Age difference

[raesong1017]

No offence to anybody but I feel so out of place compared to the people I've come across on this site. I feel so inexperienced considering my age.

What is your age?

[raesong1017 in reply to b1b1b1]

17

Well, that is great that you are reaching out at a young age. Welcome. As you can see there is quite a range from teens to people in their "golden" or tarnished years ( heh heh) . You'll get different points of view, and that will help carry you through your issues.

I think it's kind of neat to see so many age groups in one place supporting each other.

I am 27, that might seem old to you but I remember how miserable I was in high school like it was yesterday. I do still struggle with anxiety but high school was way worse. So it does get better

27? Old? 😂😂

No matter what age you are, I believe we can all learn something from one another. We’re all in this together.

I feel like that sometimes too 🙂

Hi that's the best thing about this site as there are all ages from 16 up to well let's just say old e are all at different stages of our illness and healing which means we can all support and help each other. x

The only difference is that others have lived for more years facing the issues you face now. Because they have made it through, they know it is possible. Anxiety and depression happens at every age, even very young children. The issues that seem to cause anxiety and depression may be somewhat different at different stages in life but it really is not the issues themselves, but how we respond to them. Older people here have likely been through similar situations and will likely give you some perspective.
