I'll admit, I'm not as good with fiction, but learning the sorts of questions fiction writers use when writing is helpful too. I recommend looking at non-fiction so you can branch out and look at other sources if you're truly curious about the topic. Reading is important, but make sure it's something appropriately challenging that really makes you think. The biggest thing that I've seen that differentiates those who get dull as they get older and those who stay sharp is that the sharp people cultivate a sense of curiosity and engagement with the world around them. I'm going to try to offer the best advice I can give him, and support him as he goes through those issues. When he does, I'm not going to tell him it's because he didn't take care of himself (because he does). He's going to be facing issues as he gets older that I didn't face. I have literally no issues like that with my body. Knees and shoulders are well on their way to being shot, and blood pressure is way higher than it should be. His body has so many issues just from his genetics and sports that he played. I'm 38, and work out with a 23 year old (pre-Covid). One final note: not everyone ages the same way. What if, as in the case of the original post, they didn't experience a dulling of the mind in those 12 years? Seems to me that he only just recently started having these issues, so now is a good time to ask for advice. So in those 12 years, they are working with what they've learned from everyone who helped raise them. Someone who's 30 has at most 12 years of being independent (outliers exist, I know). If you are seriously having issues like this it's not because you turned 30 it's because you spent 30 years not taking care of yourself. This comment you made has more actual advice and support than your original comment. Don't know if I actually claimed anything, other than some people might have problems at that age.
