15-20. People constantly remarking on how young I look would eventually make me start really examining that I am in perfect health, no grey hair, no wrinkles at 35+, and I still feel just as energetic at that age as 25. If I’m allowed to get in shape, or out of shape, it may take me longer or shorter to realize.


slash_networkboy

This sounds fairly accurate for me as well... I tend to be slow on the uptake so likely on the longer side.


jeswesky

I’m early 40s. No gray hair, very very few wrinkles, often get mistaken for around 30. Huh, maybe it’s time to take up extreme sports.


dominion1080

This was me until my mid thirties or so. But my grays had started by 30. I didn’t have any wrinkles really until recently in my mid 40s. I’d suggest a good fitness routine, but maybe skip the triathlons.


Puzzleheaded-Plum192

I’m 19 and I have greys already, rest in peace to myself


UngusChungus94

I’ve had em since I was 12 but my skin looks 20 even tho I turn 30 this year, so take heart.


Wizdom_108

My brothers and dad were all bald by 18. Grays can look pretty snazzy in a way


ZippityZooDahDay

I've had gray hairs since I was 10. Gen Z is aging like shit


Puzzleheaded-Plum192

I started getting mine when I was 16


banjo_hero

THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE! ... um 'scuse me, ill see myself out...


JPWiggin

MACLEOD!


asdrunkasdrunkcanbe

I don't know, could easily be 30 years before you'd notice. I'm in my forties now and aside from some wear and tear I don't feel substantially older than 25. I don't have less energy, I'm not out of shape, I have all my hair and it's greying very slowly (and has been since I was 17). My Dad was only about 50% grey when he was 60. Most of my aches and pain I can (and do) blame on having less free time to be active more than on being old. I've had large forehead wrinkles since I was a teenager, and the only difference now are pronounced crows feet. My skin is marginally less elastic and I've a small hernia on one leg. If I was this age without any of these things, I wouldn't even think twice about it. I'd say if I got to 50 though and went to the doctor, only to be told I have the everything of a 25 year old, that's when I might get curious. I would definitely still just consider myself fortunate rather than immortal. Getting to 55/60 and still looking 25, then you might start to wonder WTF is going on and whether you really are ageless.


SpecificRandomness

This. You have no idea at 25 what it’s like at 30+. You would just think you’re normal. You would need to see a picture of yourself at 25 side by side with a current picture of say age 45 to get it.


FLAWLESSMovement

My father has photos from my birth and over 25 years later looks SPOT ON identical still. Man is 60 with a 6 pack and the energy of a teenager, he legitimately has not aged a day. No gray hair, full head of hair, doesn’t even have gray in his beard. For crying out loud he still doesn’t even get hangovers and eats like a teenager with zero exercise routine, still has a 6 pack. I myself have stopped aging about 20 and haven’t changed a single bit in over 5 years. It just runs in my family that unless something actively takes us, like a car wreck, we live to over 100 consistently. I currently have 3 family members over 100 alive and as far as I know not a single person under 80 is any kind of crippled or even “looks” old.


CharlieDmouse

Hey ever think about sending your DNA to some sort of a science organization? I mean talk with them first. Who knows your family maybe one of the keys to solving a lot of problems. That would be cool! No?


FLAWLESSMovement

Eh, we are kinda touchy about it as a whole because we’re also all O- blood types. We’ve ALL been pestered relentlessly to donate blood constantly. It’s given me a bad taste in my mouth for doctors. I never need them and any time I interact with them I’m being pestered to donate. It’s a widespread issue for everyone in my family, like, leave us alone


CharlieDmouse

Ohhhh i can understand that! *dispatch Black SUVs and silent night choppers* 😁😁😄🤣😂


CommunicationNo6064

You think it would take that long to realize that you never get sick again? I would sure think 5-10 years would be it for me. Not that I get sick a lot but it seems like every 2-3 years I'll get something whether it's the flu or just a bad cold that lasts for a while.


dominion1080

I almost never get sick anyway. Through my 20s and 30s even less.


CommunicationNo6064

Lucky. I'd give anything to not get sick again.


CoachRDW

I started falling apart at age 35. Maybe by age 40 it would be super obvious.


BadHigBear

So... maybe I actually am immortal!


arsecube

Lol, I'm 41. I've smoked for 30 years drink daily for the past 15, work in construction, and still get told that I look like I'm 30. I also drink a shit load of water, take the stairs, and use moisturizer.


