    As sad as it is i don't laugh too much any more now that i think about it. i can remember when i was younger and on an occasion or two my friends and i would burn a joint and just laugh uncontrollably.......... i miss those days.
    I turn 50 later this month and i have never had a birthday affect me like this one. i can't put my finger on why but it sucks. i have been really depressed as of late and i shouldn't be.
    Sorry for the ramble but THANKS for the chuckle

    I know exactly how you are feeling. I turned 50 in April. And that birthday hit me hard too, it takes a couple of months to get past the idea that you have more time behind you than you do in front of you.

    My health anxiety kicked in reAlly bad, it had taken a couple of months for that to settle down.

    Hang in there, 50 isn't bad, and someone tolde me 50 is the new 30. Not sure I want to repeat 30 but what the hell.

    I can well believe this. Sometimes I do jigsaw puzzles or play mahjong to calm down. Really helps me

    I do jigsaw puzzles too. Really helps to let your mind go blank and just search for the pieces.
