“Manhood is the defeat of childhood narcissism.” -David Gilmore
YES!
My bf said “oh yea I was very narcissistic as a kid, I was a bully” 🙄 and now I’m on RUclips trying to figure out how to help him help himself 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️
Oh. I thought he was the one who said ”leave us kids alone” 🤔
? Who are u replying to 😂
These are my daily disciplines I've done for years
1 meditate
2 cold shower
3 exercise and diet
4 practice art and music
5 journal
6 study how to books
7 say hi to everyone in my zone even if they don't care
8 save money
9 have a vision board
10 stay joyful and great full as much as possible
Exercise is not a act but a habit keep stretching your body and mind there's no limit 👌
Booya!! ✌🏻
Yeah, get married, have children and have equity in something. Thats manhood. Being responsible for others and your community. All that other shit is just more self centered BS. You can do all that while having responsibility.
@@haveaday1812 Absolutely! This is the real man would do.
“You can’t force this psychological change without changing your circumstances; without taking action. It CAN NOT be done.”
1. Wake up Journal dump 3 page
2. Find a tribe or a mentor- preferably other men (For encouragement)
3. Cut off all external dependency. Learn to trust your own guidance
4. Define your life vision
5. Take action
Don't be afraid of the pain that will come, or afraid of failure, both things are part of the growth process.
@@lyndonbrookins5300 i’m man child i feel needy because I don’t have job
I am a female fan. I really appreciate what you have to say and provide. Kind of gives me a different prospective for myself. Thanks!
I've had this all my life the result of being raised by women with no male role models to guide my transition into manhood.
Same here, I was raised by a single narcissistic mother.
Blaming your problems on others…. Stop doing that. Thats step one for you guy.
@@haveaday1812 Already done that. But when you are a child, that is simply an unrealistic expectation.
Yes I’m definitely a man child , stunted and toxic and a lot of messed up patterns, and I definitely have Peter Pan syndrome
Email me.
@@OliverCowlishaw hi brother what’s your email ?
@@iamchannelll ocowlishaw@gmail.com
@@OliverCowlishaw fantastic Thankyou I’ve emailed you .
Damn…. I really needed this kind of help 45 years ago. It is too late for me now.
PLEASE people… if you recognize these traits in yourself, take action NOW! You really don’t want to end up like me. Majorly disappointed in myself and depression that is crippling. I wish that I could turn back the clock, but that is not an option.
It's never too late for you. You aren't dead yet.
You are using the same Pan syndrome, now hiding responsibility having the ”i am too old” card. Don’t do that. I am 50. Tried tge same card. It doesnt help. Face tge reality and enjoy growing up, in an age. Respecting you, feel for you, do not waste your life. 45 is middle-aged. No old at all.
@@TheJimbo1791 Thank you for your advice and concern, but 45 years ago I was 23 when I think I could have really benefited from that advice. I am now 68. In the 6 months since I wrote that post I have made some mental/psychological changes, currently have a better outlook and am developing and pursuing new plans for my future. I can still regret not having made those changes earlier. I have not given up on life, nor will I. One positive change I made is spending far less time watching RUclips video and much more time getting things done.
@@hoopyfrood4391 my total respect for you. I am 50 and sure wish i had been wise when i was young. But true, we cannot beat ourselves to death, well, we can but like you i am still holding on. It would be great to find more peace and mercy for myself. And life, whatever it is but one day at a time. We shall see what the future will bring. The past, oh how I long to go back. My biggest work is to let go of the mistakes of the pasr. I hold on to the ”i am too old” card still. I am so Glad to hear that you are doing so much better. So good.
@@hoopyfrood4391 ps ACTUALLY... even folks in their 70s are not ”old” like they used to be (50 was goddamn old too) ...times have changed. But I think we understand each others pain. Cause pain it is.
Thank you, Clint Eastwood.
Powerful, thank you, will be forwarding this onto several clients.
Great to see you back, looking great, sagacious words as ever. Oh, and Neneh Cherry has a lot to answer for.
I love the concept of having a life vision. Much needed for any man!
Thank you so much for your positive attitude to what is a very painful issue.
