I've always been like this, even as a child I used to dread my birthday. I just turned 26 and feel like an over the hill hag; I started feeling old at 22/23, probably because that's the age where people graduate college and it's too late to do "youthful stuff" at past that age. I don't enjoy life at all and don't really know what to do now. I'm too old to do "young stuff" now like clubbing or go back to college as a young freshman. I already have a degree, but if I did go back, I'd be almost 10 years older than everybody so it's not like I'd make friends. (I have no interest in that, but I'd still like for it to be an option.) I have nobody to hang out with and don't know how to meet people. I feel too old to hang out with young people, and too young to hang out with old people. I've never clicked with anybody, and definitely won't now. The only person I see on a regular basis is my roommate, but we have nothing in common and barely talk. 

Time flies. Even if I were to do "young stuff" now, I know I wouldn't enjoy it because I'd just be hyper aware of my age and the passage of time. Also, I don't see how I could enjoy clubbing when I won't be considered too old do it in a few years. I guess I can't live in the moment. You know what I mean, it's like starting a new career when you know you'll have to retire almost straight away. Nothing's fun when you're running out of time. 

Please don't try to convince me 26 is young and that I still have time. After that you're late 20s, and that's basically 30. 

Do any of you feel this way?
