First off... It's not uncommon to have those feelings at your age. It's what you do with those feelings that counts. I could suggest things till the world ends but the fact is you have to kind of take a step back and pay attention to all the people around you. Your parents, brothers, sisters, gradparents, cousins, aunts, uncles, teachers, friends, school bus drivers, etc. etc.... Every person you have been in contact with since you were born knows why your here on  earth and soon you will to. You are part of something awesome. Life. There isn't anything in the world more awesome then that!! You touch everyone you know some how, some way... That's what you should focus on. Toss out all the negativity. Live long and prosper!!!

It is normal. Children may feel excitement when their birthdays are near. Some adults still feel it. But most adults don't feel great become older. If you think your life there won't bring you any good, please don't be scared to change it. Try new things, don't let work be the only thing in your life as you only live once. New activities may bring you to new friends. Moving to another place could be a good option. Good luck.

Happy birthday!\n\nFor me, 23 was a great year. I finished University, moved country....I had great fun that year. And for a while I was stuck on that age. Even now people ask me how old I am, and I have to think, since 23 flashes in my head.\n\nI can give you anything material, but I wish you the best for your 23. \n\nHave a great year.

I am 74 and started a new career last year. They asked me how long I will be staying there and I said "at least till I am 80". I am charming. Don't know about the sexy but life is what you make it. I never feel my age and I work very hard at least 10 hours a day and I do go dancing with my grandson now and then. I had more fun in my life than my children. I feel bad about that. I went to dances with my mother when I was young and I had a blast. I did not know back then that you HAD to have THINGS. That made a big difference.

I am 62 years old and my children are well settled. I sit alone and recollect all things happent in my life right from my age of 6. I feel for all bad things I did and repent for them.

Sounds like you have some major emotional issues.  Not all old people are fat and not all people your age are "skinny".

sweetie - you didn't die because it isnt your time.  you should talk to someone that can help you with the issues that make you scream inside.  when i was your age, i did the same thing and it didn't work.  i got a ton of therapy, changed my lifestyle, attitude and dreams and today - life is great.  hang in there.  DONT GIVE UP!!! EVER!!!!

I'm feeling really down right now too but my life isn't going good at all so that's my reason. As for you, try doing something that you like. Think about things that make you happy and make you smile. Everybody has moments when they are down. I'm sure yours will pass soon. Maybe you just need to clear your mind and get some rest and relaxation. I hope you feel better.

Hi, I can get the way you now feel, because its such a long time you have been in the same place (like may be home or hospital), so you feel that the whole world has left you behind and is moving far ahead. So, start to read newspapers, magazines and try to debate on the topics with people you meet, and try to get their views and ideas, which will familiarise you with them and get a feel that you are one among them. Good luck.

Yes zool, sometimes I feel very sad and loney too.  My marriage of 27 years broke up about 3 yars ago.  Then I met someone, fell in love and got engaged.  He died last September.  Since then I can't seem to "find my place."  You know, where I belong.  I moved to another state but feel like I need to go back where I came from because my children and grandchildren are there.  What is making you feel sad and lonely?  You can email me at watsoq9@yahoo.com if you like.

Heh, I'm 19, I feel that way... Aging and it's fast pace scares me. My health hasn't been exactly "stellar".  Physically, some days I feel like I'm 80 years old. I no longer buy into the teenage baby mama drama from my former friends, like I did at 16. I guess I have trouble adjusting to age, and change.

you are so right!  (lol) \n\nBut don't feel bad....  think of this, this always makes me feel better....\n\nI am 39 and I have teenagers already whereas some of my relatives / friends are barely beginning to have kids.  I can still keep up with my kids...  we ski, scuba dive, white water-rafting, horse back riding, etc.... will your friends be able to keep up with their kids when their kids are teenagers?   I think NOT!! \n\nIn ten years from now, my friends will be at home taking care of the soccer schedule and falling asleep by 8 pm when I'll be getting my second wind... swimming down in the Caribbean somewhere without kids of my own....\n\nbittersweet isn't it?
