50 is not old anymore lol I guess I feel this way b/c I'm now 30 and it feels like just yesterday I was graduating high school.  You just need to connect to others your age with mutual interests and maybe reinvent your image for a confidence boost :peace:

I am 51 and I still think like I am 25. LOL. I am not old and neither are you. So what you're 50. We can still do lots of things. Remember, people are living longer and 50 is the new 40. So cheer up.

My great grand mother lived to be 107 years old, the only time she slowed down was when she reached approximately 96.  Secondly my grand mother lived to be 93 and I remember one day she said when she wasa little girl that 50 seemed very old, but at 93 50 looked real good to her.  Stay envccouraged and live life to the fullest each day. :icon_rr:

I just wondered if everyone when they get my age feel depressed over being old.  I am 50 and lately I find myself feeling like fun is only for young people.  It seems like all I do is go through the motions of life to try to take care of others in my family.  I have been thinking about when I was younger and wishing I was young again.  I feel like after you get older all there is is work and worry and that unless you are young and attractive you just blend into the woodwork and don't really matter anymore.
Oh!Oh!Oh! Merry Depressed :angry7:You shouldn't have to think and worried about others in your family! You should feel happy and enjoy with everyone in your family.Why?
Because this is  the very enjoyable moment,especially when you're in that age. Sit down with your sibling and yall talk and remembering those moment yall had together when you were
young,yall be busting out loud laughing. I sometimes remember those times and laughed by myself and sometime mostly i cried. :'( Why because i missed thos moment we had and now
we have our own kids and grand kids,i missed that moment but not wishing that i could be young again. You have to accept what your age is now but also keep on enjoying!!Merry Christmas and Happy New Year :heart: :star:

 :) Find something you like to do and get busy. Bike riding, geocaching, hiking, swimming.

I know that none of us can know how you feel without being in your place, but at 74 I don't think much about how old I am when I can apply that energy to the next new adventure I can pursue. Heck I'm finally old enough to play Santa Clause!

 

That made me smile.  You make a perfect Santa!
