The tricky part of the midlife crisis
Submitted by Anonymous on April 24, 2007 - 6:17am.
To both posters - your suffering is huge. The only consolation is seeing you are not alone. Glad to see the last person has therapeutic support.
What can be tricky is thinking of the midlife crisis as some kind of diagnosis. It is not. It is not a disease or illness. It is a name that captures many different behaviors that have the discontent with how life is going as a common theme.
There could be a myriad of psychological and emotional issues that someone is struggling with as they grapple with midlife. So be sure to look at those when trying to help a loved one. Don't rest on thinking the common struggles at midlife are a diagnosis.
