Zero fucks at 40

[ThisCyanOtter]

Did anyone hit 40 then all the fucks they handed out like confetti suddenly stopped and they no longer gave a fuck about anything?

That's how I feel. Nothing matters anymore . Hate me. I can do without you. Can't be bothered with a conversation, I'll go on my phone. Teenagers don't finish their food.. starve if they want. I feel like I've had a personality transplant 😆

I was there by 30 tbh

That's me, but I'm 52!!
In fact I give - 0 fucks today!
Surgical menopause = brutal personality transplant! 😳

I'm deep in peri meno but sadly this hasn't happened to me yet. I'm still over thinking, feeling guilty and doing everything for everyone..

I'd quite fancy a bit of what you have.

Yes, yes and yes again.

Yes. I’m no longer compliant. Women younger than me seem to take the hit and run around trying to please people ( male bosses mostly), whilst I’m now older and could not give any fucks. It’s freeing.

By the way I’m 53

Yes. It started in my late 40's. It's quite refreshing to not give any.

Thank you so much beautiful women. One of the blessings of hitting 40 ... ive spent a lifetime being the the one that frets over what everyone thinks. It's liberating

Think it was around age 50 it hit me and 55 now and could not give a fuckity fuck at all. Wish I knew all this years earlier. Used to be obsessive with housework and effort to do it now.

I'm 42 and I've been hearing this way the past couple of years but it's kicked in all the time now. Unfortunately not only do I have zero fucks, I have the RAGE

I've never been generous with handing out fucks, but they totally ran out in my early 30s after I got divorced.

I see friends my age now (40) worrying about this or that inconsequential thing or what that stranger thinks of them or they can't wear X or do Y because what will 'people' think and am totally baffled by it.

Yes, it's been coming on gradually and it's great. Freeing, in fact.

Yes, me and it's freeing.

Yep, I'm in my 50's and I give zero fucks.
I used to be a people pleaser and it's very liberating to finally give no fucks.
I actually say "I don't care" if anyone wants to offload, be mean, fuck me about etc.
"I don't care" - there's actually nowhere for the other person to with that, it's not what they expect to hear.

Yep in the last few years. I have spent many years over thinking.

I'm 37 and I've been like this for quite a while. Maybe I'm an awful person, I don't care🤭

I ran out of fucks in my early 30s. Liberating. I'm now late 40s and gliding through life although stuck in peri and raging at night sweats!

It’s not really the menopause, though, it’s growing up and becoming wise. It happens to different people at different times.

I also have this charming combination.

My constant inner monologue is a combination of who cares / fuck off.

My only exercise is shrugging.

I’ve started on the gel HRT and I have no filter, not people pleasing and at times quite ruthless. It’s quite refreshing but I suspect becoming a bit of a bitch, but then I’m not caring about that either. Odd times

My constant inner monologue is a combination of who cares / fuck off.

It's liberating.

Yep. I'm like this and it feels great 😃

yep, the number of times I bite my tongue these days is crazy! I'm so much more picky about doing things I don't particularly want to do too.....see office xmas party as an example - I would usually have gone because I thought it was the expected to thing to do but really I don't enjoy so thought f* it, why should I waste a friday evening doing something I don't like. I pretty much told people that too if they asked why i wasn't going!

I'm 40 and yes. It began in the pandemic and grew legs. Very liberating.

Yes! I'm 48 and my field of fucks is not just barren, it is no longer a field it has been concreted over to make a car park
