i am 27 today i am depressed! HELP.

Sorry to hear that getting older is something that depresses you but I think all you need is another perspective on the whole aging concept. It really isn't that horrible and besides in most cases age is but a number. Take care of yourself and keep things positive and perhaps you won't feel 'old'.

Regardless, you aren't old yet unless you believe yourself to be old. Oh and happy birthday lol

Thanks!.

yes i Guss i have an age complex now i dont know!!

HELP
If you think i am crazy i get that i may very well be! who know!
If you what to insult me about this i have no problem with that to

what do you think!???.

Are you having fun? Are you living the life you want to live? What are you looking forward to in the next year?

From this post i'm going to assume that the answer to the above questions is No, No and Nothing. That is the problem. You can't wait till the next lifetime to live the life you want to live now. Read that last line over again. Ok. Live in the present. Plan for a great and infinite future. Go do that thing you've always wanted to do. Go ask out that girl you've always wanted. You get the idea. When you're busy living the life you want and looking forward to the future you stop caring about getting older...but instead look forward to what the future brings.

I'm considerably older than 27. I myself am not living the life I want (not yet anyhow) but I'm working on it. I think my biggest thing is repudiating my past inasmuch as that's possible so that I don't repeat old, self-defeating behavior patterns.

Slightly off-topic: Even though I'm old enough to remember Jimi Hendrix when he was still alive, I totally refuse to land myself in the rut of thinking that no good music was made after the end of a certain decade. Nostalgia, at least too much of it, just drags you down and yes, makes you feel old. I go to clubs that feature new and interesting acts every chance I get. It's kind of a weird-out being the oldest guy in the crowd at a punk club, but as long as the other concert-goers don't mind, I don't either!

there is some awesome advice for you here love feet , hope you won't mind ift I throw my 2 cents into this.

I was in your boat for a long time. A few days before every passing birthday (and New Years Eve for that matter) I would get into a foul mood or very depressed. Here was another birth day or another year over and I would go through the list of things I have yet to accomplish. This past April I turned 30. I was dreading this birthday because I knew how I got on my past birthday.
I expected to wake up and be down in the dumps the day I turned 30, yet for some reason I woke fine. The difference was I changed the way I approach the birthday. I used to list all I have yet to accomplish; however, this time I listed all I have already accomplished. I woke on my 30th birthday feeling renewed.
Now almost 6 months into my 30s I can tell you I still feel like I'm in my 20s. Nothing changed. I'm still the person I was before but with one difference, I was able to say screw it and start enjoying my life. I am looking at my 30s as a do over of my 20s. In the past 6 months I did things I never did in my life that I always wanted to do. 2 weeks ago I took part in a 30 mile charity bike ride around New York City( something I wanted to do for a long time but held myself back because I thought I could not do it because I did not think I was strong enough), I went paragliding off a mountian in the Austrian Alps, I took an 18 day tour of Europe on my own with complete strangers with a company that specializes in travel tours for 18-35 year olds and made a buch of new friends from all over the world in the process, went to Disney World for the first time and acted like a 10 year old, took on a major new challenge at work that I could have passed of on someone else, and embraced my fetish after being ashamed of it for a long time by going to some tickle play parties and a munch. If I knew how awesome my 30s would be I would have turned 30 5 years ago if it were in anyway possible.
I understand how you felt at this past birthday, been there.
I still have more issues then Playboy, but I am dealing with them slowly and surely in my own time. I realized I am not punching a time card anymore.
Please keep in mind that attitudes change with the wind.
Try making a list of things you are looking forward to. It might help you deal with your next birthday or even this recent past one in a more constructive manner. Best of luck to you, hope good things start to happen for you.

Hi, I'm 31 and is not a problem.
I thought this way when I was near to my 30s, but now I can tell you that nothing has changed, just you don't have to think so much about it.
In addition, I can tell you that usually women prefer men in these ages.
Between 30s and 40s you're not too young and at the same time not too old for everything.

Thanks Kopfhorer and love feet, I guess sometimes you just got to take the bull by the horns and run with it. Life is too short.
