How do you cope with getting older?

[AustrianPainter]

I feel really depressed and anxious about how fast time is going. What caused me to become increasingly aware of this was observing how fast 2020 seemingly went by and it's honestly terrifying. I constantly lament on my childhood, especially my high school years. I know that I was miserable throughout high school but when I look back on these times I subconsciously see them in a warm and comforting way. The times when I was the happiest would be between the ages of 7 and 12. I know for a fact that these years were when I was my happiest and will probably be the peak of my life. I'm 18.5 right now, and I really hate it, I hate being an adult, I hate having to worry about finding a job, I hate having to worry about other financial stuff, AND I ABSOLUTELY FUCKING HATE POLITICS. I wish I could be a kid forever, I used to think about how cool it would be to be an adult, thinking that I would have a nice mansion, nice cars, e.t.c. Instead I'm just a poor autist. How do you all cope with this?

Aging is a good thing. Every day is closer to death.

 

[Copexodius Maximus]

There is no cope for aging.
The unabomber said that acceptance of the aging and progress into different stages of life are only present when an individual is able to properly able to go through the power process.

I'll be 30 in 2 months. Well anti aging diet are pretty much the only thing that makes me feel confident. I feel like i look younger than my age, sure you can call it cope but... When i was drinking i always had to show my ID, they actually thought i was under 20. I see alot of foid cashiers who i think is 25+ years old but i actually found out they're not even 20 JFL, that also makes me joyful, even if it doesn't matter for them since they live life on easy mode anyway.

You don't, the arrow of time is unstoppable.

Just keep coping and doing shit that I like
Not spending time with foids really makes you have a bunch of free time which if used right can make you happy. I like exercising because it makes me feel good
I like reading books because it helps me understand things better
I like playing the guitar even though I suck because it's fun
And I like to watch anime because it's a fun escape from the mundane everyday life.
Find stuff that you enjoy and you wont notice getting older. I started thinking like you around 18 too, now I'm 20 and yet it bothers less than it did then because I found stuff I enjoy and good copes.
It's either the cope or the rope my friend...

How do you pay your bills?

I am ok with getting older. A lot of people are patronizing to me and treat me like shit at work and such because i look like a child with my baby face. Maybe someday I’ll actually look my age and have less shit to deal with in life because i have enough right now

Do inmates pay bills?
I'm not officially an inmate but for all intents and purposes, i might as well be one,spending 99% of my time within the same four walls.

Because when you're young you still have hope. When you get into your thirties you truly start to lose hope and there is something freeing about that. Like a weight has been lifted off your shoulders.

Beer, video games, too much porn, energy drinks, cigarettes - the usual
