Worst fears when you get older?

[Sonic Shimmer 4,116]

Aging and the thought of slowly feeling my body break down scares me sometimes. I think I find it scarier than actually dying.

People close to me perishing.

Really just watching my life slowly fade away. I've had a bunch of health issues since I was a kid, so it kind of is a point of anxiety when it comes to growing older. Of course I know that aging and death is inevitable, but it's just one of those things that bother you anyways.

I have some fears regarding my health as I age, the largest one being problems regarding mental deterioration.

Loneliness pure and simple.

Tyranny, due to suffering it first hand

I never used to think about it much, but my biggest fear as I get older is knowing that one day I'll have to face living my life alone.  I'm hoping that day is very far in the future.

Mmmm one of my fears would probably be working so much that I may not be able to enjoy life. Right now that I am young, I am putting a lot of time in education so that I am working less harder during my 30s and so forth.

One of my worst fears is having to deal with the death of my parents. It's not something I ever want to have to live with.

Very true. On another note, there’s nothing worse for a parent than to have their children perish before them.

Losing contact with friends, not being able to make new ones, and feeling lonely for the rest of my life.
