You look young, did you reinvent your self 😁🤣

[@lune78]

Personally it's not the aging that scares me , it's the feeling of having wasted my youth because of anxiety and fear.

[@leahcalabro2787]

I totally relate. I worked in the beauty industry and the media is so geared to give attention to younger generations, but they are not necessarily settled or content in their life. I'm nearly 52, but I am happier now than I was before, because I have qualities and wisdom that enhance my life now that I didn't have before. We also have experience we went through, from our youth that can benefit others. Would you agree?🙂

[@kristymarie6065]

Me too

[@mireillebernheimer11]

Yes

[@worldb4690]

For me it's the feeling everyone around me will change and it will change my friends will have decided were too old for sleepovers and the dumb stuff we usually do or idk ig in scared if the unknown I don't wanna go into it like elsa

[@richf5778]

I did too

[@adim00lah]

I'm not scared of aging, I'm scared of inflation I will have to deal with in my old age, when I'm less able bodied to work. The cost of living is already preposterous, what's it gonna be like when I'm 70-80?

[@dadada486]

My biggest problem with aging is going out to meet people and then revealing my age like it is a crime to be out and enjoying my life

[@iiCounted-op5jx]

for real 💯💯

[@IndustrialCake]

I totally agree. And it's ridiculous because I have many friends in their 60s and beyond. They have the same spirits as I do at 30, it's just their bodies are older. To think that someone is "too old" to go out into the world and enjoy life is beyond sad and ridiculous.

[@JBConsistency]

I’m only 31 but the fact that my 20s are over and my dreams haven’t come true scares me. I feel no different than I was in my 20s. I workout and have tons of energy but I feel afraid

[@TheAnxietyGuy1]

Maybe it wasn't meant to happen at that particular time. Keep going.

[@vincentkingsdale8334]

Don't get your hopes up. Everyone looks like their life is perfect except for yours on social media. Nobodies life is. Few people get to experience their dreams. That takes a lot of unrelenting passion and a boat load of luck. Some realize they had it great when their were too anxious to realize it, and can't get that time back. Life is a bitch

[@superfreakmusic7681]

Look into manifesting and the law of attraction-it will literally change your life!

You're 31, but keep in mind more than half of your life so far, you were not allowed to make your own decisions

Im 29 and i gave up on all my dreams

I am 19 and i am having existential dread due to the thought of getting older and/or dying. It messes with my mental state and makes me think horrible things. I start to hyper ventilate and sweat. Ive been this way for a year.

You dudes are young I'm 42 I'm worried about getting old you guys shouldn't worry your young. When your in your 40s it's going to make u think about getting older

[@INDSNSKRT]

I’m 18 and am going through basically the same thing, if y’all have any tips to settle back into the now please help me out

[@rosserjake]

I wish I was bloody 19. I'm in mid 20s and feel like an overgrown man child. OCD, depression and intrusive thoughts fucked my 20s- feel like my youth was taken away from me.

[@maya-di3mw]

@@INDSNSKRT 18 is rly young tbh, you still have 2 years from ur teens and tbh people say the 20s are the best years and im trying to accept that and planning them so that i won’t waste my youth

[@tangerinebabe1]

Its not the aging thats the problem, it's watching everyone around me die. I'm 56 and my friends and family are dying around me, my age group is full of serious sickness and sadness 😢 I am an only child, single parent with an autistic daughter with complicated auto immune diseases. I have no parents, cousins, sisters or brothers. I am petrified of leaving her with no support. If I could look into a crystal ball and see me living to a ripe old age then I would be a very happy woman, but I cant and that makes me extremely anxious. Everyday.

[@Airborne-80]

I am suddenly....for the past two weeks feeling confused and depressed about my age. I'll be 62 in a few days. I just searched "fear of growing old" and landed here. Thank you. You are so right. Growing old is a privilege. Im gonna post that on my wall. 🙏🙏♥️

[@kristymarie6065]

I’m 37 and have had a horrible 30s. I lost 3 people in 3yrs and the hardest was losing my Brother. I can’t seem to let go of the grief and it was 2yrs ago. The anxiety mixed with grief is so hard to let go of

[@Legacy_pros]

We can relate but don't focus so much on the past and loss. Instead focus on what you have and what more there is to experience... and new exciting projects, plans, and people that are waiting to come into your life.