Oliver, rather than public videos, your content seems like private videos you've recorded exclusively for me. It's like we have had hours of conversations and you know my history and problems and then you have started recording personal videos for me. Keep up the good work man. Watching video by video and growing with each video.
I am pretty sure I have this And I am a woman…. I still live with my mom . Dont do chores , sleep all day . And everytime when there are conflict ibmy relationships i either cry or lock myself in my room and run into my fantasy world and imagine everything will be okay and refuse to accept reality
And my way of dealing with my problems including sleeping all day and fantasize about romantic relationships and success that I never have to make me feel better . And I often dont take any actions to avoid pain
This is so relatable especially the fantasying about romantic relationships
I have some childish habits but learning to overcome it little by little
Keep going 🔥
Much love brother! This is fantastic and wonderful information. Love the fact that you pointed out we cant do this alone, its very true. Having a mentor has saved my life.
If i may add, in terms of becoming “independent “. Rejecting things to the utmost, can be quite psychopathic. It also opposes your previous point. For example, realising that we have an infinite personal relationship with God, can be life saving.
The entire world is interdependent. Its unnatural for us to be independent.
I agree with the point that dependence is destructive though.
We cant be a law onto ourselves and exist above natural laws and principles of life. This is one of the main reasons why people are so harmful, because they exist in a constant state of fear. They know they arent God, but they try playing god in their own lives.
Again, much love and thank you for making this great video!
Thanks mate. I agree entirely. It's a weird nuance. Being not dependent or independent but interdependent. I think I was just in a mood when I made this video tbh 😂
Just caught the video where you left FB/Instagram. Congrats! Looks like you're in Portugal. Good to see you back on the Tubes.
Fuck yes, Jason! Hope you're keeping well and still killing it brother.
Thank you for this inspo!
Any time!

Thank you 🙏 was looking for a video like those
OOOH RAH Ollie. Good to see your face!!!
Thanks man!
Awesome video brother can totally relate to this mentality
Thanks, Adam. And how are things going?
Your channel is a blessing
Thankyou, brother 🙏🏻
You, good sir, are brilliant 🌟🌟 Keep it up🙂 🙏🙏
Dude yes, I’m 32 I feel 18 all my friends are 19-21
I don’t have friends of my age if I try I feel bored and anxious, I can’t even date because I always want to do teen stuff I’m addicted to TikTok and all those things teens do. I have a job but I spend the money fast buying video games clothes and sweets. I also look 19 and idk why. I want to be mature but then I feel sad boring depressed idk
I need to date and have kids already but nobody wants me
If you're serious about fixing this, send me an email.
Dude, how are you doing now? I am 31 now and in this state, its frustrating

Loved the video . Although i couldn´t stop noticing , that even though your lecture is about leaving childhood aside to enter manhood, you were wearing a robe which inconscientely signals childhood and i found that funny. Other than that it's all very good tips .
Love your videos mate
Thanks, mate.
Thank you for your videos man
My pleasure 🙏🏻
Thank you
Great video! Although I think #2 and #3 contradict each other a bit - I think your point on action is spot on!
I don’t think the Peter Pan syndrome is inherently bad though. It just shows opportunities where you could refine/reach your higher self.
Taking action or going on an adventure at it’s core is being in a childlike state so we can never actually remove that from ourselves.
Keep up the great work!
I live with my grandmother who is disabled, my aunt, and uncle. I grew up loving Peter Pan. My grandmother even had a personalized Peter Pan story but replaced it with my my name. I’m 26, and react some days like a 5 year old boy, 15 year old teenager, and some days I don’t even respond to reality. Some days I just live inside my head. I’m concerned I might develop schizophrenia. I need so much help.
We should talk. Would you like to do that?
@@OliverCowlishaw Yes

Thank you I really just wanna grow up and I depend on my mom to much
HANDSOME 👍
Shadow self work is important also
Is it, Peter Pan syndrome necessarily a bad thing to have and is it good or bad?
Great 👍
It seems some people use Peter Pan syndrome for everyone who doesn't have some certain path. If someone is 40, 50 yo or 60 yo and doesn't have partner and children and doesn't have certain expert carrier and works for example as a clerk in the office and knows something like bit of programming, graphic programs, excel and all those office things and so on and have some hobbies like sport or art and wanna stay young, doesn't really mean it is Peter Pan syndrome.
