@@idontreallyknowagoodname4191 of course not I most certainly don't have the temerity to call COVID terrible, nor deadly or a horror that send thousands to death. God bless you with health and happiness
@@idontreallyknowagoodname4191 it was terrifying for me. My parents really amped it tf up and made it seem like the world was fr ending. I didn't believe it was at first but after awhile they got in my head and it fucked me up for while w dissociation which fucked up my memory and sense of time a lot, which i still haven't recovered from fully. So yes, for some of us it is/was. Don't assume cause you can never fully know someones situation
I’m still not the same. It was junior year of Highschool. I basically stayed in my room for 2 years and I never left the house. I didn’t really speak to anyone. Everything feels so foreign now and all I do is watch RU-vid all day everyday. I’m scared to start acclimating back to normal.
I'll be too old to drive this year - & I still feel twelve! The WORST mistake you can make is to allow, or force, yourself to NOT feel twelve anymore!!
Turning 18 feels like a big step into adulthood, but deep down we all still feel like kids sometimes. Cherishing memories and moments is important as time flies by faster than we realize.
Lol you’re in for a ride if your life. Love it tf up baby!!! Enjoy it, I’ll be 27 next month and feel like I’m already in my 30’s. You still have your youth🤣💪🏾‼️Happy early birthday baby🤣🥰‼️
I’m 28 and still feel 16 at times. It’s not a bad thing though. The pathway to full maturity is to find what you lost in childhood and regain it as an adult, a man once said
I work with the elderly and most of them say they feel like teenagers stuck inside old bodies that they don’t recognize. I see people staring in mirrors and they express how alien it feels to age. So I don’t think we ever outgrow that.
I've turned 51 this year but I feel like I'm in my 20s early 30s and have since those days, I reckon it's right when they said it's how you feel that is important, I play alittle prank when I'm ask my age & that is to see how young I can get away with, 35 was my last lie.🤭🤣
@@jessybee1389i think it’s stupid how literally nobody I encounter ever feels their age. They always say they feel younger, either teenaged or child. But they never say “oh you know I feel 40 or 60 cuz I am that age!” I think it’s ego. People can’t accept the fact that the teenagers, or young adults they used to be are gone forever. And they are no longer those people, they are full grown adults. But they just wanna pretend like they’re not.
@@paulfoster1965i think it’s wrong to lie about your age. You’re not being honest with us, then I don’t think you should even talk to us. I don’t like liars. Besides, what’s wrong with telling people your age?
@@LilXancheXPeople feel like their ages usually not gonna say about that. How many chance you meat someone literally talk to you like "Hi look I have two arms here"? Because they usually feel there is nothing they need to explain to you
No bro feeling 20 feels lost You feel like 80% of life is lost now all left is responsibilities The dreamer kid always questions what have you done in 20 years and it feels so empty
this!!!! i don't even have an id yet, stopped going to school cause it got too hard, can't even drive. i feel like such a child even tho i turned 18 jan 4th. this world is too hard.
Wait till you’re almost 30 and still feel like you’re 20. You guys have no idea how it feels to only be able to date people who remember 9/11, three years before you were born…
29 here, just want to give all you people turning 18 a huge tip. The next 12 years are going to go by so fast it's crazy. I'm 30 this year and time has just flown by. Some days will seem slow but trust me, they aren't. Seize the time you have. Make use of it and enjoy your life but make sure you do something to set yourself up in the future too. Take a trade or something. Trust me, you do not want to be 30 and have wasted your entire 20s partying. No matter what people say, it will not be worth it later on. That time is going to zip past you faster then your realize. Seize the day, make it yours, but make sure you don't squander it either.
23 here, and this person is spot on. It feels like my birthday was just like a month ago… it was 5 months ago. Every… single… day… feels like it was wasted because they go by too fast. So fast that I don’t feel like I’ve done anything productive or noteworthy. Every day I just wish I was in high school again, but I’m also so optimistic for what my future can bring.
@@survivalistor6195 I'm happy for you then. You'd be one of those rare cases. Time if flying by me. Already have two kids, full time job, no time to myself. All I'm saying is, that time will be gone faster then you think.
It feels like I wasted my teenage time, I still don't know what to do with my life.. it's like everyone's living expect me, like time just froze..I still feel like twelve, I'm not ready to grow up....
You not alone bro. I'm 19 and by the end of this year I'll be 20. I still feel like I was 12 yesterday. It's as if I went to sleep and woke up in the future. Adult hood just kicks in all of the sudden and u don't want to accept it but it's it. Our childhood is gone lol.
