Good morning. I'm not quite your ages ,but I hear it from my mother on a regular basis but she is 88 , you are not old you must try and enjoy your life with your husband, go out together hand in hand and enjoy each other company. All the best for 2025

It's hard. I am here with you, trying to stay sane. 68 is not old. In some ways a new life is just beginning says one who is filled with anxiety lol. We help each other. Blessings to you in the new year.

I;m 69, and just beginning to feel a little better about aging. Took me years, Because of depression, I don't worry about how much time I have left! I just try to look and dress my best, and try not to compare. We;ll all be this age; happens to everybody. I live in Florida, and you'd feel very young here! People decades older than me are living it up and enjoying life - some aren't, of course, but I do see a lot of happy people in their 80's and 90's.

Happy New Year! Seems like a peaceful day today - I'm just taking it easy & will prepare dinner - it's some kind of meat cooked with sauerkraut - some kind of traditional New Year's thing - never heard of it!

I am 69 years old and am in the midst of anxiety and depression once again. I feel like wow, shouldn’t I have have gotten over this by now? I am retired, have a wonderful family, but am not enjoying this time as I want to. So, yes, I hear where you’re at and I sympathize.