Its peter pan syndrome if you avoid adult responsibilities and leech off of others to continue your lifestyle of self indulgence. If that doesnt apply to you then you arent a peter pan
@@unknowntosociety01 Peter Pan syndrome is a child in adult body, not someone who doesn't have children. Because most of such people don't plan or don't avoid to have children, for most of the people it isn't lifestyle. It is just life. And it is natural btw, it was always like this. So avoiding adult responsibilities is a part of such syndrome, but it isn't this case. There are many other adult responsibilities. And of course there are many people who have children and they are immature Peter Pans.
@@unknowntosociety01 Its peter pan syndrome if you avoid adult responsibilities.
There's no such thing as adult responsibilities but rather the path set out by biology of growing to sexual maturity to create children. That is the "normal" way for humans according to biology. The subjective you the self (an illusion generated by the brain to help the organism navigate it's social world) is not in control (it never was) and is just along for the ride of life. Young age, middle age, old age are all just philosophical concepts invented by ourselves by observing ourselves. So then at young, middle and old age a pattern emerges and what's considered normal or abnormal behavior in general is derived from it.
Any human problem (that is considered to be a problem) I've realized is nothing more then deviating/deviation from the biological path of reproduction. "Adults" are considered normal because in general they will have offspring (ensuring the propagation of the species and it's subjective mythos) and NOT based on their emotional subjective behavior acting as mature adults or childlike children.
The actual problem with the Peter Pan Syndrome is not that there are cons to it but there are pros...many pros to it. So then the question: what is the price of having to grow up to be adults must be addressed.
Let's list some negatives of being an adult. Compulsive gambler, drug addict, wife/husband beater, pointless "adult" wars and it's almost an endless list from thereon. There's also another strategy to be say half peter pan and half adult a compromise have your cake and eat it to. I don't think that's possible too much for the brain to do (and or simulate).
Peter Pan wins out on the imagination while the adults do not seem to have any.
If Peter Pans were in charge of the world then an automatic Utopia would emerge.
To solve any problem they would first ask the question: is it FUN?
War? Is it fun when people die? No? Ok!
Serious stuff...in a childlike way.
And this goes into the realm of conformity. Many peter pan's stay that way because the serious logical adult world has many serious f-up shit in it. So then they conclude that growing to be an adult seems to be a risky venture.
And what the hell is adult responsibility anyways? A 9-5 job is a given responsibility. Isn't that enough?!
A wife that constantly nags you to have children (because all humans are mammals) is also a responsibility. What more responsibility is needed to be qualified as an adult?!
This "responsibility" thing seem to be naturally derived from nature and the only thing we can do is to say no to it. And some (such as peter pan's) say no to it to reinforce the illusion of the self to reinforce the denial of being an animal ill fated to die.
I feel like I'm stuck. I do all the things a 19 year old in college does and just realized that I have this syndrome. I know it's common for my age group and I should continue my lifestyle, but I am interacting with people much older than me to further pursue my career and I have to maintain a false maturity and professionalism. If I try to mature I know I will be ostracized by my friends and I cannot continue my lifestyle, but my facade of maturity and professionalism is slowly falling apart. I am split between two worlds and wish I just stayed ignorant, or at the very least, have enough commitment to choose a side - then again, if I was able to, I wouldn't have Peter Pan syndrome.
Nice man! Have you actually done the course? Would be interested in it =)
It’s a family dynamic not an individual responsibility
I found that this syndrome described me well so in doing my research I stumbled across this video. Although some people can change for the better, in my case it is hopeless. I have severe depression, given up on life entirely and with it developed this peter-pan syndrome. Unlike other people that might want a change, I don't. I avoid all responsibilities and intentionally ruin any 'chances' to make a life for myself. I quickly became tired of living up to the ways of those I'd never want to be, a normal way of life just seems unappealing to me. To devote all of my time and effort to something that I repell for what is necessary for the means to survive in order to sustain a life that I don't want. I feel like absolute insanity and with it, inevitable suicide would quickly follow. And I don't care about how others perceive my situation/condition, I'm all about living my life however I want to, not how others want or expect me to. I would rather be incarcerated within the sweet prisons of my socialist country or die than to be in 'the right mind'. I keep pushing my way, refusing to open up to anyone or seek help. Perhaps someone can relate, perhaps I'm the only one in the world who's like this. However, this comment was just a rant, so scroll by.
