growing up? Why, why not? How old are you?

I'm 23 and I'm not really afraid of growing up or getting older. I feel like many people starts to stress when they're over 25 and stop caring when they're over 30.

I think that's a good way to think of it. It's important to do the tings that make us happy.

I basically wasted like 3 years between high school and uni doing part time jobs and being depressed in a small town and all the people hiring see it as a really negative thing and the pressure to have a resume with no gaps whatsoever is really high here if you want to work anything that pays more than 10€/hr.
I'm not afraid of growing up but I'm afraid of having a unhappy life and having to sacrifice the majority of my hours in a week to have enough money.
I think I'm gonna hate not being flexible in my private life anymore and adjusting to the workforce.

I do understand that point of view as well, but I also think that you can die at any age so I choose not to think about it. haha.

Yes, I'm only 21. Getting old just makes me feel closer to death even though I'm still very young.
I always get a bit depressed on my birthdays because of this. I try not to think about so much by doing the things I like or just going back to the stuff I enjoyed in childhood to make me not feel so old.

If I understood you correctly, It's kind of about being unsure of the future and what's going to happen?

Being a child was the most amazing time of my life I didn't have to worry about my future or anything else I could just be a kid

feature?
It's about not living up to the norm of what is expected of a person in the workforce to perform (hours/achievements) and having to sacrifice freedom for money.
