So I've been trying to figure out if I'm actually scared of time passing, or if I'm just obsessing too much. I was triggered in early Febuary when my boyfriend casually said "time moves so fast that the next thing we know, it'll be this time next year." That comment freaked me out cause it was something that I've felt scared of before but not like this. I've been depressed and very anxious that my life is just passing me by.

My daughter will be going to high school this year and I'm wondering where did the time go. In turn, I worry about what I'll do when my kids are gone and that thought really scares me, too.

I think it's this sudden fear that's really affected me over the last 4 months and I don't know if the things I do to cope are helping since I still obsess about the worry. I've always had the fear of death, though. This also makes me worry if I'll be anxious as a senior... I'm only 34.