Why did you make this comment if you dont want to open up to people?
I’m trying to break out of that and take the world by horns so no one has to feel this syndrome
I not for yourself then maybe try and work on yourself for others around you. because at the end of the day your actions effect them.
@@Sniperthe0ne children are essentially selfish, so they are just thinking about themselves, probably.
Your actions effect them? You are pretending a Peter Pan person is like a god who makes the world go round? I thought in psychology it is said everyone is a master of themselves? Meanwhile Ngc I am like you. Which country do you live in? France ? I think my country France which has a lot of unfair and inexistant justice make a lot of Peter Pan people. Can you write back to me ?
I've Peter Pan syndrome and I hate myself for this
Tell me more..
Im stuck at defining vision for 20 years. Tips? ;)
+ im not sure telling people with pps that the only way to achieve their dream is "go out and do it", when they dont want to go anywhere, but stay in their fantasy.
what is a mana rosi?
I love hugs so i hate social distancing.
The terrible present and the unknown future that young male live mostly in 3
third countries make them to return back to the wonderfull past that why they still live in childhood
I know this is meant for man, but as a woman in a modern world I really needed to hear this.
Tell me more. What did this video do for you?
@@OliverCowlishaw As a 27-year-old woman, in a context in which I am finishing my postgraduate degree and suddenly I see entering the "real world" close by, I have realized that continuing to study has also been a way of postponing my adulthood. The truth is that it was not my intention and now I have problems committing to less independent work. The grad scholarship pays for all my expenses, but it's not a big income. The thing is, now I've been offered a job and I'm afraid to take it because of a lack of self-confidence, but also because it's taking that step into adulthood.
On the other hand, I believe that today women must also be able to face challenges, grow and be our own heroines. I live with my boyfriend, but I like to share all the responsibilities, I wouldn't want him to bring the money and I would cook dinner, you know? So, if I want to be a leader in my career, I must learn these things that are culturally "more for men."
Sorry if there are grammar mistakes, English is my second language.
i have a mind and body of child but my age is adult but i still need help
It would have been good it it had Captions. I am a non-native speaker. Also I don't know anything about 'lord of rings' story.
I am Peter Pan because not had Outbreak in My Childhood.
Is it “ok” to be manchild when you’re around 17-19? Some say it is and some say it isn’t.
It's natural. Just go on a quest in the next couple of years.
Once your past 21 you should start adulting
I was gonna watch this video but my answer was “not at all” to all the opening questions.
Me watching the previous video: ahh, so my roommate and I...I see we're getting somewhere
Men that go for much younger women e.g 60 plus year olds with girls in their 20's , I would also put in this catagory. Plus men who act like single men even though they have families.
Cant reject the state or government. It pays me for Im working for the local administration of my hometown.
I was a Man Child and I still sometimes use to behave but now I am matured and take responsibilities for my actions
I Ultimately struggle with this shit, I can't fucking understand what my Girlfriend is saying to me up until I watched this and now it makes sense everything she says to me.
Well done for acknowledging it mate. Most guys just get resentful and pissed off when confronted with this stuff. Hard pill to swallow. Accept it and say yes to the journey of becoming a more powerful man. Your woman will love it.
@@OliverCowlishaw True mate, Knowledge applied is wisdom indeed. I will comeback here after 60days and tell my progress dealing with my inner man child
The one thing I disagree with in this video is the wholesale rejection of religion. Reality is ordered and involves hierarchy and thusly submission to PROPER authority is a masculine and necessary thing. What you want to avoid is submission to improper things. Your conclusion is a pendulum swing and throwing the baby out with the bathwater. The question isn’t yes or no to religion, it’s - WHAT religion and how must a man orient himself to that religion so as to not create another mommy situation.
But maaan the information diet thing is amazing.
Agreed. Thanks for elaborating.