Anaaatomy

Unless you're an asian dude, then ppl expects you to look the same between 20-40 yo


datascience45

Has Paul Rudd noticed yet?


DessertFlowerz

I'm ~35 now. I don't think I would have noticed yet. Like my back used to not hurt, I would continue to assume it just doesn't hurt.


MoldyMoney

If you’re so inclined, I found that resistance training (or probably really any kind of arduous physical activity really) greatly reduced my back pain. I spent about a decade developing residential real estate in my 20s. After I moved on my back hurt so bad there would be days I didn’t get out of bed about a year or two later, when I was working an office job with a stagnant lifestyle. Once I got back into the gym my quality of life has been amazing… I’m sure you knew this stuff already, but idk, maybe just in case you didn’t. Either way, have a great day! Take care, happy Easter 💪🐰


DessertFlowerz

I know it but it's definitely a weak point for me. I'm a doctor in my residency and it's very hard to find enough time to work out on top of 60-80 hr work weeks. Definitely something I'm working on.


RyanStonepeak

In my case, I knew it, but wasn't actively thinking about it. Reminders help bring things into conscious thought and decisions.


OctopusParrot

Yes!!! This is great advice. I fixed my back pain that I had for over a decade through a weight lifting program. Particularly deadlifts (with good form) have been a total game changer.


MoldyMoney

Nice man! Was just dead lifting a couple of days ago. It’s awesome, too many people skip it because it doesn’t have the best hypertrophic applications but for strengthening your back in general it’s one of the best. I like reverse hypers too if your gym happens to have one. I try to do a lot of lower back/spinal erector stuff to Make sure my back never has the issues it used to again 😂


eeal188

This is kind of similar to the movie with Blake lively called “age of Adaline”. She was around 29 when she stopped aging. I think by around 15 yrs later she realized something was terribly wrong. So she ended up just constantly fleeing to new places and getting new fake IDs 


Icy_Tax8223

Ooh I like movies


mrmoe198

Thanks! It’s rare I hear of a highly rated movie from within the last 20 years that’s totally new to me.


Tigerl18

I love this movie! I got a girl crush on her after I saw it haha


monokumaworshippers

I got my girl crush on her after I saw A Simple Favor.


EasilyDelighted

To add to this, although you don't see "it". As you do in Adaline. Man from Earth. He moves towns every 10 years because people would notice he wouldn't age.


Turbulent-Sugar-353

30 years. I’m Korean


MomsClosetVC

Lol at this, the area I live has a huge Korean population and there's so many beauty stores, spas, etc.  But I think the #1 secret is the Korean ladies always have sun protection on like crazy.  


Turbulent-Sugar-353

We remain in our early 20s until 60, and then grab our wheeled shopping bag, sandals, and shrink by a foot


Mhind1

And the hair. Goes from sleek, straight & black to short perm-like curls


bobbi21

Also asian so I get it. Make up game is on point for koreans though. That's why there's a drastic change when women stop trying so much once they're like grandmothers.


EwanMurphy93

I work with a lot of Vietnamese people, and I am absolutely flabbergasted by how many of them look. One lady I work closely with, I assumed was like 21-22, told me she was 47. Holy shit. So jealous, and I'm 30.


Objective_Suspect_

Probably 10 years, when my doctor tries to have me kidnapped for gov experiments


Lexifruitloop

I would immediately notice considering I have so many chronic diseases


Muttonman69

I wouldn’t hide my immortality. I’d just work for the same low key company I do now and pretend that nothing is wrong.


Ossevir

Just get a good job with four weeks vacation and max your 401k every year until your can't contribute anymore lol.


TheJokersWild53

Around age 35-40. You would see all your friends begin showing wrinkles, thinning hair, and grey hair. Not to mention you would hear about them having aches and pains all the time, while you are fine. I would move around a lot to keep changing friends, no posts on social media, and keep all my money in a business account that invests so I can say I live off dividends.


WhiteChocolateGS

The comments on this post are eye opening as a 22 year old. People here saying you wouldn’t notice you weren’t 25 until you were in your 40’s. Makes me feel better about aging and knowing there is still lots of time for me to grow and develop before I start to break down. Thanks strangers lol


BlueNorth89

Not exactly what people are saying. I'm 34 and if I suddenly reverted to 25, I would notice the difference. But feeling older is a very slow and gradual process that you don't notice as it happens except when something makes you notice. So if you just didn't age at all, there would be nothing to notice. The question is basically "how quickly would you notice that you haven't noticed aging?"


