Terrified of ageing

I'm 17 and I'm terrified of getting older. I don't want to hit 19 or anything above that. When I think about it I cry and get upset. I want to be a teenager forever and I fantasise about it all the time. I've had panic attacks when thinking about getting older and I don't know what to do. I'm jealous of younger people now, and when I'm say 19 I'll be jealous of those 17-18 and when I'm like 26 I don't know what I'll do; I'll be so upset and angry and jealous that I'm not a teenager forever. This fear is eating my life and I don't know what to do.
