It can depend on how far along you are at various ages...like if you're 32 and living with your parents, I'd worry. But in general, the answer is 47.
Age 8 1/2, I guess. I changed grades and was younger than everybody else.
Maybe "worrying" isn't the right word, but I was very aware of it.
I was literally about seven when I started worrying that one day my grandparents would die. At the same age I would go on a two week holiday with my parents and they would find me crying after a few days that the holiday was almost over. I am almost 40 now and still don't like change.
4. I was told I was too old for my soother. I knew right then that ageing was a mother f-ucker.

Each year that I am close to the next decade worries me the most...:(
I assumed you meant worrying about getting older? For me, 19. I really knew I didn't want to turn 20 and leave my teens. 20 was on my way to being an adult and the real world and I didn't want any part of that.
I'm 29 now and I was right to be worried.

Wow, i think you are joking here... but 47 is indeed the age i started to worry!
I turned 40 09/11 and DGAF about my age. You limit yourself by the paradigms you enforce. Realize that you are the music makers. You are the dreamers of dreams.
Why would your age worry you? It's your health that should concern you. There are obese 8yr olds with hypertension and diabetes who should be gravely concerned but aren't.

Not my age per se, more just having to grow up. I wanted to stay a teenager forever. Only big responsibility is school, running is my life, summers off, don't really worry about making money besides an easy summer lifeguard job. Whole life still in front of you and you can dream about the future.
A lot more fun than the reality that is the real world.
Might not use the term "worried" but at 60, no matter how fit I am and young I feel, the clock is ticking louder because lets face it, how many people live past 80.
So, mortality starts flitting across your mind more often. In some ways, and I know it's a cliche, but you value life more
I seriously have never worried about aging, I enjoy the ride, the only thing I worry about is making it to retirement so I can live like when I was a kid on summer vacation and not have to get up and go to work every day.
I intend to start obsessively worrying about my age in 4 years 3 months and 7 days. It is truly going to suck. I am 48 right now and we all know what will happen in 4 years 3 months and 7 days.
May peace be with you my brothers and sisters.
You'll know, because you'll always be injured and realize that if you want to stay healthy you have to do all that stretching and extra rehab/prehab exercises that you were avoiding.

When I caught my reflection in a department store mirror. I didn't recognize myself at first - then I realized, "Crap! I look old!" After that I didn't worry about it but it definitely was more on my mind than it used to be. I was 54 when that happened.
When I saw some gray hairs and noticed my hair was thinning - somewhere around 38. Now 50, I am totally gray and have a bald spot, but couldn't care less.
i stressed about turning 30.. then after i turned 30 i felt silly for having stressed about it
i looked forward to turning 40 - had the chance to win some cash in the masters division at races
i've never really worried about my age..
it's just a number...
Age 2. I realized that my age had doubled in one year. If this keeps up,....