[@tawanais]

I loss my brother and mother two years ago I’m 38 and scared out my mind of being alone and dying

[@obwhankanobee1923]

Its not a matter of suffering the loss, .....that loss can never be healed, however, knowing that it can never be fully healed and dealling with it from a respect standpoint and taking the steps necessary in dealing with the loss is what is important. Its like any other challenge. Get in shape, Diet properly....honor your loved ones loss of life with respect and do the things they always would have wanted you to do........and go for it....... and remember its not easy, cuz the change is not easy. But you can do it !! Regain your mojo and move forward !! And always remember in all the good causes and good things you learn to do....remember to say to yourself "I am doing this for them and their honor"... Best of luck 1!

[@Canadian_Eh_I]

Hoep your are doing well. I am also afraid of losing loved ones. But Im also afraid that I am nowhere near where I should be at my age (41) and a relationship just feels further and further out of reach....

[@jessicahart4371]

Same, I'm 39 and have lost my brother and mother too. Im so scared to lose my dad. I need him. 😢it will be just me and my other brother left. I try to remember what life was like when they were here, it helps to a point.​@@tawanais

[@sosogigi4914]

I'm currently 14, and I've been terrified of aging and dying since I was 6. I do believe there is an afterlife, but I'm absolutely frightened by the idea of possibly being wrong and never exisiting or being able to think ever again. The fact that I don't have control over this scares me...

OMG, you look 25!

[@catherinewylie6959]

I turned 58 this month and now I'm really freaking out some days. But I love that he says that I don't have to limit myself because of my age. I will not put "ageism" on myself. I had an existential issue last night. I went out with younger friends to karaoke and most of the people there were young hipster types with more interesting clothes and I just felt "old". But then a guy in his 60's (at least), got up there and and and didn't care. He was there for himself doing his thing, even though he didn't talk much to anyone. There were a couple of women who looked older than I who wandered in for a bit and left, but I felt so much older going home. Part of me enjoyed myself and even got into the hip hop line dance thing, but the other part of me felt out of place. Social comparison is something I have to work on.

[@OTOWNGOLF]

Turning 50 next week and needed to hear this, I will listen to this every morning… Thank you! 🙏

[@TheAnxietyGuy1]

Go for it, young man.

[@prettyhandsasmr_]

Thank you for this. My fear of aging is so extreme that I occasionally hoard/hide inside 99 percent of the time and only go out if I must. I hurt so bad emotionally. I ost my mom to stage 4 cancer and my grandpa two months prior so my fear of everything grew in every aspect. Subconsciously I know we are a soul and like you said I'm grateful to even be alive and start over but I think it's cause I don't know who I am what to do or where to go. I was neglected as a child mostly and dealing with trauma from upbringing.

[@catherinewylie6959]

I hope you are feeling better by now and getting out a bit more. I also had a lot of childhood trauma and I listened to a video today about how that can also create a feeling of "not fitting in" and I am noticing it gets more intense with aging for me now. I am trying to learn how to relax in my own skin and feel a part of life and the world in all its great mixture of ages and stages.

[@PaulWillliams]

Aging scares me as it is unknown territory. As a kid and in your teens and 20s you dont have to worry about it but when you go over 32 or so you start to see wrinkles and see other physical and mental changes and its like the old you (the younger you) is disappearing and you are literally becoming a different person which you didnt ask to become. And im just like 'i want the old me back.'

[@TopGun_-]

I’m 50 and sometimes fret over the fact that I feel my best days are long gone and behind me. My 20s was the last real time I felt great about things. I had so much ambition and positivity over my future. Then life began to naturally unfold and take its corse. I spent much of my 30s working long days, etc. and chasing a career. This led me to put other things like relationships and starting a family on the back burner. This inevitably led to great regrets and losing out on things such as a family, etc. Now, I sit around wallowing in the fact that my best days are gone. Those were the days which I had groups of friends and close relationships, etc. since then, those friends went in to get married and start families, etc. I would likely have been in the same boat if I didn’t concentrate so much on work in my 30s....

[@thepaynebro2377]

Don’t ever think it’s too late!

[@epiphanyx3705]

How will you make something new constantly regretting. Yes we were fed a load of b.s about career etc. I too never had children. Yet, there are so many ways to experience 'life'. Break the programming. Have you done any Byron katie?

[@superfreakmusic7681]

Yeah, so much for all this 'life begins at 50' or 'being old is the best time of your life' BS! I mean, who are they kidding?!

[@zareyK]

I'm 17 and sobbing over the fact I will never relive my childhood first hand. I was so happy and free and had my parents all the time but I'm about to leave for college and I don't want anything to change but it already has and I will never experience child-like wonder ever again.