Guys, some people don't know what they want to do at 50! Stop worrying live, learn, and enjoy. Unless you have huge career plans, then work to live and do something you love every day.
When I was 5, my doctor promised me I would have to get any more blood tests until I was 11. I went to school and thought about how long 5 years was, and how I basically got all the time in the world to not have to worry about it. When I was 11, I realized that those 5 years hadn’t been as long as I wanted them to be. It’s been 10 years now. 10 years since I was a little girl in a playground thinking about how much I could do in 5 years.
I am 28 and trust me time gets faster. When you are working, unless you do well in school, you are subjected to monotonous work that will make your days unmemorable. The stress of having to deal with your own problems without any help and then the pressure of your parents failing health will hit you. That 5 years feels shorter and shorter, you get trapped into things that will waste years of your life whether it's dating or choosing a bad company to work for. I am nearing my 10 year highschool reunion and how my life has been so far, how my friends have changed and who became rich and who hasn't, whether it was ethical or not. All the while you are trying to cope with the reality that we are all just mammals on a big ball of rock that can be destroyed at any moment by humans or outside. Don't think too much or you'll become like me. Hahah
@@Yes-kc3drPlease don't regret getting there when you get there. Most people aren't mature until their mid - twenties. And - women don't hit their sexual peak until their thirties.
I think time goes faster as you get older because. Life gets more boring. Like when your a little kid Your not bored of life yet you enjoy life and having fun. Time goes slower. But as you get older Time gets faster as your brain is thristy for fun. Fun has gotten harder to get and life gets more boring overtime, I can't verify this though as I'm only 12
i'm 23 almost 24 and i still feel like i have a 17 year old brain. i feel like i'm getting old. i still watch old disney shows and movies like that's so raven because idk it feels like the shows back then had real meaning and a message. is that weird?
The older you get the faster time goes, the more you look back on memories and good times it’ll make you wish you could go back to those moments. Cherish everything you can, from a small moment to something big no matter who you’re with or if you’re alone cherish each and every moment
I’m 36 and this couldn’t be more true. It feels like a few years ago I was 29. We’re being 110% honest that time keeps going faster and faster. I can’t believe how fast each new years comes and goes. And I’m 36! My 91 year old grandmother said it continues to go faster each year. That’s what freaks me out about getting older… the passing of time. Life suddenly starts to feel very short when you see how fast time passes.
it’s actually so sad, i was 15, covid happened, blinked, & i was 18. it sucks that most of my brain has cut off half of my past because of traumatic memories & i literally feel brain dead now, but fuck it we ball 🙈🙈
Advice from someone 31; get a therapist and work through that. It's cool to not remember the bad and all, until you have night terrors before a long shift at work.
I just turned 18 in September and it feels crazy. I feel like time is moving quicker than I can blink. I have no clue what to do with my life and it feels like I'm behind because everyone I know has jobs and I am here jobless and on a waiting list for every single class I signed up for. 😞
i feel like ive missed the last two/three years. all of a sudden i’m graduating high school, worrying abt college and learning how to drive i swear i was still 15 yesterday
@@tammie3194 i have four more days til exams ends for me and idk what’s going to happen 😭 it’s so exciting but i genuinely dk what life outside of high school and worrying abt school in general is like its a weirdly scary change
@@lalalandthinkr I understand you... But now I feel somewhat relieved that it will end since I want to go over to the college phase and I want to experience something new, but the final process is so stressful!!!🥲I feel like I'm going to break. The best of luck to us...
I just turned 18 and my teen years since 14 were all a blur because of covid, I never did anything fun or interesting during those years and now my youth is almost over :( every year from now on will just be getting closer and closer to old age, every single day I am dreaded with constant regret and envy for my youth being wasted, its truly over, you can only be young once in life, ONCE!!!!!
At 18 years old you’re still a child. (Not technically) but you are still kinda. Wait until you hit your 40’s and realize that half of your life on Earth has passed you by. Then you’ll see how fast life truly goes by
@@TurkeyGameZ same when I was five snow, and it became an addiction until basically now to get them 11 and now I haven’t had my daily snow, but I’m OK and plus it’s really really fun to play in the snow you can make a snowman snow angel
@@kooper1683 isolation has been a big part. I’m in college and this past year was more fulfilling than the 2019-21. I’ve made and hung out with friends, partied, laughed, and cried more last semester than during Covid. Covid was crushingly lonely.
I'm going to be 26 in August, I've never cared about birthday parties, I haven't had one in years, but I make a point of having a small celebration and a cake when I turn 30 [if I reach 30], my health has never been the best and my hair is falling out more and more, but there comes a point in life when you lose your fear of everything so I'm fine, ironically, my only fear is losing my mother, she is everything to me.