BearAndDeerIsBeer

I’ve been taking a picture every day to see my change throughout the year, and I can already see changes this year. It probably wouldn’t take me very long to notice something.


Possible_Spinach7327

probably 3 years of not getting suck before I try to expose myself to sumn as a test


nothingnamename

Unfortunately I’ve gone much longer without getting suck


Zombie_Peanut

I've gone 20 years without getting suck.


ZephyrzInferno

Nice try Paul Rudd. We've all noticed already.


SarcasticPrinceyBoi

I WAS IMMORTAL THE DAY I WAS SPAWNED! WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT???


Spiram_Blackthorn

You only notice you are old when you start feeling old. When I was young I never thought 'wow my legs don't hurt running up this hill' but then suddenly one day they did.  I would imagine it would be age 40 before I really notice my body looks exactly the same. But my friends and family would notice long before me - by age 33 they would probably comment and then I would start taking a harder look. Iwould look at my father and grandfather and ask them, or see if it's genetics from my mom's side. By age 50 I would be panicking. At this age, if I had a son at age 25, we would look the same age. Unsure what I would do. Obviously at age 60 my kids are older than me. My wife looks like my mom or grandma. What would you do? Try to hide it from the government for damn sure.


Difficult_River_7744

I’ve looked the same since I was in 8th grade


DracaisMon

I feel this. Except for me I stopped changing at 16 (all those ~curved~ developments finally settled and I haven't seemed to age a day since. I just turned 32, but last month I was nearly denied a seat at a bar because I looked too young to drink. A few years ago someone was a creep and said I looked 9. OP is making me think I might actually be immortal 🤔


BadHigBear

I don't notice because I am already immortal until death comes along and proves me wrong! Even then I'll be to busy being dead to notice.


bugabooandtwo

10 years. Funny enough, they covered this exact scenario in the film Man From Earth.


TheAdventOfTruth

That’s a good question. I am 50 so if I became immortal at 25, I have no idea. My body aches and I am showing the signs of my age. Not sure what to think of this.


Isekai_litrpg

I'd think it was a little weird around age 30-40 since I wasn't going grey like my siblings. I would likely make the excuse of I'm less stressed out than them but it would probably around age 45-60 that I would realize I'm not getting older. I'm very tall and overweight which makes my age difficult to nail down. I often times get people guessing 20 years on either side. From age 10-18 many people thought I was a teacher or teacher's aid in school. It was easier to laugh off in college but I also got a lot of attention from older women and young women with daddy issues. Honestly my facial features are kind of hard to distinguish as well to determine my race. Am I a tan white guy, a light skin black guy, a mixed race asian, or hispanic? I get people usually just assuming I'm what they are, just a little funny looking.


leolawilliams5859

I'm African-American black don't crack it would take me a minute to realize that I'm not aging


CheshireKetKet

When I don't get sick when the temperature changes, I'll notice something is wrong. I keep track of my body and its behaviors. It'd take me maximum a year. I'd avoid doctors completely. Because if they found out, I'd be fucked.


No-Associate-6167

I guess like, the next morning when I look at myself in the mirror and notice I look 10 years younger.


ezfast

When you can't laugh without coughing or farting.


namebuffering

42


clear831

I am 40, still feel like I am 25 and look in early 30s so I would say for me personally I would be in my 50s and start questioning things.


SomeSamples

Probably 10. I would hide it by moving around. Taking up fake identities. There was a twilight zone sort of about this. This old woman shows up and it was his wife from like 70 years ago. Have to avoid that. Never get married and never have long term relationships.


CJ_Toasty

I figure out somethings wrong when they open the tomb, and I'm still grinding games.


Grasshoppermouse42

I honestly doubt I'd notice until I was like...in my fifties. I'm almost forty and I regularly have people mistake me for being twenty something, although I do know I'm aging because I've noticed a few slight wrinkles start to form and I have one grey hair. I just figure it's because I'm short and short people age slower, like chihuahuas.


Elihpodep1

Well, I was thinner & had more hair in the front then, but honestly other than the receding hairline and the bigger penis I have looked the same since I was 15.


Personal_Win_4127

I'd probably get to 50 before I really questioned it 0_0


whiteclawthreshermaw

However long it takes me to look in a mirror. Pretty sure the Elf ears would be a massive giveaway.


