I’m having a hard time recognizing myself

When I look in the mirror I don’t even see my younger self

I set out a goal a few months back and that was to move out of my dads house. I just feel like I haven’t accomplished much so I feel as if I need to move out in order to seem like I’ve done something. That and I really want my own privacy and also eventually want to start a family.

So stress has been weighing in on me. financially, I’ve been able to manage my money really well. My savings goal by the beginning of November should align well where I thought it would. But there are just days where I look in the mirror and I don’t recognize me it could be my hair I’m always combing it several different ways until I just put a hat on. I don’t really know what’s going on, I’ll be turning 30 in December and I’m trying to justify myself that moving at my own pace is what’s going to work. Constantly battling emotional and mental disconnection from life lessons i want to believe im heading in the right direction

Has anyone gone through something like this? I appreciate any advice from anyone
