Reconnect With You

The more I step into this place of being open about early midlife celebrations, the more women I've noticed coming forward with their stories of frustration and loss. And when I say "loss", what I'm hearing more and more is that they've lost sight of who they are and are frustrated about who they've become. »more»

Is a Mid Life Crisis an illness?

FlyOnDaWall's picture

I've lost count of the number of times I've heard someone affected by their MLC say "I'm so glad I now realise I'm not alone, I thought that I was going crazy", when what they should be saying is "I'm so glad that I now realise that I am not the only one going crazy". »more»

The Silent Beginning of a Mid-Life Crisis

shepherdess56's picture

Recently, I was asked by a man who's wife had left him and his children due to her Mid-Life Crisis: When does the MLC begin and if redirected attention toward the children was an indication that a woman was soon going to click her heels and return home? Here was my answer....it may be of interest to some who have the same question. »more»

Will faith really get me through this... midlife crisis, divorce, economic downturn, depression...?

The middle age years can be a challenging time for many. Marital issues, job problems, midlife crises, elder care, empty next, health concerns and many more are all possible. Some find themselves turning to religion more than ever before and this is evidenced by the frequency of such phrases as "turning to faith" in the LifeTwo discussion forums. »more»

Have I Wasted Twenty Years as a Homemaker?

Lisa's picture

Other women who've been working since they were twenty will now have retirement income. Not me. I stayed home. I got the joy of watching every step of my children's infancy and childhood. Now I'm stuck with just me.

As I make my way out into the sunshine, I sure would love to hear what other people have to say about being "just a homemaker" and what happens next.

What song best represents how you are feeling?

Wesley's picture

Music can be very powerful and can evoke memories and emotions. What song(s) best capture how you are feeling and why? (Perhaps at some point we'll put together a iTunes playlist for us all to listen to).

MLC or Just fallen out of love

Is she going through mid-life or what?

Back in Oct./ 07 my wife suddenly decided that going to her parents home in TX for a while is what she needed to sort her feelings out about continuing this marriage. We live in MS so that is a long ways away. She felt that she just didn't get enough "me time" and that I was around far too much. »more»
