demelza:
Finally, someone who understands me. Part of this anxiety I must admit comes from me feeling like I havent achieved enough and that time is now ticking louder. Uggghhh ....... Sumthings just sucks

Damelza do you stay in Lag? You seem like someone I would be so glad to meet. Can we?

Maybe if the OP stayed away from reality TV shows, E!, TLC and their local variants, she would have a different approach to the ageing process

demelza: I know this sounds kinda vain and ridiculous but pls bear with me. In a month's time, I'll be 20yrs and that just scares me because it implies I am getting old and I just cannot stand the thought of it. Being a January baby sucks majorly because I am always older than all my age mates... Yuck. Getting old is no fun but I know its inevitable and I am sooo not comfortable with it. I believe all the fun is in your teen years but I don't want to believe I have Peter Pan tendencies. Pls nairalanders how do I get rid of this silly anxiety and embrace my 20s

Dont worry. Eat garri with okro soup this afternoon and you will forget your worries.

I wasn't wrong when i said nairaland has been invaded by kids teenagers.

richarts: Hey thats so cool. It means your brain is working the right way. Being very conscious about your age and all its ramifications to me is healthy.

I have friends at 26 that still consider themselves young. I tell you that subconsciously those who are always bothered about age are the people that are very ambitious, futuristic and dreamers. They always want to make the best out if their lives.

Keep it up babe. Id like to get to know you.

Get to know her for what For shaun sake, she is only 20.

tpia1:


i think you're very wrong.

its not good for a 20 year old to have this mindset.

shows he or she has nothing doing at this point in time.


i suspect there's going to be a lot of folks like this, given the current culture of irresponsibility and pride that's so rampant nowadays.




this is not normal.

check your life.

do you typically abuse and lack respect for people who are older?

are you depressed?

She is compressed, oppressed suppresed and unpressed.

...........

LMAO!!!
I was actually expecting to see a 28-30 year old lady o!

@Op
I get the same feeling too. Its like hours ago that I was 17 suddenly I'm gonna be 22 in April.. And its a bit scary. Just finsihed school and no job yet. It felt like I'm the only one feeling that way.

OP your post suggests that you are afraid to take on responsibilities. If that's right then I'll simply say you don't need to be scared, simply put off the tv, stay away from your cartoons and remember that the dude who created the Peter Pan story is a multi millionaire(or is it billionaire)!

Face reality young lady/man