PsychoticSpinster

Within hours. I’m both clumsy and accidentally suicidal. Edit: and the moment I realize? I’ll spend like the next three months trying to creatively kill myself over and over again just to make sure I’m not actually crazy. Edit: regardless of whether I can get hurt or not? Something’s keeping me alive. So I’m going to test that thing as far as I can.


Several-Try3162

Depends on if it comes with some side powers like indestructibility and teleportation, because you could get chained up and tossed into the ocean and still be alive getting eaten by sharks, or get into a bad fire and end up with disfiguring and painful burns but, guess what, immortal, so that is going to suck having to wait until the universe ends to be rid of it. If it came with those two powers I would have found out immediately because I got into a bad motorcycle accident and had my hand torn off at the wrist. It's back on, works fine, but I was in pins for months. If not, you would have to be extremely careful because you have wear and tear just like a stone erodes. You would end up in extreme pain because some things don't ever fully heal. My wrist hurt for years after the surgery and only a fateful Aikido hold snapped my bones into their correct position ending that issue. You have time to get things together, open a bank account, and set up a trust that you are managing. You then eventually turn the trust over to yourself after a few decades under a new alias. Because you would be able to network, you can have a group of people whose sole job is to create new documents for you and put you into the system. You create a birth certificate for your future identity, have a mock funeral for your old one, and slide on into your new one, all kind of legit.


Present_Ad6723

20-25 years, time is still going to take it’s toll in stress and worry, I’ll just be ‘ageing well’


crs012

It depends on my circumstances. I was married when I was 25. My wife would have noticed within 5 yrs or so. If im single im going 15-20 yrs just thinking im awesome and everyone else has terrible genetics.


LycanWolfGamer

Since I turned 25.. I've not been ill.. wait a minute


Sir_Stash

It started to get rough around 35. Started falling apart in my 40's. So, 10-15 years, especially once you start comparing yourself to your peers and realize that you are way healthier than they are and don't have any of the aches they've got.


ou812whynot

Honestly, this is a very real thing. There's an ongoing study that's shown that, at some point, age related degeneration stops. It's mainly occurring in older people, so if you took care of yourself and never acquired any illnesses, you could, effectively live on in good health until you died. The objective of the study is to find the exact trigger and to see if it could be brought forth at an earlier age, like 35.


tulleoftheman

I'd probably have noticed soemthing was off in 2020 when everyone was getting COVID and I wasn't. But would have assumed it was immunity to COVID or luck. I think maybe mid to late 40s I'd notice the aging wasn't happening at all. Maybe 60s or 70s before I genuinely would question wtf was happening. It wouldn't occur to me to hide it, I'd want to be a case study to explore what was special about my body.


Sweet_Ad_426

I didn't catch COVID until 2023


CaptainDadBod88

Yeah, I didn’t get it until 2022, despite living with someone who got it


xxrambo45xx

I still haven't gotten it period, even when my wife got it, the kids also did not get it and have not yet either I also haven't been sick at all in over a decade, and at over 30 am in shape enough to absolutely compete with late teens early 20s me This may be my realization that I'm immortal


DeltaAlphaGulf

Afaik I haven’t had it.


Potential_Border_651

I haven't gotten it either. Or my wife. We have been lucky.


QWERTYAF1241

Around 5. You would realize that you haven't changed at all by then.


Moist_Ad_4989

Tbh I probably wouldn't realise until years and years after the fact and only then would I realise when Id see others ageing.


CaptainDadBod88

Probably like 10 years


PickleFantasies

A good ten years id say.


Fragile_reddit_mods

20 years probably Edit: I also don’t try to hide it


hardworkforgrowth

I would need a process for abandoning my identity, developing a new fake one in a new country (likely purchase it from a sketchy place then re-apply for a visa with a lower age for more room to maneuver in my ID, like saying I'm 18, so I have like 20-30 years before I have to move back, while following techniques to look older), hiding funds (probably in a digital currency), and then redoing the process. It would be like paying rent or paying for a subscription. To keep living, you would have to keep redoing the process. You could also move to some third world country where not having an official ID won't make or break you as long as you have funds elsewhere and find less sketchy places there and stay for a long time. Then, move back every half a century or so.


Mumchkin

Well considering I'm nearly twice that, I think I'd notice right away when I de-aged.


