焦慮與困惑
Lying About Your Age For The First Time
癥狀二:第一次在年齡上撒謊
Although you may have been worried about aging since you graduated from college, most of us don't start to really dread our birthdays until the mid to late-20s. If you just found yourself lying about your age for the first time, pre-30 angst may be kicking in。
即使你從大學畢業后就開始擔心衰老的問題,但我們中的大多數還是在25歲之后開始真正感到過生日的壓力。如果你發現自己開始在年齡上撒謊的話,那么你或許已經患上了30歲綜合癥。
Questioning The Value Of Past Achievements
癥狀三:開始懷疑過往的成就是否有價值
For some women, the insecurity of a pre-30 crisis inolves doubting their past accomplishments -- the wins at work and personal victories that you were once proud of might not seem to amount of much when you're focusing on the ways that your life has fallen short of your own definition of success。
有些女性的30歲綜合癥會表現在對過往成就的懷疑上。過去在工作中獲得的成功以及個人的一些成就,這些原本引以為傲的榮譽看起來并不是生活的重心,你開始對成功的定義有了迷茫。
