Well everyone gets older theres no way to prevent that. That's like denying life. Its okay to fear that but do the best you can each day and you will age gracefully especially if you take care of your diet, excercise, etc

That's a good point though, they are right about doing your best to take care of your body. If you take good care of it you won't age as harshly. It is a fair step to take to help with the fear, just don't let it consume you to the point of thinking your getting healthier by not eating and things like that. ๐ You can do this!

Things like that are super helpful for me! When I was a kid and scared of it I would remember I can get older, have my own family, my own home that I run, and my own hobbies and money. That helped me a lot. It's now a matter of making that a reality with hard work ๐ (this fear is crippling so I'm so glad that others in here are helping yay!)

I think the post complicated thing at last is to be happy living the present moment. When I was a child I could have killed to have what I have now : a wage, the freedom to go wherever I want to, buying all the stuff I want to. When I was 16 I remember telling myself "I'll buy all of the mcdonald's sandwiches once I earn money!!" ๐ And now that I have everything I wanted to, a part of myself always stick with the thought that I would so much like to come back to when I was still a child, so much innocence in life, the dream of a futur with a beautiful girlfriend, a house and kids to play with and teach things at. I think that's the most complicated things in definitive : be happy with the present moment, and it's not as easy as it seems bc human being are always unsatisfied no matter what they own in life.

Your answer is a bit rude btw, when we don't understand something coming from someone who wants to help it's better to say "Sorry, can you tell me a little more about that" it's more polite ๐

Sorry. I just don't really understand what you're saying but I appreciate you trying to help.

Often it's when you go from being scared to being pissed off in a point that you want to fight.

๐I'm sorry I didn't pay attention to your word "aging" I confounded with a French word that is "agir" which means do something in the urge of a particular moment. So I thought you were saying something like "How do I get over my fear of "agir"? Sorry for the mess ๐

I struggle with it too, I think part of it is doing what you can to fulfil some of the need to "live while your young"/ enjoy what you know you should enjoy in that particular age, but don't comply with your compulsions of it too much, and then try maybe watching some stuff with older people in it, closer to the ages your going to be hitting next, and find something about those people that you appreciate that they have due to their age as something to look forward to. It's not perfect, but it has helped me a little to quelm some of the anxiety to be able to assure myself that everyday I am trying to do one thing to get what I need from my age and that there are always things to look forward to. It helps for me, maybe it'll help you. If you need a better explanation let me know! It's kinda hard to word it right!

Hi everyone. So recently I have been feeling so scared and paranoid of going crazy. I am terrified of i will go crazy and turn schizo. Iโm so hyper aware of everything. My mind convinces me that I will end up like this but I really donโt want to.Itโs my biggest fear and I think abt it almost everyday and I canโt handle it anymore. I just want to be ok. I have told my parents this and they say itโs all in my head and just laugh at me. I know itโs in my head but I physically feel sick to my stomach being constantly scared. Please someone help me please please. Thank you.

I turn 17 in two days and Iโve been in a panic that Iโll still have attraction to 14 year olds, because I actually do not know if I do or not, I just canโt tell. I donโt know how Iโm gonna tell. idk if I will or not, and itโs all super confusing to what I really want, itโs like โdo you like 14 year olds at that age??โ And I say no? But it feel like Iโm also lying, and that I actually do? idk what to do? My brain keeps justifying it to be fine cuz itโs only three years but I really donโt like that, so Iโm worrying that I will feel attracted

does anyone else experience extreme fear of developing psychosis or schizophrenia or derealization. I literally freak myself out so much that it makes me physically sick. Iโm so scared of developing these and it keeps coming up all over my TikTok and Google. Itโs freaking me out.