@@OliverCowlishaw lol I’m Catholic, I had to say SOMETHING hehehe
@@thedorsinator haha of course. Glad you did ✌🏻
Religion is false but you can adopt some good principles from them (although the good principles are universally taught)
Ahh breath of fresh healthy masculine air. You got a female subscriber.
Thankyou ✌🏻
These me
The definition of adulthood is the slow, painful acceptance of all the things you’ll never be.
Or my teens.
You’re wrapped in a blanket telling us about man-child haha I’m playing nice video I haven’t watched it yet but about to
Hahaha apparently the irony was completely lost on me when I recorded this.
Covid19 makes in very bad mood.
@Oliver Cowlishaw please take moment to review this summary I made from your video. Whether I got it right?
Summary
1. Journaling( example method: morning pages).
2. Find a tribe or mentor. Habit of dependency can't be go away without a tribe or mentor.
3. Reject dependency on people (be it parents or government or God/religion). Quit all sources of information you usually go to (eg any blog or even this yt channel) and think what you think about yourself, what should be done with life.
4. Define clear vision for life. Look for a 'Quest' for self. Ask: what you want your life to look like. Ways: 1. Online Future Authoring program 2. Vision Board (put pictures that motivates)
5. Is Call to venture. Go and do (practical uncomfortable) things. You need to go through pain and suffering voluntarily.
Don't be perfectionist, stop procastinating.
No
wo b is not a comfort zone she is creator. Mother teaches provides and setssn exa.ple. problem is she was a child herself. Oth parents use childer as entertaiment while tv raises yo wever ties with fqther to succeed him
Very intriguing that this condition is often applied to men , I’ve seen plenty of women who act like children in my life . I would even say that this is far more predominant in women from my own experience.
Not everyone can reject government dependence some people are disabled...
I am a man child yet the first seconds of your story doesn't really apply to me. I was being physically and psychologically abused as a kid by my father. He'd tell me i was unloveable, that i was useless, that i was a failure that i shouldn't have been born.He also kept telling me how "dangerous" the outside world was and i ended up hibernating into fantasy, and being deeply scared of reality. Also on the opposing end of the spectrum i had an overprotective childish mother who used me as her surrogate spouse, i was basically an object for most of my life. My life is so different from other's people experience it's unreal. I just couldn't relate to other people so i deepened myself into fantasy.
I had a conscious senex but was prevented to use it. Even as a 12 years old i could be extremely realistic, i just wasn't interested in living in reality and picked fantasies and lies. Everything is about comfort in it. Even working, wounding yourself physically becomes a source of comfort when you do it and do it again. (My older brother is a manchild and he's been working as construction worker for over 15 years) Meaning is comfort and it's the hardest thing to change, because you've instilled emotional meaning and importance subconsciously, even if a little, in whatever you were doing and that's the only thing you knew and you are going to defend the only thing you knew.
About journaling, i have already been "confessing" to other people
Also thank you for taking your time out to talk about that problem, you seem like a genuinely good hearted person, i wish you the best in life
All i wanted in life is people to encourage me and believe me as a kid but they were all like my father and they said i'd fail (Well not all honestly but that's how my own inner wound irrationally felt it like)
I don't understand what the problem is. If he goes to work, pays his bills on time, does his laundry, feeds himself, somehow, etc... then so what? If the guy doesn't want a wife and kids, then he doesn't have that hassle to deal with. Apparently, one of the markers of a "man-child", is having low, or no ambition. Maybe he's the one who's got it right. Why work like a dog, to enjoy life later, when it can it be enjoyed now, just have a lower standard of living.
Fun fact: Peter Pan became Peter Pan because he suffered the trauma of being abandoned by his own mother as a child
By your own interpretation of that Buddha proverb wouldn't you be a kind of Buddha in the road?
Yeah. I've since evolved on this one.
Mentor figures are essential but only if they consistently help you realise the power within you.
Eventually, you will let go of the mentor figure and go your own way. The mentor appears for the sole purpose of helping you become powerful enough to not need them anymore. Bit of a paradox, really.
If you're still dependent on that person/figure/organisation for your orientation in life then you've gotten stuck somewhere (or have been manipulated somehow).
I dont like the Real World.
After three years, did anything change?
