'When you rather be in bed than be at a party': 20+ signs that you're becoming old

There is a definitive moment in everyone's adult lives when all of a sudden, you don't have the bandwidth to do what you used to do. This could be something as literal and physical as needing to hire movers the next time you're changing apartment because you just don't have the strength and energy to carry everything yourself and potentially create even worse back problems than you already have. This could also be something as seemingly minor as putting a hard stop to your "going out" plans so that you're in bed by 10:00. Regardless of where you fall on this extreme, this phenomenon doesn't necessarily manifest itself when you're retired or legally considered a senior citizen. For instance, I am still in my twenties and I very much feel this way already.