Felt that one last year. I'm only 18 and I feel like an old man. Lost all my homies, even my main man. Only stories left to tell of the good old days when I was 16..
I remember doing this. Being out, late in the snow, where the cloud's transparency and opacity met at just the right point, where the dim evening light turned brown.
2 weeks, it's been hitting me like a freight train this past month. everything has been giving me nostalgia, and I'm realizing all the shit I gotta keep up with now
You don't need to know what you're doing for the rest of your life yet. It is overhyped because school would want you immediately going into college. Here's the thing tho. You can go to college whenever you want at any age. You can simply make money from any job and if that gives you a living, then good 👍 I'm 22 and don't have any big plans. Just stuff I'm trying
When you hit your 20s nothing that happened before feels real, and nothing that happens until you're 25 feels right. That being said, I'm glad it didn't. I made choices, made mistakes, lost more than I wanted, found exactly what I needed, made a life and destroyed it then started all over again in that very small amount of time. I'm going to be 27 this year and I'm happier than I was when I was 18, but it didn't come without cost. Time doesn't just fly, my friend... that bitch teleports. Best not to predict where you'll end up, just smile when you get there.
I love how you fall into the snow. It really does show the shocking transition and all the other emotions that come with it. Im terrified to turn 18. I've always clung to my parents like a life raft and despite their insistence on me being fine, I'm scared.
On god, I just turned 31 last month and my wife yesterday it’s crazy. We met 8-9yrs ago. When you look back it hits in flashes like a flashback. and you think dang it’s really been that long. Where did time go😢💯
Time truly flies by. So my advice is to try and enjoy every second. Dont stay at a job you hate. Dont be in a relationship you dont want to be in. Do what you need to do to be happy. Dont live your life for other people. Because in the end, you will be with yourself and only yourself. And when that time comes you want to look back and reflect on your life and smile. Because you lived it on your terms. Dont do what I did. My time flew by because I worked hard to make someone else's life easier. I've realized I've been doing it wrong this while time. If I worked hard towards my goals instead of my employers I would be in their position. You got this
@@ScootsMcPoot This is crazy timing cause I put in my notice for my current job just last week. That's great advice you're giving out. I'll keep it in mind! Stay safe :)
Im going to be 16 in 3 months and it also freaks me out, ik im younger but just the idea of being an adult at like 18 or older freaks me out because I just dont think I'll be able to have a good job in order to buy the things I need :'|
As someone who turned 18 in august last year holy shit time went quick and is only going quicker, is actually scary that I have so much time left but it is still going so fast
Its not too bad tbh just means you get 90 more pages to write anything you want and make a glorious story , in the end its up to you whether you want to spend your time thinking about how much time you have left or do you wanna live the time you have left
When I turned 21, I had already developed a half a handle of vodka per day alcohol addiction. By 18 I was already on the road to addiction. By the time I was 25, I finally kicked the habit when I was put in a coma. Pretty much 2 years before my 21st, and 4 after, were just a blur. I don't remember half of what should have been the best years of my life. Now that I'm 28 years old, it seems like every year just gets faster, and faster, and faster. I'm noticing seasons coming and going way faster than they used to. It sucks. I wish I would've done something far more important with my life when I was still younger.
The best tip I can give is to not dwell on it. Enjoy your days, every day if you can. 17-20 flew by for me and I’m still sitting here at 23 wondering where the last bits of my childhood went lmao. Meanwhile then I was too concerned with trying to be an adult. Just enjoy your life.
I swear i have teleported to some lost place in the past and I feel like all these messed up things that are going on have to do with my life in some weird ways?
I get you I turned 18 in August. I've spent a lot of time thinking like that and I promise you it doesn't help any. Sometimes life is rough and that means you gotta take advantage of better times. If you're down you gotta put yourself in situations that will make you happier. The idea of turning 18 can seem like the end of everything you know and going to college is scary. The adjustment is scary but I think you'll find it's much easier than you imagined. I did it recently and honestly there's a lot of fun and new friends. I'm on break right now and it lets me experience life like it used to be, which is nice
The older you get. The faster time flies I'm still in my 20s but it feels like I j graduated not too long ago. Time truly flies. Make sure you do what matters to you
I’m turning 12 this year April to be a fact yeah I feel like I’m the youngest in this in the comment I am jealous and everybody in the comment because you guys are very order than me and I just want to get my childhood and teenage dream to come. I only have one more year one more year and then I’m a teenager.
