I think my wife is having a mid-life crisis

Man of Action,

So sorry to hear of this rift between you and your wife. From what you wrote it seems like you'd like to work things out...maybe even reinvent your marriage.

Could I offer a thought to you. I'm a mediator who often helps two people see their situations differently. Over the years I've been amazed by how a small shift in perception can really open of discussion and solutions.

f she's reacting negatively to the words midlife crisis, why not let them go and concentrate on your primary desire: to help her and revitalize your marriage. You might find that once those words, with all their negative connotations, are removed your wife will be open to exploring her feelings with counseling.

Here's another question: why is it important to you that your wife acknowledge what you're calling a midlife crisis? Knowing that might assist you in determining some of your interests. We're human and we don't always have positive interests in mind; that's ok, but it's important to know that at the start.

Here's hoping your family finds its way.

Sorry, Wes, I forgot to add my name.

It's not that important that she acknowledges it so much as she recognizes that the fix isn't all about me. I've sought help and have come to grips with my anxiety, at least with the outbursts, although I'm certainly anxiety prone about our marriage. The thing is her attitude is to just wait and see if her feelings come back now. She admittedly hates anything to do with emotions and feelings and I don't think she will really do any soul searching if she doesn't see a need.

After reading about your wife's condition my heart is filled with sorrow. I will pray to God for her good health. Please you don't worry about her illness. Keep trust in God. I heard about anxietyattackstreatment.I come to know that it is a powerful system that can cure panic attacks and general anxiety fast. You’ll learn the exact technique that can give you immediate anxiety relief without using any medication. It’s a simple method that you can follow step by step to see results fast. While many programs only show you how to cope with a panic attack when it has already begun, but it helps to stop panic attacks altogether. Another benefit of this program over others on the market is that it doesn’t give you generic advice or outdated techniques. I think you must try it for once.

Take Care........ Brett