[@jimbox8762]

I am 58. Soon I will be 60. I always find myself confronted by changes in front of me as well as inside physically and psychologically. I want to embrace older age and wonder how I could manage the changes emotionally.

[@catherinewylie6959]

I turned 58 this month and that number 60 is really in my mind, too. My body is also changing in terms of breakdown and pain. All I can do is take good care of myself and try and not think about my age or physical changes and do what I want to do. Good luck to you!

I just want to be able to sit on the porch in my lounge chair and read good novels and be fulfilled mentally. That's just one thing that makes me feel happier about aging - that I don't have to be out there doing a lot of ridiculous social things to get this or experience that anymore. I can relax a bit and enjoy good literature. And yet, so many new things are still always happening and I am meeting more and more people because I still put myself out there.

What if someone has major depression and generalized anxiety disorder about aging and loss. It's a childhood trauma that was triggered 9 years ago after having a full hysterectomy. I wake up every morning with anxiety and fear about the future and being alone and no financial security because I am unable to work because I am going through this again for the 4th time since surgery and during my mid 20s and childhood. I will be seeing a new therapist about trauma but I wish that I could go back to aging is just a number thinking.

[@krishnu-thebeastgamer3436]

I am having fear of ageing and I am afraid of losing my loved one in future means dead and one day I will also grew old and will be dead please help me .😟

[@Fractorification]

It started when I realized I’ll be turning 30 soon and found a few white hairs growing already. I still haven’t gotten married or had a GF so I feel as if time is running out. And I felt like I wasted my 20’s. I try to look into the bright side though. I’m thankful to still be alive and experiencing life, knowing how it can get cut short for other people for many tragic reasons. And, 30 isn’t still late to start a family or meet career goals. But aging and dying are really tough to come into terms with. I can’t help but feel a sense of dread knowing how years go by fast. And now I’m finding myself looking up people’s ages to compare them to mine’s. It’s horrifying. I will try my best to embrace it like I used to though.

[@louisn1368]

Very well put my friend I very much feel the same as you but im 28 years old and am having a hard time knowing Its basic all over for me too when I was 10 I couldn’t wait until I was old enough to drive,go out,date girls,have fun, have a family etc etc I got to my teens and felt I didint fit it with the people of my age as I hung out with older people I remember missing out on things because I was abit mature and saying I can’t wait until I’m older in my 20’s and everyone has caught up to me and now im not as lonely or consumed by my anxiety I fear of trusting people and that didint happen I feel I’ve waited my whole life for these early 20’s moments to only have missed them and there’s no going back I have my reasons why certain things happend and they are legit reasons but some things could have been different and it’s really upsetting especially the more I age your statement was a very well written statement that reminds me of how I feel

[@ESponge2000]

The first part of this has made my aging anxiety worse because I interpreted it as “unfortunately I’m closer to death” but to make it more bearable let’s add some poetry like the fiddlers on the sinking titanic ,,,, Let’s call it a new chapter … it’s a privilege because we are really supposed to have died already and soon that’s on the horizon but until then just … there isn’t much you can do. That life is nearing its end and we need to say something to keep us from panic but overall it’s not good , anyone would go back to age 19. Since we can’t we have to pretend we are young but we are not. I feel like I was 18 yesterday , I can’t believe how much I wasted my life away , I thought I had infinite time but the finite time I have left is shrinking and shrinking, In old world Middle Ages , life expectancies run to 50 years old or 60 if lucky? You accomplish your peak life at close to 30 and then you have kids and you’re done. The last time you can mope about yourself is when you’re like 17 and after that you have to work, pay the bills, raise the kids, work , retire , die … and then at the end you can PRETEND to listen to this guy with great advice he is doing it not for money but for uplift which is very nice …. But there’s no ambition after the senior age , your goal is to not outlive your retirement and watch the last crumbs of your life end then your life is over …. I didn’t make enough of my privilege . I wish I was more active but now I’m so discouraged I am averse to move, I wasted too many hours that turned to days that turned to years that turned to decades

[@noonespecial4171]

The pain in the joints and inability to get out of bed most days is hard. It's hard when you sit and the next day the back and glutes are screaming. You don't know how long you have left and I won't take painkillers. The pain is in the joints, tissues and the muscles shrink as you age and bones are no longer flexible. No one tells us about aging in this youth obsessed society. It's all about chasing something that is destined to end anyway. Knowing you won or succeeded means nothing when you are in pain. Society hides reality so if you are in pain no one wants to know you, you are often alone, long hours in pain and no one to talk to. I'm in my early 50s after a lifetime of anxiety trauma and panic. I taught myself to remember what relax means and feels. I thought once the body was no longer held in tension life would improve. Instead, decades of tension has made the joints and tissues and muscles tight. Traumatised I had no choice but to grit my teeth and cope, hoping one day peace would come. It's too late for me.

