At what age did you finally feel comfortable with yourself?

When I was younger I had so many identity problems. Everyone would tell me it had to do with my age, but I brushed it off and got all huffy puffy thinking they did not understand what I was talking about. As I'm older, I have become a lot more comfortable with who I am. I think it started when I was 18 or 19.
At what age did you "find yourself?" Or do you not think you have reached that point yet? I think we are all learning everyday, but at a certain point I do think it is possible to feel more comfortable with who you are and feel alright in your own skin.

I would say about the age of 16. That's about the time I left home and went on to another city to attend my favorite university. As I remember, a bit nervous initially when I left, but after a couple of months I felt fine, and could continue on normally and comfortably.

I didn't have an issue with "finding" myself, but I had a problem accepting myself. I've always knows who I am, but I was raised to believe I was worthless and warped.
I'd say I accepted myself at about 16/17.

Well, I felt comfortable with myself when I was 24 years old. I found the right place to work. It was older than you. When I was 18 or 19, I still didn't know what was the meaning of maturity. I didn't know how to express my feeling, I was just following what people told me. Lucky you have reached that stage on 18...