Look , according to what you are saying religious people are man child . I do not like the way you say any kind of religion ,any kind of God because peoplr are sensitive to these things. But i guess a way of people being man and developing shadow is by mocking sacred things which will make them depressive and evil. I do not want that type of development. But anyway is your way of thinking.
Thank you.
I know. I'm a woman. What am I doing here? Sorry, I just love masculine-femenine topic.
You've given me a lot to think about. I'd just say I somehow miss the ancient rites of passage. There was a rite of passage marking a clear transition from childhood to manhood in almost every culture. You left your mom and family behind as a boy and came back to your tribe as a man, to be treated as such by everyone. Your mom included. That kind of rites are lost in time and were provided by men only. Perhaps men circles are a good substitute: what a better way to learn what it is to be a man than surrounded by other men you can refere to and learn from to find your own way?
I finally get it! Thank you again.
Thank you for your comment. I agree. The rite of passage or initiation ritual has been left behind and young men are paying for it.
I agree, but just being around men, while important, doesn’t come close to what a rite of passage is, which is all about showing the young man that he can do things for himself and on his own.
@@thedorsinator Have you had experience with a rite of passage? It sounds like you might have.
@@OliverCowlishaw man, I wish. My mom was overprotective. I think my dad always wanted me to have done that. He kept insinuating he was going to send me on a program called “outward bound” which is like, survival school almost.
@@thedorsinator ah gotchya. By any chance, have you ever heard of the ManKind project? They help men with rites of passage.
Not everyone can do that because they are addicted
Many man children are addicted to porn or drink or drugs. I recommend slaa coda or aa or na for this...
I have the body of a woman. 😀
But what about your mind?! haha
Too many heroes asking for a shot to change World. We dont need heores, we need good kings.
Fuck yes 🔥
And when men-child get married, they want a woman to take care of them and meet all their needs like their mommy, but they treat their wife like a child who must obey them. In the meantime, theyy want to come and go as they please, and so whatever they like, while mommy works overtime picking up all the pieces and enabling them. They are a tyrannical, overgrown toddler. It's a nightmare for the wife, and then he is stunned when she leaves him for a real man who treats her like an adult and an equal.
Here bc I need to figure out if I can help my bf help hinder
Help himself*
He needs to help himself Trust me Ive been around the block and every relationship has failed due to my lack of drive and ambition to work towards goals as a couple. He needs to want this himself, you cannot be his surrogate mother and expect him to change. Just my two cents
@@unknowntosociety01 you’re right tho :( 💔

And in John 3:3 Jesus replies “Truly truly I say onto you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter into the Kingdom of God.” So powerful. Kingdom of Kings, serving being before served and spreading the Fathers heavenly dominion onto Earth. For you are a servant to the King of Kings and in this Kingdom the Lord pleases for you to become a King as well. Amen my brothers. Glory to God 🧎🏾♂️❤️

If you reject Jesus, you are lost in every possible way that matters.
Dear Oliver, the energy expressed in this video makes me worried for you. There is anger in your voice, in your face. I wonder whether for young men struggling with maturity you could be a strong and empathetic guide for them rather than a critic. There may be more work for you to do before attempting to guide others. Could you be the wise man that kindly lends a hand? The anger and breathlessness in your voice suggests you are not being kind to yourself.
I appreciate your reflection.
And given this was a couple of years ago, I can look back in hindsight and say that yes...I had some demons to work out.
Luckily I can say that in the past tense.
Now I help but from a very different place.
i want to be peterpan forever. i have no desire to be a powerful man, the only power i desire is to be able to look into the face of powerful men and tell them to get out of my sunlight.
Okay that your problem
Be a mix of Peter Pan and Captain Hook. Problem solved
BEHOLD! A MAN!
i feel like most children are so evil
As soon as you said to reject GOD I was like thanks but no thanks.
I could have elaborated more on the point. Worship of figures of authority (god/the state/guru's etc) *can* become just another form of escapism but not necessarily.
I would say u should choose God as father figure one who disciplines you and u r afraid)fearful of him,that will serve your masculinity well and pretty much protect you from toxic masculinity.
Wait, lord of the flies?
Hey this is a great video. Kind but blunt. Trust this video boys. He's telling tell truth.
