Too old for a pacifier

So I use a pacifier for comfort. I dont remember using one as a kid, although i know i did. but i just love using it when im upset, or to sleep sometimes. i used to hide them from my parents, and more then once had to find another when they found them in my room. i have no need to hide it anymore since im 20 and have moved out. i once saw a girl on tv confess the same thing but its just not that common, im sure. is this normal?

    not really normal, but there's no harm in it.

    i use a pacifier myself while driving to and from work (helps me focus, stay relaxed and keeps me from grinding my teeth while speeding along a busy highway!)

    i also use my pacifier at night while in bed- it eliminated my tendency to snore, which my partner is very thankful for!

    i do urge any adults who are curious about using a pacifier to invest in a "nuk5" pacifier, which is designed for adult physiology- it's much easier on the teeth, and more effectively stimulates the sucking reflex than a baby pacifier.

    Why would it not be normal? It's something you like. Like me, I can't stay away from diapers and once an opportunity pops up, I do everything in my power to steal one
