Afraid to feel old?

[Petermorgan343434]

So we've all seen the meme of Mike Tyson in his recent fight in his corner between rounds exhausted and crying. I have a new puppy, and my first child on the way, I feel this meme exactly sums up how i feel now, being able to go out and party and be wild and free still, but feel tired and old and can’t hang as long. How do i deal with realizing the prime of my life is gone and on the way out, if I'm still excited for all the adventures ahead and happy and ready for a family. Im just really conflicted about having a family and the party years finally being over.

I think you should speak for yourself only because I have not seen any meme of this Mike Tyson guy, whoever that is.

If you believe that at age 25 your prime of your life is gone, then you probably did not see or experience very much in your life. Partying day in and day out is not really what life is all about but I understand that you feel old if you are intoxicated 24/7. That does take a toll on anyone's life.

Perhaps you should refrain from doing things that make you feel old and start with those that motivate you. Good luck.

I am 35 and have so much energy, I am almost bouncing off the walls. You better see a doctor if you feel that way at 25.

I think you should have a little talk with yourself , seems to me like your whining about having to “grow up” because you will soon have to take responsibility for another human being and not just yourself. Both taking on a new puppy and having a child with someone were YOUR CHOICE.


Getting old is inevitable and there is simply nothing to be scared of. Embrace it and take charge of your life and stop being a passenger moaning and bleating about your life

Check back with me in 45 years and you might get some sympathy at that point.

if you're that tired at age 25... then should definitely consult with a doctor
