Why do people sometimes as they age tend to not take good care of themselves?

It seems many people give up on their personal appearance as they age. But why? Do you think it's due to not feeling well, depression, or what?

It might be a "why bother?" response to their perceived deterioration in looks, and/or it might be that they lack the energy to put extra effort into their appearance. 🤔

So many factors to be able to pinpoint one reason so it seems. Nonetheless, there is no dispute that regardless of appearance, if we are doing the best that we can with what we have got, then that in part is what seems to count. :)
