68-DEATH!
Ego Integrity vs. Despair. Erikson states that this is the stage of reflection. This is where i will look back on my life and see what contributions i have made if any. I feel like I would be overdramatic and make everyone hang out with me before i go. Knowing me, I will probably guilt them into being with me. Success at this stage gives you that feeling of fulfillment, like you made your contributions to the world and you're ready to go.