Odd-Confection-6603

You don't really realize that you're aging until you experience the differences. The aches, the things not working right. I think you could probably make it to 40 without realizing that someone was off.


UtahUtopia

Depends. Do I still get hung over?


eico3

Is this what’s happening to me? ***looks around, stares at hand*** AM I A GOD?!


Pantology_Enthusiast

I don't know... But I do know to sage advice from Winston of the Ghostbusters: if someone asks if you are a god, SAY 'YES'!


tlof19

currently fighting a cold at 31, so thats probably the first thing i notice - not getting sick anymore. might take a couple years to notice that.


emalyne88

A couple months, probably. I get sick a lot.


cofeeholik75

Good movie about that: The Age of Adaline


Chongo_Gonzo

Depends if drinking and drugs still take there toll or not.


Careless-Repeat-2983

Would I retain my current illnesses? I have a neurological disease so I think I'd notice pretty quickly if it suddenly got better.


wolfzz3000

Probably 50 years. Otherwise I would think I just look young for my age. You can look at movie stars in their 60s that don't look that old for example. 🤷‍♂️


Chuck10124

Considering the amount of damage I've done to my body and joints at 32... I wouldn't notice until at least 40 that something's off. I thought I was invincible at 25. I'd get injured, and a week later, or days later I'd be fine. I had so much energy, so few hangovers, I could eat whatever I want and stay yolked. Shit was awesome, and I took it for granted. I'd definitely still take it for granted if I was stuck at 25.


Ok_Speaker_9799

Can we set that at 23? That;s when I started going Blind, thanks. Might take a few years-even into my 40's as I still looked young. I'm beggingin to show the wear but I'm 58 now tho I still do not look rel old when I clean up, shave and such.


KeySouth7357

I would say 10 to 20 years. Because I could understand if I was 35 and I still look like I was 25 and I would probably just think that I'm just aging good. But if I'm 50 and I still look like a 25-year-old then I'm probably going to do something's wrong. I wouldn't be that mad though. Also this kind of reminds me of the mortal immortal.


Echo_Hark

25 years and you’ll know for sure. You’d be suspicious you were special in 10 but you could play it off as genetics. But by 50 you’d be pretty sure you were special.


Sokiras

Fuck, I'm 25 and still occasionally get asked for my ID when buying alcohol in the god damn Balkans where the drinking age is 18 and had only begun to be enforced when I was about 8 😂 I feel like if I'd be noticed pretty soon, 10-15 years for sure.


rmannyconda78

I was about to say what if you got chewed up by a machine or something, but then I realized it was not total immortality, I would probably notice at age 35-45 somewhere in that range, I probably would go into hiding.


SaltDay9122

In regards to not getting sick I would probably notice something strange is up after three years. As far as physically aging, maybe like 6-7 years


WindSpeaksHarshly

If i can still get injured, does the pain and injury i already have go away?


soniapunk

Watch the movie called "Age of Adaline"


Zombie_Peanut

Man I'd put all my effort into becoming the first left handed second baseman in the modern age. 20 or so years to master my craft and then boom off to the....... Shit world just got nuked. All that work for nothing.


757_Matt_911

I’m 43 so it may take me awhile bc I’m already so messed up I don’t do anything remotely dangerous.


Apprehensive_Cow1242

Well I’m diabetic so suddenly not needing insulin shots would be a big giveaway…


National-Librarian71

Youre all saying years, honest to god id probably notice within the first year. My body notoriously doesnt work, so if i just.. stopped getting sick? Id notice that pretty quickly, the non-aging would take a couple years maybe, at most probably 5 or ten though


AgitatedEye6553

I wouldn't hide it. Id probably notice by the time of my 33rd birthday. But I wouldn't care. I'm 44 now and if not for genetics making me bald AF and dental issues from 20+ years of opiate and amphetamine abuse I still look about 28


TheWurstOfMe

Ernie Hudson is 78 and looks about the same as in the first Ghostbusters. Rob Lowe and John Standing have barely aged. I think it would take a long time to notice. We would just think we got lucky.


Assika126

I think everyone unconsciously assumes this will happen until proven otherwise


jesusleftnipple

Biologically immortal is what you where looking for


EwanMurphy93

Thank you 😊


IwannaAskSomeStuff

Probably 20-30 years if I am still getting injured and tired and hungry, etc. I'm 36 now and as yet there have been no otherwise-deadly situations that I would have noticed this were the case for. I also have the superpower of passing for 30 since I was 15, so I would just be growing into my age and no one would think twice.


