What is it about turning 30 that makes people become souless hallowed out shells?

They might've lived a full life already. Other than having kids and grandkids you can do everything want to or need to do before your 30.

One of my old co-workers swore by the rule of 30, he said he lived his life, traveled the world Columbia, Brazil, Germany, Spain, Australia, Japan...lived in New York. Did everything he wanted to do, then decided at 30 to settle down have 2 kids. Says if he dies at 60 he lived 2 lives, if he dies at 90 he's lived 3.

He's done everything hes wanted that this point he's just making sure his kids have a chance to do the same. The remaining stages in his life are no longer about him. I think he has grand kids now.

I'll tell you why, its because people don't have an anchor.
An anchor can be a pass time.
Mine is going to the gym, thats my anchor
Gym has become a huge part of my life.
This happens over time i guess, loving the gym i mean.

If you dont have an anchor, some interest that is YOURS, not the family's but yours, then you will be unhappy.

If i didnt have it, i'd be depressed im sure.

Its really forced humility...you really think you the shyt when you 18-25...for pretty much no reason at all..when 30 hits and you figure out that real accomplishments are damn near miracles you will be humbled and brought back down to earth

I was depressed before I got to my 30's. No but seriously when you get to your 30's life is just different. You are now helping to care for your elderly grandparents, and your parents are starting to age. You have more responsibilities. I'm boring as all hell now. I work and go home. That is it.


My friends and I try to get together at least every 6 months... Even though just a few years ago we hung out all the time and now duty calls. Luckily none of my friends have kids... Neither do I. So that saves me from the look at the pictures of my kids and husband. I wouldn't say we are depressed I would say that things hit some people harder than others.

Such is life...
