  I loved my late forties, and I love being 50. A lot is hard for me right now but the good things are good and I’m grateful for feeling like I fit in with my friends and at work.

  Then what? Continue peaking, or does happiness return?

    I haven’t read this study, but I’ve heard most people tend to be their happiest after their kids move out, and near retirement. You have more time to do the things you want, have more ‘extra’ cash than before, and are still in decent health. Obviously this is on average and varies by person.

      People have kids that can move out? And they have money for retirement? I’m guessing this isn’t in America…?

      Maybe don’t have kids in the first place if they make you unhappy.

      Besides, if the kid had a say in it I doubt they would consent if they knew what kinda future they were heading into.

  Fuck that. Starting tomorrow, I’m drinking even more. I don’t wanna live to my 40s if it’s gonna get even worse. Got almost 3 years to completely destroy myself and I’m sure as hell gonna try.
