Seventy-seven percent of middle-age Americans (35-54 years old) say they want to return to a time before society was “plugged in,” meaning a time before there was widespread internet and cell phone usage. As told by a new Harris Poll (via Fast Company), 63% of younger folks (18-34 years old) were also keen on returning to a pre-plugged-in world, despite that being a world they largely never had a chance to occupy.
35 is middle-aged??
I’m 36. Been feeling midlife crisis-y for at least a year. My body’s on the decline (not bad but I obviously passed my peak), I’m terrified of illness, time feels like it has truly shifted into high gear. I’ve just been trying to embrace my middle age lol
…my bones hurt, now.
Yes?
I mean… if life expectancy is 76.4 years then “middle” is 38.2… 35 is a reasonable approximate start to the “middle” age.
34, here. I’m still a youth!! XD
Amen to that sister!
