Young adulthood can be a very stressful time. The transition to college or from college into "the real world" can be fraught with responsibilities, expectations and challenges. This can also be an exciting time, where you begin to bring into focus what you really want, and learn how to move towards the life you’ve always dreamed of. The quarter life crisis can be difficult, but you are not alone. You can take steps now towards the changes you want to see in your life.

The Midlife Crisis

A midlife crisis is experienced between the ages of 40 and 60. It was first identified by the psychologist Carl Jung and is a normal part of the maturing process. Most people will experience some form of emotional transition during that time of life. A transition that might cause you to take stock in where you are in life and make some needed adjustments to the way you live your life. Most seem to come through the process smoothly without making major life changes.

For some, a midlife crisis is more complicated. It can be an uncomfortable time emotionally which can lead to depression and the need for coaching/psychotherapy. Those who have a hard time with this transitional stage might experience a range of feelings such as:

• Unhappiness with life and the lifestyle that may have provided them with happiness for many years.
• Boredom with people and things that may have been of interest to them before.
• Feeling a need for adventure and change.
• Questioning the choices, they have made in their lives and the validity of decisions they made years before.
• Confusion about who they are and where they are going.
• Anger at their spouse and blame for feeling tied down.
• Unable to make decisions about where they want to go with their life.
• Doubt that they ever loved their spouse and resentment over the marriage.
• A desire for a new and passionate, intimate relationship.

The Late Life Crisis

A late life crisis can share many of the characteristics of a midlife crisis. For example, people in their 70s and beyond experience major life events that can cause a period of psychological stress or depression, such as the death of a loved one, or a career setback. However, those events could have happened earlier or later in life, making them a "crisis," but not necessarily a midlife one. As the baby-boomer generation gets older, more late life crisis are occuring.
