A member asked:
I just wanna know if my chronic stress/ptsd i've had for 5 yrs can biologically make me 30 years old? i'm 18 now. feel washed up! look washed up.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No- Consider therapy: No. It will not make you physically 30 years old but the important thing is that you feel older and " washed up." chronic stress and ptsd is treatable and you should be evaluated for psychotherapy possibly with medication.
