I'm 34 and a half. I don't even have my first Grey hair but I feel fearful about the years I'm approaching. It feels I'm a far cry from 40, 39, 38, 37, or even 36. But sometimes it feels like some people online talk about mid life crisis at 35: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/women/life/ ... llennials/
Of course I'm not sure how this works for different people with aspergers. I feel like saying why can't people aspergers feel forever young in their minds and say they won't let age get them down. It sometimes feels like as a woman with autism, I can't tell if my mind is my actually age, or if I'm a teenager or even younger. It is funny how they say as soon as a woman gets pregnant at 35 and over they call this mid life motherhood. Yet they still say people are still young at 35, 40 up to sometimes 50.