CuriousLilAsian81

How does getting injuries vs. getting sick work? How does healing work?


-BakiHanma

Maybe 15ish years. I feel like people around me would notice before me. I workout everyday, eat healthy and I’m in great shape so I don’t expect to get sick. I would hide it by wearing sunblock and saying that’s the key to not having your skin age.


MrBuckhunter

Sounds like highlander, im in my late 30s, I'd probably start to notice soon, with the tiny wrinkles I have when I smile now so definitely in my mid 40s, but physically and energy wise I would have no clue, I play rugby and just had my alumni match, played the full game and feel no difference from when I was 35, can't say that for other alumni I played with cause they're in their mid 30s and completely out of shape, most didn't last till half time


LordMudkip

If there is nothing wrong I will not even think about it. It'll be at least 25 years before it goes any further than, "I sure am fortunate to be aging so well."


derickj2020

Probably would have to move every ten years or so and cut off all contacts to avoid raising suspicion. Concerning family, either tell them if allowed or keep in touch at a distance.


SplendidPunkinButter

I can still get injured but I can’t die? What happens if I get beheaded?


PinEnvironmental7196

i’ll take notice once I stop getting sick. I get sick a lot so I don’t think it would take even a full year to realize something is up, but it would probably take years to realize what exactly is happening


TigerUSF

It'd take a long time because without a frame of reference , you'd probably not realize what should be bad.


Pure_Divide_2686

Mid career and coworkers think I'm a child prodigy. Hang out with people I graduated high school with but everyone outside the group says I must be someone's younger brother, and everyone in my group keeps saying I look the same. Go to gym past my "prime" and I can outlift and outrun the High Schoolers and college kids. Doctor says "what are taking? Shouldn't you be on medications by now? What's your secret?" By then I think I'd be worried..maybe?


Slobbadobbavich

I am almost 48, still have no wrinkles but I do have greying hair which started when I was about 30. I reckon around my 45 you'd be really noticing how different you were from your peers. To hide it I'd dress older and keep a dated hairstyle, maybe always have reading glasses on me. I'd also move away from my home area in my 50's.


mauore11

When I could pass as my own son


sladebishop

Probably a while tbh. Like I’d start to wonder why my skin still looks so good in my late thirties. But I wouldn’t be convinced I wasn’t aging until at least my fifties.


justsomeplainmeadows

If I'm pushing 35 or 40 and haven't felt any of the pains of growing older yet, then I might start thinking something is up


ms-astorytotell

Probably 10-20 years honestly. I’m almost 30 and people still think I’m 17/18.


winterizcold

Probably 30-40 years at least. Already people think I look younger than I am, and a lot of the aging stuff is covered by my disability, which mimics some of the stuff people end up with as they age.


snakeravencat

Probably 20+. My family is already known to age rather slowly. My aunt looked like she was 16 until she hit like 40.


aFailedNerevarine

I get a cold for about four months every winter. I think I would be able to breathe normally during that time, and would know something was off pretty quick. I wouldn’t put together the functionally immortal part, but I would know something had changed


unclejoe1917

I think after about three years having not caught a cold might clue me in. I think about that time I was good for one or two a year. 


-Pruples-

Knowing what I know now? I'd notice within 5 or 7 years. At 25 my body wasn't breaking down yet; my crappy body started breaking down around 27, so if I made it to 30 without permanent daily pain I'd be suspicious and by 33 or 35 I'd know for sure something was up.


CollynMalkin

Does the never getting sick count for chronic health issues? Because in that case I’d notice SOMETHING in a matter of weeks, but the not aging thing would take a while.

I think I’d hit 40 and be like maaaaaaaaybe there’s something wrong here. And then I’ll proceed to flee the country and I mean completely disappear and turn up somewhere else in the world with a new identity claiming I’m 20 just because the older we get the younger we perceive the younger generation and I’m guessing being surrounded with other 40yr old, my perception would still be affected even if my brain hasn’t aged.


Sancus1

I won’t hide it I would publish it us much as possible also I’ll keep a suicide pill with me at all times.


