Wow. That's too bad. I was rather happy and bouncy-anticipatory about turning 30. I can't think of anyone I know who has dreaded 30, so I admit to some surprise to see this comment. Especially thinking that 30 is worse for women than for men. We don't age *that* fast.
Maybe I had some outstanding friends who were already over 30 as I was approaching it, so I was fortunate to be well aware in advance that it's a great age. I honestly can't think of a single example of someone falling apart at or around 30 due to age-related reasons. But even without that, looking solely at my own position and development, as far as I could see there was little to fear about 30.
By 45-50 you've got a different situation.
But 30? Naw. 30 is fun! I hope you find a way to enjoy it!