[@bjarke5050]

Hey, i hope you are having an ok day. I just had to respond to you. Im 39, male, and this summer, anxiety or fear has rolled over me, like never before. I am afraid its not going away. Because its all very logical thoughts, so why would anything become better? I have tried all sorts of distractions, exercise, driving around, walking, bicycling, visiting friends, going to movies, working and nothing gets rid of it. I started working night shifts again every two weeks, sp my sleep cycle has been very disturbed. But catching up to sleep does not seem to help either. My house were i used to enjoy being alone feels like a prison now. I just want to get out and get stimulated only to fear going home again, to the quiet and my thoughts. Your description of life is pretty bleak but unfortunately i feel that you are right. I feel for you but also my self. I also feel bad for feeling that way about my self, because i am very privileged compared to most people in this world, but still i feel very bad. Crying gets me relief but only temporary, and the thoughts and feelings leading up to my tears are awful. I know this does not help you, i just felt like your message was sad and i would like to hear more, and also to tell you more. Have a good day 🌞

[@wgardner8669]

This one is an issue for me I admit, and it's not so easy to look to the next chapter as I see it as a downgrade. Anyone who is very active ,I run, can tell you there is noticeable slippage after 40. I have had a hard time keeping my time and mileage the same without injury than I did in my early 40s, and I've stayed quite fit, but still it was painfully obvious I was no longer building and improving.

Did anyone else start having fears after a breakdown,i am interested in knowing. I wish you all well xo

[@christinanaber840]

Okay, as a woman, I have gotten to my root fear behind my fear of my body ageing (not of ageing in itself, mind you), and it is to not be touched physically anymore. I'm 32 and I don't get cuddled and touched nearly as much as I want to. I'm single by choice and look for an eye-level partner and that needs time. Yes, I have one-night-stands, but they are almost nothing compared to being hugged by a man who cares for you. I'm almost going out of my mind right now, even at just 32, because I feel a lack of physical touch, and it almost makes me pair with inadequate men just to get this a little bit. But I don't because I just know that will only be shitty in the end. But how's it going to be at 60, 70, when by chance I should not be with a partner then? We don't live in tribes anymore and this society is really touch-deprived for old women, especially women, because men can still date younger women, they can be providers etc. I have no solution to this yet and sometimes I'm scared.

[@catherinewylie6959]

I am 58 and I am going to start dating again. I have attracted much younger men, but I'm very picky, and I am not interested in them anymore. I'm still not sure I even want a partner by now. I am fully used to my own company and having friends. We'll see....

My faith in Jesus takes care of the fear of death because I am saved…..but turning 70 now makes me worry about how my late years will happen….my strength and health will fade…..society seems to ignore the old.

[@terrymurphy4401]

I hope this works I've been worried for over 20 years now, and Im 60 I've never been so scared in all my life and it's been a hard one but this I can't deal with Im in tears over it.

[@TheAnxietyGuy1]

One moment at a time, you'll get there.

The reason people fear ageing is because it genuinely does suck! This 'ageing is wonderful ' nonsense is nothing but gaslighting. How on earth can losing your health, ability to do the things you once did, freedom, confidence about how you look, not to mention all the debilitating symptoms of the menopause possibly 'heighten life's experience'? Why do we insist on going round kidding ourselves and trying to pretend that bad things are good?

[@TheAnxietyGuy1]

I completely and respectfully disagree. The perceptions around aging has a very real physiological effect on us which can either bring out the worst in us or the playful sides to us no matter the age. Aging is a gift that not many get to experience, and we must cherish it and honor it as we do all natural change processes on this planet.

Age is just a number ....its those three digit ones that really scare me......

[@blameekatoneikosipente482]

I fear growing old because I have remained static a long time due to anxiousness and fear. I lost almost 10 years of potential because of that and many milestones.

I'M 53 AND SUFFERED A LOT FROM AGING ANXIETY, JUST HORRIBLE. NOW I'M BETTER AND DON'T CARE MUCH ABOUT AGING, WELL IT'S FAR FROM BEING PERFECT... BUT AS A MUSIC LOVER I RECOMMEND THE SONG 'THE BEST IS YET TO COME' BY THE SCORPIONS. IT CAN HELP REDUCING THE AGE ANXIETY, GIVE IT A TRY !

