Is anyone else really fearful of aging?

I'm 35 in april and I want to throw up. I seriously don't want to grow old and look old you know? I don't want to be an old man. I want plump skin not wrinkles. No greys, no lines, no sagging and bagging.

Why fear something which you can't avoid

@Popobandar4 I know I can't fully avoid it but its like death it's coming but it's still scary.

@Popobandar4 bc u can’t avoid it doesn’t mean u can’t fear it.

@OogieBoogie Well you've seen really old people out and about right? Shuffling along at the grocery stores struggling to reach things and being ignored. I don't want that to be me.

@FutureIdol whats wrong with being ignored?

I find that i need times of solace and my own space.

There is nothing like walking alone thru nature and seeping the beauty of in, in the silence.
...of mindlessly window shopping and people watching as you throng with the masses, but in a bubble of your own.

Dont get me wrong, people are great- they make you laugh and cry and bond....but they arent you.

Exactly, bc they’re crippled up with osteoporosis or arthritis. @FutureIdol
