Do you keep physically active? I am a couple of years older. The main thing I notice is that I want more sleep and have trouble getting it.And the grey hair.


I don’t have a workout regime but I do walk a lot. I have adhd so can only take staring into the abyss of dancing colors (my laptop) for so long. I wfh and there’s a coffee shop and small grocery store that is a 30min walk round trip from my house. I make that walk maybe 2 or 3 times a day.

I don’t sleep that well but am working on it. Ever since I had my first kid (15 years ago) the slightest noise or interruption in the middle of the night and I’m 100% awake ready to rock. I was the night duty parent for both kids so that’s where that comes from I assume.

In my 20s and early 30s I did a lot of drugs and was blackout drunk two nights per weekend. Having kids and a no nonsense/assertive wife put an end to that with the side effect of dramatically improving my health and career.