Thank you. This is a very healthy perspective. Interesting you say “write that book”. My daughter is 6 and I’ve started reading her a lot of graphic novels. I reallly enjoy them and began reading adult ones. I created a few outlines in my mind. But I think I’m too old to do it and I’m 36! I was never a talented artist and I also don’t easily stick to goals. Hmm.

[@JonathanRice-c6x]

My husband spent 1 full year trying to pivot into the tech industry and was told by several recruiters and even interviewers that at age 30 he should be in a senior role and that he is competing with fresh college kids, like its unacceptable to revent your life and statt a new career unless you are 22. Bold with the age discrimination now and seems like its starting even younger. Have heard tech industry is known for this. Whatever, another wasted year of his life plus had no idea that its a major recession in entry level job market now

[@vincentkingsdale8334]

That is just 1 opinion. Dont make that everyones opinion

I’m terrified of getting older, The thought of turning 25 this year, Growing Older, Family members aging, Its got to the point I sit up all night unable to sleep.. I feel lost

[@mitch5222]

Same. How do u deal with it?

[@JonathanRice-c6x]

Im about 5+ years older than yall and all i can say is you still have a long life ahead so tackle thevanxiety now and learn to manage it whether that includes therapy or meds. It does get qorse as you start to see the first signs of physical aging and other little things. But you havw to tell yourself we are in these mortal bodies and this is the natural cycle of life... acceptance and stoicism. Then focus on cultivating a satisfying life and be happy. Hopefilly eventaully the anxeity will fade away

[@kanizfatima3447]

I’m 19 now but still feel 10 ! I’m not scared that I will be boring when I’m 70 but kinda nervous on how society will treat me ! An old hag

i have so mach aging anxiety and i am only 29, espetially as i see my beaty fades day by day, i seriousely think about suicide i can't live inside this body animore, i don't like to live and watch my body and face changing and becoming uglier day by day

[@mitch5222]

How are u now?

[@JonathanRice-c6x]

The key is to cultivatw other personal qualities and other things in life that are indepedent of physical appearance

[@kdpunshon3073]

Oh my beautiful young sister you are still you. Please don't let this sick culture destroy you so long before your time. Fight the billion dollar industry that is anti aging and sucking us into self hatred. Change is hard to accept but we can do it holding hands. Fuck them.😮

Aging isn’t the problem my youth has been wasted it was just Covid and I was 22 turning 23 now I’m turning 28 soon.. I still live at home with my mom due to high child support and credit card, debt.. I hardly have any friends I haven’t lived at all the past 2 years just throwing money at these credit cards that have 30 percent interest so in 2 years I’ve given 5k to the card and the balance has gone from 38 to 3300.. I now feel like I have to live everyday like my life is almost over and I’m literally 27 for 2 more months then turning 28.. had so much expectation for my life and watched it drift right by.. used to hate seeing my friends who were like 23 being with some old dousche 32 year old guy, now I’m becoming that old dousche 32 year old guy(still 27) and when I look at a 24/ 25 year old chick I’m wondering if I’m that creep guy.

[@iiCounted-op5jx]

I'm 18 and haven't done anything fun or interesting these past 4 years

I’m afraid of people having to deal with selling all my stuff and closing my accounts if I randomly die. 41 means you can die at any moment in my head.

[@hessjeen4403]

Maybe some of you younger folks teens & 20's can connect with each other for support maybe start a group and come up with a business or project that you can do together. Wishd I was 18/19/20's again. 😮 But don't be too concerned about dying...just concern about living well since you're still alive at this time. Death / transition will take care of itself as it's part of Mother Nature cycle. You still pretty much have LOOONG time to go so 1st big thing is to Take CARE of your body with proper healthy food and eating habits. Get proper rest. , don't abuse with alcohol and don't jump in out of sex relations with too many people. U MUST take care of your body and that will help the mind / brain feel better. And Don't give too much of your time away to people or a job career if you're not comfortable and know it's a dead end situation. Don't be pressured by societal expectations of how your life should go in any particular order BUT if you do want children DONT wait too long for this esp. for females / girls... unfortunately girls generally don't get as much time as the boys for this to happen. Take chances if opportunities are presented for learning or doing something new & different. Try to connect with some older adults for guidance; it doesn't have to be a parent or relative. Maybe you can volunteer to help a senior or older adult and possibly learn a few things from them. But steer clear of those that say 'Just Pray About It' to EVERYthing (not being anti prayer but just saying😮). Best Wishes.
