of independence, the need for support and support, and the inability to take spontaneous actions and decisions. Adulthood (psychologically) differs from adolescence in that a person abandons ideological maximalism, stops raising the bar for his demands on the people around him and the world, and directs his energies to new ways of acting and perceiving, rather than “getting hung up” on the importance of his goals and ideas. An adult begins to look at his relationships with others no longer from the standpoint of a sense of duty, but from the point of view of his desires. Indeed, from childhood a person acquired the skills to first limit himself, then control other people and the outside world, and now, finally, he I learned, matured, gained courage and took on another part of responsibility - to be responsible for my desires. How he will do this depends on the motives that governed his previous decisions. If from childhood he sought to grow up in order to escape from a state of inferiority, dissatisfaction with his unequal position with adults, then the goal of such a psychological revolution will be the desire to finally climb to the very top of society and “do what you want.” Such a person only seems mature and free, but in fact, instead of acquiring real strength and independence of judgment, he is “stuck” in a comfortable but self-confident position. Self-confidence differs from confidence in that it is like a soap bubble, beautiful and large on the outside, but empty inside. Such an “adult” person revels and gorges himself with his “freedom” precisely from childish greed and envy. “I can do anything!” is another illusion that can collapse under the pressure of fate and circumstances. After all, gluttony often leads to dulling of taste sensitivity and loss of control over the quality and quantity of food eaten. Therefore, sooner or later, the result always comes unexpectedly, most often in the form of illness. A real adult does not consider his adulthood to be the final station, and his desires to be the main goal in life. He continues to study and therefore remains sensitive to the inner voice of conscience and the signs of fate. His principle of freedom: “Appetite is satisfied not by the amount of food, but by the absence of greed!” That is why, while increasing the breadth of his interests, he does not forget about the depth, which helps him maintain both mental balance and health.
