Milestone birthday today and feeling emotional

[Megabustravelling]

It's a milestone birthday of mine today and I've woken up feeling really tearful and emotional. Totally fine the last few days and it's sort of hit me out the blue. I don't feel like I am bothered as such about moving into a new age decade. Anyone else ever feel like this?

Sometimes - maybe because I don't feel all that appreciated and nobody makes the effort for me that I do for them!

I hope that's not the case for you though. Time passing is hard and makes me think of those that have gone on before, I guess also that I'm getting older and it'll be me getting old and infirm eventually.

Sorry - that sounds maudlin!

I hope you have a lovely birthday and here's to your next decade full of adventure and happiness!

Happy birthday @Megabustravelling hope you're having a lovely day and here's to a fab next decade!

Oh and I'm approaching a milestone birthday and feeling out of sorts. Like @MrsJakeLovell I feeling under appreciated too.

The anticipation in the year before your milestone birthday is always the worst, once the milestone has been you will feel no different, what age you are is merely a number.

Have a lovely birthday 🍰🍸

It's my birthday too and I think the time of year doesn't help? I've never really been bothered about my birthday because it's in that period where time just stands still between Christmas and New Year. Hope you manage to feel a bit happier at some point, just wanted you to know I get it x

Happy birthday

I have a big birthday next weekend that I have been dreading for a long time.
I agree with bearfood that the time of year doesn't help. For me, the build up to the excitement of Christmas is gone, Christmas holidays are over and I'm facing another year another year older

Birthday greetings Megabust!
It's only one day, back to normal tomorrow.

Mine is next week.

I'm feeling really anxious in the run up to my big milestone Birthday.
I've felt it approaching for this last year and it just feels so old. I don't feel the age I will be but it reminds me time is ticking...
In reality however it is just one day and it's just a number. You will still be exactly the same the day after as you were the day before.
I see those I looked up to when I was younger and see they are older than me and still doing their thing. Makes me feel better

Thanks all, I've given myself a bit of a talking to.

I feel very lucky and blessed in my adult life but I guess I thought I'd have a baby by now after a long journey of ttc which is probably the undercurrent of how I'm feeling and in actual fact, today is no different than yesterday or tomorrow.

@bearfood happy birthday to you too!

Happy birthday! 🎂

If it’s any consolation, the one you’re facing (if I’ve guessed right) is probably the worst. From now on they definitely get better!

Have a lovely day 💐
