Dawn, I will be 32 on July 15th and I feel your pain. I was so depressed when I turned 30. I literally cried. I thought it meant I should act like a wife and mom and forget about having fun and I quickly found out that I was overreacting. I went and got a tattoo. :) I went and bought some trendy new clothes and went and got a haircut, a mani and a pedi. I was still a little depressed but mainly just thinking about the number 30. I am fine with my age until it is birthday time every year. I am starting to see, though, that life truly begins at 30. You are mature enough to know right from wrong, but still young enough to be young and act young. I wish I could tell you more to help you out, but trust me you will get over it. Just make sure to take really good care of yourself. Focus alot on your skin. Take good care of your face and invest in some good anti wrinkle cream. Seriously, I have a nightly regimen that takes at least 45 minutes every night. When I tell people my age they are astonished. You are gonna be okay, give it a couple weeks after your birthday and the blues will fade. Good luck.

The stress hit me when I turned 25. I know that sounds stupid but I realized I would be a quarter of a century. I cried for 4 days. 30 didn't bother me at all. I was working with a girl who turned 30 right before I did and she was a mess. She kept saying, I will be turning 30 and I'm not married, I don't have any kids and I don't even have a boyfriend. I was in the same position she was but I didn't care. She stressed enough for both of us. This past June 17th I turned 45. I have a beautiful 8 year old daughter and life is great. Just relax and enjoy. My 30's were great. My 40's have been good also. I have a few more creaks and pops when I stand up but I wouldn't trade it for anything.

It's only a number. What's the difference between 20, 30, 40 , or 50??? Nothing. It's all a state of mind.
Get over it??? Find something to do that reminds you of your teens or 20's and do it.

age is only a mile marker of how long we've been on the journey of life....age does not determine what kind of person you are, how you act, or the true nature of yourself....with age comes wisdom and knowledge....embrace it....love it...enjoy it....
