Reconnect With You

Kitara R. Wilson's picture

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»

Parental role models and us

Lisa's picture

I'll cut right to the chase: I think my parents taught me that love is putting up with a lot of ill treatment and staying no matter what.

I have a question for which I have NO idea how to find the answer. »more»

Lisa's picture

I don't know how to approach this whole question, but I know I have to put my best possible foot forward and make positive change, not negative, because I don't have the right to thoughtlessly crash my way through this. I love everyone involved. Furthermore, I believe that the way I treat others is the proof of who I am. I want to prove I can change in a mature way. »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»

Everywhere I turn I see carnage. Yes it is important to have a long-term view but at some point we're human. How are people doing and what coping strategies are working/not working.

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...?

Wesley's picture

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»

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).