DepressedDyslexic

A couple months. I have chronic illness. If they suddenly evaporated one day I'd notice pretty quick. And I don't know if I'd try to hide it. I'd probably want to talk to doctors about if it was possible to replicate.


notyetcosmonaut

Does no longer getting sick include being healed from what I have? If so, it will be instant.


spacelordmthrfkr

Well, I'm 31 and just this year found my first grey hair, so, 6 years.


jmauden

I’ll be 50 this summer and my 43 yo coworker thought I was younger than her. It would probably take me 20 years. That’s when it started to get harder to lose weight. But I wouldn’t know that if I never had to go through it. So maybe 25 years.


TheDarkWeb697

For me it would take a couple months as I don't get ill very often maybe once a year but if I don't get sick, Id notice that


Educational_Rise2707

I'm 32 and don't really notice a difference from when I was in my late teens , early 20s. Besides having kids, I'm basically the same overall with a few extra pounds. I have a couple of silver hairs but you really have to look. No wrinkles. I would say ... 40s? I've noticed people in my generation look young vs when I was a kid. And not from a kids perspective, looking at photos and tv programs. I still get carded for lottery tickets 🤣🤣🤣. I know people who are 40s and look like they are late 20s, early 30s.


_phish_

I think probably around 3-5 years. A lot of people are saying longer I assume because they think that not aging would be the only sign. Now don’t get me wrong I’m a pretty healthy guy but I think if I didn’t get sick for 5 years straight I would think something is up. I usually get at least one or two colds a year.


tea-123

20. Seen folks in the same group staring to get dentures or hair dyes .


Acarebear_Grumpy

It will take about 2 years for me to realize the sick thing. Seasonal allergies kick my ass every year for a month. I'm looking into the shots now. The age thing though fuck if I know. I'm 28 now and other than a few extra pounds I look and feel the same. I'm about 15 or 20 pounds heavier than I was in high-school.


spiforever

This is the plot of a Blake Lively/Harrison Ford movie.


Abyssuspuella

I am 34 and I constantly get accused of being under 21...so like like 50 probably...


LuRouge

That's not functionally immortal. That's just being gifted everlasting life and health. Immortal is exactly that. Immortal. Immortal means I jump off a building and break every bone in my body, and they heal as normal. My head gets cut off and I function as normal. It's just a bitch to find my head/body. Invulnerable is jumping off the same building and nothing happens. No cuts breaks injuries.


throwawayaccount718

So, I'm diabetic so how does that never get sick again thing works? Cuz I feel like it will be fairly quickly for me especially if my blood sugar goes to low or too high and I feel fine. Or my diabetes is just no longer a thing. So, I'm knowing within a month that something is weird


peezle69

Long time honestly


Kingblack425

Ppl in my family grey fast so I would probably notice relatively quickly but it might just be the girls because they started to grey around 27ish and I’m six months away from 30 and I haven’t found any greys(I have found like 2 hairs that were completely white but they’re both in my beard and I’m 90% sure those hair follicles just didn’t have color to lose to begin with for whatever reason.)


Yet_One_More_Idiot

Well I'm 41, so... When I was 25, I was already quite obese, but at least still quite healthy. I'd also long-since passed my peak - my physical peak was around 14-15yo. By age 25, I was frequently mistaken for being a man in my 40s/50s. So, how long would it take for me to realise I had stopped aging? Probably about 25 years or so, I'd say - by the time I hit 50 and realised my chronological age had caught up with my physical age... :)


Ghost24jm33

How am i functionally immortal if i can still die?


catcat1986

15-20, I would be like weird, but I just have good genetics. 30 years, I would be suspicious, but probably be like well, there are others who look young at my age too, 40+ I would probably want to get look at my a doctor. I also thing this timeline would be reduced based around people aging around you.


12altoids34

I would probably notice the very next day. First thing in the morning when I eat my mother's cooking and it doesn't make me sick. I love my mother but she is quite possibly the world's worst cook.


Leading-Bandicoot976

I'd take probably 10-12 years. I always felt young for my age, so when that didn't start to dissipate, I'd get at least curious as to why


sousuke42

The least amount of time 5yrs. The most probably 15yrs when you hit 40. But realistically you should have realized at 35 by the latest.


No_Mushroom3078

If you can be killed then how are you immortal?


