It makes me feel like a fucking idiot every time. I never see a fucking adult trip and fall like I do, and don’t tell me it’s OK or whatever, please—I want to know if it’s normal.

No. I trip and fall all the time myself, have since I was a very young child from my hoarder's collection of diseases.

Sometimes its neurological or the result of other diseases/medications, in my case its a very simple poor gait issue I didn't get addressed until I fell down some stairs 3yrs ago and fucked up my leg. Most people walk heel to toe, I walked toe to heel, there's a stability difference. Basically, I was a stealth toe walker. and nothing says no fun like learning how you're supposed to walk in your 30s. Along with seeing a doctor about this before you fall and get super hurt like me I'd suggest checking out how you walk.
