Let me tell you something, I haven't even begun to peak.
Let me tell you something, I haven't even begun to peak.
Then what? Continue peaking, or does happiness return?
I haven't read this study, but I've heard most people tend to be their happiest after their kids move out, and near retirement. You have more time to do the things you want, have more 'extra' cash than before, and are still in decent health. Obviously this is on average and varies by person.
Fuck that. Starting tomorrow, I'm drinking even more. I don't wanna live to my 40s if it's gonna get even worse. Got almost 3 years to completely destroy myself and I'm sure as hell gonna try.
You’re telling me I have 22 years to get WORSE???
48, can confirm.
Some people call the forties middle age when the truth is most hit middle age in their thirties.
54 kinda sucks.
Can confirm
And when I do peak, you’ll know. Because I’m gonna peak so hard that everybody in Philadelphia’s gonna feel it.
Goddamn, I hope it doesn't get worse that it is right now.
Sometimes it gets better, not promising it will....but it might.
It got better, that time was peak responsibility.
Only thing I outperform my age bracket in
I legitimately hated Witcher 3 as a game hears guns being cocked over her hot take Witcher 2 was better, and even I didn't think that was anything special.... dunno if that helps or if it made it worse.... anyway
But The Witcher was peak Television... until it wasn't and Henry Cavil just kinda gave up and left over it.
Being 55, I agree.
So, did it get better afterwards or just plateaued?
I loved my late forties, and I love being 50. A lot is hard for me right now but the good things are good and I'm grateful for feeling like I fit in with my friends and at work.
Seems like a very good crossover of having teenagers as a parent, senior responsibilities at work, and the realization that you ARE getting old, and you can't even hold your liquor the way you used to drown it all out (not that you should manage your anxiety with alcohol anyway).
44, must have peaked early.
Lol. All you yung'ns who think you've hit peak miserableness.
You sweet, summer children. It gets worse.
Is that a crest I see before me?
