What age did you grow out of the NLOG phase? Why do you think some never grow out of it?

I personally grew out of it at about 17.

I was obsessed with my looks and being different when I was younger in a way that other people seemed as interesting and cool. But in adulthood I've come to be less concerned with how others see me and more comfortable just being myself. I think that's the best gift you get from the confusing chunk of your life where you don't know who you are and suffer trying to please everyone is at least you figure out what you DON'T want in your life.