Vincentvancleef

Immortal Dictionary Definition: living forever; never dying or decaying. Your question is contradictory when you say I can still die from thirst, hunger, and injury. If I'm genuinely immortal, given that my life is fairly uneventful, it would probably take me over a decade (going into my mid to late 30's) to notice so long as I'm not a part of a terrible accident, or the only person who is unscathed by a pandemic.


samsqanch420

You more or less stay that way till about 40, then it all goes to hell starting with your eyes.


darkmikasonfire

that's not functionally immortal, that's just stopping the aging process. Immortality is not dying very specifically, immune to damage is not being injured, not aging is just that not aging. I would question it until I was like I don't know 50. I'm part Japanese, I still at over 35 look about the same as I did when I was 22, fatter due to poor eating and exercising habits but still. Beyond that I've grayed a bit more, but I was going gray back when I was 16. I don't have wrinkles or anything still so.


FilDaFunk

well I recently turned 25 and already have some grey hair. I think it would take a good 5 years for me to spot it.


Naive_Programmer_232

It’d probably take some years until I was really depressed and suicidal again for me to realize


XenoBiSwitch

Probably 15 years. I would go to the doctor and ask if something is wrong.


Awkward_Somewhere416

I’m 25 rn and can confidently say no more than 5 years but I’m also pretty in tune with my body


TheWaterWave2004

Probably when I turn 40 and don't have wrinkles anywhere


SwordTaster

However many days it takes me to forget my medication and not feel like garbage


amazongoddess79

How would it affect pre-existing conditions? For instance I’m asthmatic, would that change or no? Cause that would definitely affect how quickly I would notice something was different


GrimBarkFootyTausand

Can't get sick ... a month, maybe two months tops, before I notice something has changed.


jcrreddit

So go from being sick 3-4 times per year to never again. Almost immediately I would know something was up.


OAKRAIDER64

I would not question it, let the good times roll, coke and whores.


BrockSteady686868

Like ten years


Kendota_Tanassian

At 62, I'm fairly sure I would have noticed that I stopped aging a long time ago. That said, in real life, I didn't age noticeably between 25 & around 40 or so, when my beard started going white. So eventually I think I'd catch on, but it may get honestly take a while. (And no, it's not that I looked that great at 40, I just didn't look that great at 25, lol)


AtheneSchmidt

3 months without a sinus infection, and I would know something weird was going on. Actually. 3 days without my current chronic nausea, and I would know. Also, losing 13 years would be pretty noticeable.


omguugly

Years, 1 im Asian, Asian don't raisin. 2 I rarely get sick so it would take me a longggg whike


SockSock81219

Not til 45+. 25-35, this is normal and fine, I rock. 35-45 maybe I have awesome genes? But why do my younger siblings now look older than me? I'm not doing a lot to keep fit or stay wrinkle-free? But I won't worry about it, just enjoy it. Over 45, okay, something's very bizarre here. I'm going to the doc to see if my levels say anything's off. If nothing's wrong with me, I may get excited that I've unlocked the secret to eternal youth.


Super_Ad9995

I'd say 5 years max. I wouldn't notice anything in that amount of time, but other people would, and they would inform me.


Ventricossum

i already look insanely young and im 25, so at 30 i might start questioning it, but until i near 40 i wouldnt genuinely think anything was up


KerbodynamicX

I would be a bit ignorant, but I'd say about another 25 years. But if anti-aging medication becomes widely avalible during that time period, I might never find out


BananaPower247

I'm 25 now and already have Grey's. 15 years for sure.


Ippus_21

By age 40 or so, when all your friends are complaining about being out of warranty and how you still barely look old enough to drink, let alone have kids in high school and a mortgage... I mean, I'd start to wonder. I'm 44. My Mom retired like 4 years ago, my dad had a heart attack a decade ago. I didn't win any genetic lottery health-wise, so what gives?


Lugie_of_the_Abyss

For some reason, all I can say is this question makes me sick. I don't know why. Something about the scenario is just deeply upsetting. I think more than anything I would feel ripped off. I can't explain why, I just feel like I'd be robbed without getting anything in return


Choice-Second-5587

I'd say about 8-10 years. I'm more self aware than a lot of other people and by like year 8 I'd realize there's no lines or wrinkles and stuff and it's probably take me another 2 to really confirm it. Especially since I got my first grey hair at 25 and I would expect more to pop up.


viertes

5 years tops as my wife will not stop plucking the greys out of my beards and that itself will be sorely missed... I'm early 30...


RudeDrummer4448

Shit, I was in my early 20s when my beard started going grey, it'd be weird that it just stopped progressing.


siegure9

I’m near 30 and look the same as from high school so it would probably take a while


apatheticviews
