Im 35, and the thought of living (possibly) another 45 years gives me anxiety and makes me depressed, how can i cope better…

it almost seems unfair that i was thrown into a life i never asked for.

i also have a crippling autoimmune disease causing severe arthritis in my spine and hips. my rheumatologist told me 12 years ago (at 23) that I had joints of a 60-65 year-old, doing basic things like grocery shopping and house chores wears me down quickly.

i just don’t want to get old.

i’m doing my best to take it day by day. but the thought of living the rest of my life gives me anxiety.

The older i get, it seems like time is flying by quickly…

Now that im 35 (almost 36), it feels as if time is flying by fast, the days and the weeks go by so quickly that i feel smothered by it.

it was never like this when i was in my 20s. and it overwhelms me sometimes,

i feel like im paying the same bills and rent every few days.

Im 35 and i feel like time is speeding up, the days and weeks fly by so quickly.

i live near a school, and it felt like kids just went back not long ago, and now they are off to summer break next month.. (the school year never went by this quickly when I was in school)

it feels as if im paying the same bills and rent every other day.

some days i think its still Tuesday, when im already on Friday. im like where the fk did Wednesday and Thursday go.

I enjoy life for the most part. but having such a long life makes me anxious and gives me anxiety. I never signed up for this, and was forced into life because of my parents. the thought of having 45 more years makes me sad.

I can't wrap my head around it, i can't comprehend it

The thought of eating dead animal flesh grosses me out, but i do enjoy fake meats like beyond or impossible burgers, knowing that they aren’t made of animal flesh doesn’t gross me out.
