Those of you 22 years old and older, did you think you were getting old when you - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

turned 21?-lol I was talking to a friend of mine and she said she was depressed when she turned 21. Who the hell gets depressed when they turn 21 years old? I didn;t start feeling like I was getting older until I was 27. But before 27, the thought of getting old never entered my mind

MsOrange · 02-10-2006, 04:32 PM

I never really got depressed about my age until I hit 35. Thats when I felt old.

I'll get back to you on that one in about 7 months.

Ireneparalegal · 02-10-2006, 04:35 PM

nope. as a matter of fact, the older I got, the younger I still felt and appear. I am going to be 41 and people don't believe me. Now why the F*** would I lie abt being OLDER????? When I was a teen I would lie abt my age (being older).

Depressed???? are you kidding me Solomon??? God, there are so many things in this world to get depressed over. Have the person you are talking abt read that article abt the woman who went into the hospital to have a baby and was released a quadraplegic amputee!!!! Now that's depressing!

Moonlight Lady · 02-10-2006, 04:39 PM

At 21? No way. I was pretty happy when I became 21.

moeee · 02-10-2006, 04:51 PM

I didnt feel older at 21 either.

dawsongirl · 02-10-2006, 04:55 PM

Nah. Now at 26, that's a different question.

moeee · 02-10-2006, 05:03 PM

I was kind of depressed when I turned 30 and didn;t want anyone to say happy 30th birthday but they did it anyway-lol

moeee · 02-10-2006, 05:06 PM

i would rather be 30 than 60!

Chad Michael Murray · 02-10-2006, 05:14 PM

Well, I just turned 21 not even 2 months ago, and I can tell you that I really do feel sometimes like I'm getting old. Not necessarily "old" in the literal sense, but...I dunno. Older than I've ever felt before.

Like, I still feel and act like a teenager, and I always wonder how old will be 'too old' to be that way anymore. Really, the last time I identified with my age was when I was 16, cause it was just such a great time for me and lots of times, I find myself wishing I could still be 16. Up until a couple of years ago though, I could still pass for 16-17, and now even when people don't know my exact age, they at least assume that I'm 19-20. I don't like people looking at me and automatically knowing I'm an adult.

Most of my interests though are teen interests, and I always wonder if when I'm in my 30s if I'll be the same way, or if I'll actually have adult interests. It's pretty confusing, and I always wonder if people see me and go "God, that guy needs to realize he's not young anymore."

Nighthawk76 · 02-10-2006, 05:16 PM

I was excited about turing 21. After all, that was drinking age.

I'll be 30 in August and even though I often kid around about feeling old, I still feel pretty young.

seventies_sitcoms · 02-10-2006, 05:54 PM

It all starts going fast after you're 21. I'll be 35 next month and I feel like I'm ready to plan my funeral. Of coarse, I know when I'm 60 I'll be laughing and asking myself "Why was I so depressed in my thirties for?"

Dean Winchester · 02-10-2006, 06:17 PM

I thought most people look forward to 21... now I am not looking forward to 30
