To be adult pilled is to have been so thoroughly confronted by the realities of grown-up life that you've been fundamentally changed by them — often in a bittersweet, slightly defeated way. Maybe it was one too many overdraft fees, a realisation that rest is actually necessary, or finally understanding why your parents were always tired. Being adult pilled doesn't mean you love being an adult; it means you've accepted that adulting is real and unavoidable, and that resistance is mostly just exhausting.
