Early 40's and it gets worse every year... I hate hearing "life gets better as you get older". I feel like my 30's were mostly ok, but that sense of everything is wrong only grows each year that goes by. I miss my 20's and I know I'll never have as good of a time as I did then. My only hope is that if I make it to retirement, maybe then I can relax a little before I die? I forget what it's like to not have constant worries.
Don’t worry, now people in their 20s are feeling the same way. So at least you’re not alone.
Shit’s fucked
