Are there many over Fortys here?

[seamus]

Been here for a while and everyone here are good people, but I think I'm older than most here, I was wondering anyone over 40s out there and possibly could there be a separate Forum on here for the over Fortys?

 

[esclava]

I'm a part of the over 40 crew. Both feet in the grave, but society won't let me bury myself.

 

[IanUK]

Yep 60 this year and to get honest have spent most of that time battling suicidal thoughts

 

[Maravillosa]

I turn 55 in September and have, like @IanUK , battled suicidal thoughts most of my life.

 

[Regen]

42. Fighting with depression for 30 years.

51 everything turned to crap when I was 7

 

[TheGreatEscape]

I was 40 or 41 when I discovered this forum a few years back.

 

[OpheliasFlowers]

53 here. Childhood was crap due to dysfunctional family, poor physical health and childhood anxieties and shyness, etc. But my life went completely to hell around my early/mid 20s and only gotten worse in the time since. I wish I had more guts, I'd be gone by now...

 

[coffee]

I'm 42

 

[down for the count]

I am 49. I am old but haven't achieved anything.

 

[seamus]

I started to chronic blush when I hit puberty in 1981 (I don't have a shy bone in my body) ruined my life then started to get memory when I was in my fofties and realised I was abused pure nightmare existence

[fruit-loops]

42 here, fighting with life and acceptation from the beginning..

Yes, since the majority of the forum active members seems to be youngest, it would be very nice to have a proper space for the elder ones. I like to discuss with everyone, but I also thing that some perceptions can be different depending by age and prospectives. Don't you think?

 

[Chockles]

48 here & dont intend living u til r9. 2021 is my final year. I've had enough.

 

[I'm scared]

54..Unhappy child, rebellious teenager so guess was having fun,20s anxiety got worse..Late 30s was ok u til mid 40s..Last few years living hell

 

[Sittichmutter]

51

 

[avoid_slow_death]

47 here. Been depressed since I was 9 and suicidal since I was 11 when I made my first of many attempts.

 

[Disappointered]

Yes, I am.

Glad this thread is still going. I made a thread once suggesting a section for older people but it was summarily locked w/o explanation almost immediately.

Anyone is welcome to DM me (it's not really private, right? so I guess direct message is the correct term now? not sure), whatever their age but if older people want an older person to talk to now and then feel free to keep me in mind while I'm around.

I wonder if suicide rates will just keep going up for all age groups.

 

[TriggerHappy]

Fifty, fierce & completely fucked-up.
Still can't find my Off switch

 

[Fish Face]

49, and depressed since childhood. No help from the NHS at all, only damage.

 

[Naufrago]

38 years of fighting + 15 years dragging me = 53. Looks like the soul's gone, the carcass's been left.

 

[facel]

55 here. Been fighting a lot of things throughout my life,and had a breakdown and clinical depression over a decade ago but managed to bounce back, this time I'm not sure I've got the strength as everything turned to real crap again a few months ago.

 

[Beeper]

Mid 40's here. I was born broken but didn't realize the extent of it until my early 30's.

I continue trying to fight the battle, though I am tired of it.

This year has presented a few challenges that have brought me to the brink of extinction. I have ordered and received the necessary supplies for deliverance to the ethereal realm.
