Abso-bloody-lutely SadLynda, Dulciana, Taz2. Girls - stop thinking about being old FGS!!!!!
I am 62 and will be 63 in a few months time, and health permitting most certainly do not consider myself old!!!! Get out there - make the best of yourself and your life, embrace it all if you can. If there is something in your life that you are not happy with - then try to work out a solution, do things that make you healthy and happy, with friends and family or by yourself.
Babyjane - yes 60's can be fab!!!
The best thing any of you can do to stop feeling old is to lose weight if you are overweight and take more exercise and get out in the fresh air - you will feel heaps better if you are feeling glum/old. Also - it's February - for me the worst month of the year and especially this year as we haven't had a proper winter - no crisp clear sunny bracing freezing cold days with ice frost and snow ( unless you live in Scotland!). You will feel less old as spring and warm sunshine arrives!
If you have menopause symptoms - don't suffer them - take steps to eliminate or reduce them.
Yes we are all ageing - no point in bemoaning your lost youth but above all no need to feel old just because of this. Banish that idea from your head whenever it pops in! My mum is almost 88 and even she does not give in and accept her lot, despite being more tired and having aches and pains!
