I especially have noticed it for about the last year or so in terms of music. Still finding new artists just not listening to them as much. But, in ways I feel I’ve regressed in terms of maturity in that I’m living like a university frat boy or worse a high school teenager. Just got carried away with music therapy, going to the movies, the sexy posters etc. I feel so lost and afraid, especially about the future. I know it could be worse, but I’m questioning not just who I am, the person I’ve always been. It really feels like it’s all ending and I know I’m not the only one who does.

I’m 53 and I feel older than I am. Abilify gives me stiff muscles so I feel 90. I’m still 23 mentally though

We’re all concerned about the future.
Dunno what else to say, except take it easy and try to live in the moment. Maybe your worries will lessen.

feel ? I already look old
I’m 58 years old headed towards 60 soon.
Yeah I’m always fatigued so I am feeling older than my age.
Sometimes my 88 year old father has more energy than me!

What trips me up is that I no longer share many of the same cultural referents as the generations that followed me. I had a younger co-worker who was living with his parents and was frustrated by constant surveillance from his mother (he was 21 at the time). I commented that it must be like living under the gaze of The Eye of Sauron. He just stared at me.
It had never occurred to me that there are people who have not at least seen the LotR movies. All of my friends and I had read and re-read the books as youth then binged the movies as adults.
