    Idk when I was a child I thought 25 was old as f---. Now I'm 25 and I don't feel old at all. I do occasionally roll my eyes at lateteens, early 20s people tho because I realize how immature and insecure you still are at that age

    I'm 34 and I don't feel old at all. Though I've already felt the changes like getting tired faster or feeling bad if I sleep less than 6 hours. I just take care of my health, do workouts and control my weight. To be honest, it is funny to listen to the complaints of 20-year-old guys about their bad physical health (of course, I'm not talking about people with health issues).

    Ever since I turned 20 a few years ago I’ve felt like I’m old, but I think that’s just a Gen Z thing… being scared of getting old and calling ages old that aren’t really old at all. Like some of us really think that once you’re not a teenager anymore you’re old. And then “old” is looked at as a negative thing instead of a good thing, which is also kinda f----- up when you think about it.

    My definition of old changes consistently the older I get.

    As for how I feel. Probably older than my age but health plays a major role in how you feel both physically and mentally and i've treated my body like an old hooker for too long.

    We often make a big deal out of age but you aren't really THAT old until you are 60.. 20 is young as f---.

    As a kid I used to think 60 you were in a nursing home in a diaper. But Trump is probably still banging whores at 75.

    What makes people today feel old is comparing themselves with prior generations. Your grand parents had their whole life mapped out at 20. By 25 they had their career together, were married, had 2 kids and a house. So young people feel pressure to check out certain boxes and hit milestones at a certain age.

    Landscape now is just too different for someone to have all of their s--- together by the time they are 25. And the average life expectancy is older now than it used to be.

    As an early 20s person, I can confirm I am immature and insecure

    Yeah I always had this feeling. I am 29, but it feels like my 20’s went by in a blink of an eye. Like I still get shocked when I talk about things from 2007. Like how was that 16 years ago?! It’s kinda a weird feeling.

    I often have the same feelings, especially when 18-year-olds look at me as if I'm a senior person :)

    At least 15 years younger. Maybe i feel this way cause of the fact that i am back in college again. Decided to get a second degree, but d---, that is intense. without those guys i would probably drop it on my first months there, so thanks to them for keeping me alive and sane.

    I actually think this probably multiple times every day funnily enough. I'm 29 but mentally I'm still like 19, but that's mainly because I've battled with substance abuse since I was about 16. I'm basically a functioning addict and have only recently really started to try and improve my life - specifically my (current lack of) career. Like this isn't the good "feeling younger".
