How Old Is Everyone?

[hollyberrytea]

Just out of curiosity, because I feel like a lot of people are married and have kids. I feel relatively young compared to a vast amount of you. (but that wouldn't stop me from being friends with anyone, hehe.)

I'm 20! :3

Minimum age requirement for members is 18 years of age.

I know Nicolette, but it's nice to know if there's someone closer to my age, rather than 40, you know? )x

Trying to connect with some peers.

Of course one would want to hang socially with those of your age group. But the issues most deal with are generally not particular to any age set.

Age is only a number. I might read a post of yours and have a lightbulb moment. JMHO I personally would not want to ignore because you are 20!

If I relied on peers, I'd probably be dead by now. I like a mixed bag age group and like to be in the middle. But I'm sliding slowly to the elder group. I'm going to be 53.

Too old wise and experienced! LOL

I'm 18. To me, part of what is nice about this place is the fact that people are all different ages, have all sorts of different views and experiences, and yet relate to a lot of each other's feelings and issues. Have to admit though, I feel quite young too. Welcome, by the way. :)

Thirty-something. Just like the tv show. Oh wait, you weren't born yet. No matter, I'm nothing like anyone in that show.

There's a good mix of ages here. I don't think that age is necessarily going to determine who you're going to identify with as some get married and have kids at 18 and others are much older and single with no kids.

Personally I think PTSD can skew the traditional life path. Not that everyone is meant to be on that path, but I think you may know what I'm getting at.

I'm 21. It's weird to be here with a lot of much older people and have a lot in common. But it'd definitely not a bad thing :)

34 going on 94 sometimes just 4 depending on the day, age is not a barrier, just a little hurdle, yip I am really only 34. I think PTSD just affects everyone no matter age, it is nice though to have peops your own age to talk to but I also know from experience those of us who have had PTSD since we were young more often than not have grown up faster anyway, we're just oldies with less wrinkles
