I think that, unfortunately, you've fallen victim to the youth-obsessed marketing machine in America. Everything has become about image and is so objectified. There is no sense of the spiritual world as much as there used to be and the realization that we are more than our bodies and should be judged and valued for other things. I think, instead of focusing on some rigorous ant-aging regimen (although I am not saying not to take care of yourself, just don't obsess and go overboard), you should spend some time strengthening your spirituality--whether through religion or any other means. I think that that will help you out tremendously! Also, spend more time around people who are not so superficial and obsessed with looks. Aging is supposed to bring wisdom and peace...not stress us out. And in many cultures, the older you are the more respect you get from those around you and the more powerful you become. It's too bad that the media has brainwashed us into thinking the complete opposite! Even though I'm still young, I'm seriously considering retiring in a foreign country...don't know if I can put up with the crap older people have to deal with here.

i've been affraid of aging since i was 6 years old. i know that sounds insanely crazy. but it's true. i never wanted to get older. i am now 28 (i look 18, yay!) and i'm constantly worrying about aging. it really bothers me.

Great advice - women are really made to feel their value is mainly measured by a youthful beauty myth.

Hey sure - do the healthy things - thats not the same.

But if you buy the myth, you are setting yourself up for a lifetime of self flagellation, disrespect & misery. Look at you now - only 20 and at it already! Are you enjoying it? No. Its making you psycho (and describe your mom in pretty unflattering terms. Not nice).

You are young so changing your attitude will be easier, and pay off longer.

You are only twenty right now, you should enjoy your time now, and using products won't really get you anywhere, so eat healthy food, don't smoke or do drugs, put on sunscreen though, and exercise, it will help you feel young and look young when you grow older.

YOUR 2o for the time being try to focus on life now! as long as you look after yourself, things wont be shifting anytwhere anytime soon! enjoy life because you only life THIS live of yours now.
