People from all across the age spectrum (including this group) use the term "college kids" to refer to folks that are generally 18-22. So if 22 is a kid, you are barely an adult. I'm not sure what all is making you feel old, but maybe having good people on your life can help. I have a spread of ages and it helps with perspective. I am middle age 🫣

No such thing. Ask away!
!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

I'm 34 and I still feel as young as I did at 24, I haven't experienced any fitness "degradation". However I don't have kids; I imagine if that happens and responsibility for another human kicks in it could feel a bit different 😅
Lol
I'm 58. You are a young woman.
You soldering stuff is pretty awesome. I just joined the other day and ran across your stuff.
Welcome to Lemmy. Thank you for the nice comment.
I have children older than you. It's a matter of perspective - I think anyone under 50 is young, and no doubt in 10 years time I'll think the same of anyone under 60. I don't feel that I really grew up until I was well into my 30s, and my career didn't really get anywhere before I was 40, but now before I know it I'm retired. Relish your youth - it'll pass soon enough!
Not a woman but I just turned 41 recently. Here’s the secret to life from here on out:
While your body keeps changing (slowly) your mind really doesn’t. So you’re going to feel the same as you always did! This is pretty cool!
It's all relative. I'm 62 - from my perspective you've only recently gone from being a girl to being a woman, so for sure a young woman. Of course in ten years I'll be 72 and you'll be 34, and I'd still call you a young woman.

Shut up.
As you get older, ppl younger than you just seem youthful at ages you've already passed. You're very young yet, don't even be stressing it for a long time to come
I would hope so
