Age Anxiety? Meow
My first thought is: What is that? I doubt there is though anxiety is the new hype. Young to old suffer from it or say they do and honestly I have no idea what they all are afraid of. Is the anxiety hype real or based on the western lifestyle or did it arrive with the next vaccination? I believe that is the case, also that the more we talk the worse it gets. I haven't been raised to sit and complain but to work for what I want. If you work and your first problem is how to eat, and pay the rent there's no time to think about age and if it will be a burden. To those suddenly afraid of getting old I like to say: you knew it dude so how come you are not prepared? You had the time to save to fix your face or buy a sportscar because you feel you never achieved anything once older. Unlike what you think a teenage girl or Ferrari doesn't make you more attractive you are still an old fool behaving like a teenager which is even worse (yup the new manager is 60+ and gossips like a girl, the sneaky attitude is included and instead of liking him, everyone turns his back. He never figured out how to be an adult and behave like one. Will he ever? I doubt it.
Some elderly seem to have the same trend as those who had a nearly-death experience..they suddenly forget all the nasty things they did and want to be friends. Is it to be sure they won't die alone? I don't believe getting old is something the average person worries about. Also, death is not something to break brains about. We know we die and we have life insurance so the offspring doesn't pay for the funeral. What we all most likely fear most is FOMO .. indeed the fear we missed something but with a life fulling job, working till 72, time goes fast and the only thing you can hope for is you die if you have fun.
The average person is lonely and will die that way. The feeling of being a burden to someone else is a more realistic fear.

I read you, don't worry! Just like you, I don't believe that there's such a thing as age anxiety. We are way too busy to work ourselves into the grave to think. Next to that, the anxiety of being left behind, having no job, no friends how to pay the bills leaves no room to think ahead.
