I used to celebrate my birthday for the whole month when I was in my 20's.  I've noticed the older I get the less I like celebrating and drawing attention to myself.  LOL!

Then I'd have to tell my age.  Why do I have a problem with this?  I always have.  When I turned 25 I pretty much thought I was now deemed "old" and had anxiety!
