I just have this constant dread of getting older even though people my age don’t get worried about this like me.
Yes, you are going to get decrepit and die. So, here's your aging challenge. Keep the physiological age of your cells as young as possible. Slowing cellular aging makes 80 year olds look like they are 60, and 40 year olds look like they are 25. What makes cells age quickly? Easy. Free radicals, inflammation enzymes, and high blood sugar.
Here's what to do. Take antioxidants. Vitamin C (500 mg) is a powerful water soluble antiox, and Lycopene is a powerful fat soluble antioxidant. Fight inflammation with an aspirin a day, and brush your gums as well as your teeth. Finally, exercise, stay trim, and stay away from sugar to avoid pre-diabetes.
If you do this, you'll be in good shape at age 92, and then you will suddenly drop dead before you need Depends diapers for pathetic senile fucks. They'll throw you in a grave, cover you with dirt, and people will never know you existed.
Mission accomplished.
I think what matters is enjoying life and taking care of your mental health. Age is just a number.
When I was in my 20’s and younger I didn’t worry about my age. In my mid 30’s I worried about getting old. By my mid 40’s I kind of stopped worrying about it as there is nothing any of us can do to stop ourselves getting older apart from dying, and I’m not ready for that if I can help it. Once I stopped worrying about it I started to realise I don’t even feel old. I’m now in my early 50’s and don’t really feel any different than I did 20 years ago, before I even started worrying about my age. I am active, have a few hobbies and work part time. I keep my house clean and tidy and have an amazing sex life with my husband. We have some great holidays traveling abroad most years. I have a great relationship with all my children who are now all grown up and living their own lives. I might enjoy listening to different music than those younger than me, and don’t frequent night clubs anymore. But I’m certainly not tucked up in bed with hot chocolate and some boring romantic novel by 10pm. We live our lives to the full, still go out partying with like minded friends and often still ‘burn the candle at both ends’ as they say. I put much of the way I feel down to a healthy diet and regular exercise, plus I only ever drink water. I have my husband to thank for this as he imposed all these rules on me many years ago. I guess age will catch up with me eventually but until then I don’t intend worrying about it.
I will say ... Time dose go really fast after High School is over .
If you take care of you're body and mind and soul when you are young you will be fine when you are older .
DUUUUDDEEE!! Same I dont wanna grow older, its boring- but Ijust know that i'll always be young at heart atleast I have that
Intermittent fasting slows down aging both in the skin and the brain
Try that
Yes it's normal to fear ageing.
I’m only 18 but I hate old people and the thought of being one. I find old people physically repulsive and I don’t like the idea that one day my health will fail and I will be unable to live a full, independent life anymore.
I'm not mad at you. I used to think I would die in a drunk driving accident before I turned 30, but now it turns out that I'm 50 years old. As it turns out I wasn't much of a drunk driver, because I didn't want to have the deaths of other people on my conscience, and I was afraid of surviving the accident, but crippling myself.
Yes, getting old isn't any fun, but it beats the alternative. All you can do really is to take care of yourself, and make the most of your life.
I’m not necessarily saying I have a fear of people who do grow old. Not saying you should be attracted or really enjoy people who are older but you hate them?
Reaching that point in life where you understand that to everything (even yourself) there's an end can be extremely alarming. I recall losing sleep the first couple of years. Over time you'll process it and come to accept it. What's important is that you don't allow that fear to drive you down a road in which you forget to live your life.
I would say while you are young - LIVE WITH NO REGRETS- AND in the somg by Tim McGraw "LIVE LIKE YOU WERE DYING", Just live to the fullest, have fun in life, tresat others as you want others to treat you in return. As you get older, and im sure the old were r folks in here will agree, the older you grt the faster it goes. Pretty soon 1 year will go by so fast, you will look back and wonder where the hell the time went. For now just live and have fun.
I'm 27. I'm already tired of life. Cant imagine living another 40-50 years. Sounds miserable!
I mean most friend is almost 30 shes saying shes old, my bf is 30 and says hes getting old. Has some gray hairs. He was like no you dint want to see it when I asked he keep them, he forgets I like older guys, silly men
