[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]49 high school junior twins and an 8th grader. [b]I'm living with a lot of fear and anxiety over how quickly time is passing. [/b] We're doing college tours and I know that we only have about 18 months left with all 3 kids at home--this makes me incredibly sad. I really enjoy parenting teenagers but this phase goes so quickly. I also have two living parents and enjoy them more than ever before. We didn't always get along but now they are in this sort of the golden years of old-age: they're cute and independent and wise. So I guess I should be super happy. But I think I have anticipatory anxiety/depression about what is to come (loss of kids to college and parents to death). Geez. I probably need medication. [/quote] 49 with a high school freshman and a 6th grader and I still feel like this. I am seeing a therapist because I don't want to waste the time I have left with anxiety. This is to say, I'm with you.[/quote]
