Completely walking away from sports you followed with passion your whole life because you just aren't interested in learning the next crop of pros. Also, you know the way money and politics and other things force things in sport and it takes the fun out of it...same can be said for music.
That you are alive is the surest sign.

Sorted that for you
Pain. Just pain and exhaustion doing everyday things. Recovery time from the same pain taking longer and longer as time goes on.
I'm not even 30 yet, and it really puts a damper on things.
You might want to get that checked out. You shouldn't be feeling pain to that level in your 20s. I'm 40+ and do not have pain and exhaustion from everyday things. I work outside daily on my farm as well. So you really shouldn't be feeling this at 20.
About 50% of it is probably obesity, the rest... well, chronic pain is very common in my family.
Are there any people in your family that are not obese that have chronic pain? If not then Iβll bet itβs closer to 100% due to obesity.
You only get one life to live⦠eat right and exercise, you can do it! I am half way to my target weight after 6 months of busting my ass and I feel a million times better.
Yea that combo will do it.

Finding grey hair in your beard. The first time I started to feel older was once I found a couple grey hair in my beard. None in my hair, just beard
My uncle had pretty much all hair grey by the time he was ~32. Not sure it applies that universally.

When I get up after sitting on the ground for a while my knees are stiff.
Get off my lawn.
Less birthday parties for you, more for younger folks.
People at a store ask if I want the senior discount...hurumph rude! LOL
Doing an oil change, rotor and brake pad change in same day, means my back and legs are sore for a few days after
I didn't get a harumph from that guy!
People will tell you. Worst I've had is a pulled back muscle from sneezing while leaning forward in my chair.
Get off my lawn
Itβs daytime. Or nighttime. Or evening or morning. Or you donβt know what time of day it is but youβre conscious. Any of these situations indicates aging is happening.
Random ass hairs growing on your ears
They grow that high for you?
Iβve noticed my passions arenβt as sudden, but they burn deeper and longer.
My 60th birthday.
When the authorities ask why you haven't taken the carrousel rite yet.
