The Average Female Midlife Crisis

By Tracie Knight


At a certain point in time, you may feel a change coming about. This may due to a female midlife crisis. This is only natural and it is in no way uncommon. One can expect it to come on at any time in life, and some women even have this as young as third. Men will have this at a later stage and will experience it in different ways.

Psychologists thought this happened back in the day when women were trying to break away from the motherhood role. They thought they wanted to experience some sense of freedom. It is about being free, but you don't have to be a mother to experience this. You can be a young person as well.

Not everyone needs therapy because it won't be severe for everyone. Some women don't have this crisis at all, so you have to keep this in mind. Some women will just spend some money on a luxury item and this may be good for them at the end of the day. Of course, they may regret it, but it is just par for the course.

However, this aspect of self discovery can get out of hand and that is where one must keep your feet on the ground. Sometimes you will need the help of a therapist to help you do that. Sometimes this will happen when women are young, and it needs to be managed so that they can get on with their lives and so that it does not affect anyone around them.

A lot of this comes down to the human needs and this is a big part of life. Sometimes you may have reached the top and there is nowhere further that you can go. You may just want to experience what life is like on the other side. You may just want to see what this is like for a little while, and this is not a bad thing because there will be less stress and anxiety.

For women who are career focused, it may be a time just to put everything on hold and rediscover who they are. However, this is difficult to do on your own. If you are career women, then the chances are that you have fewer friends that you can talk to, and you do need someone that you can lean towards for guidance.

Sometimes you can be as young as thirty when this hits you and this is where you have to take action because it can be a problem and affect those around you. You may have just started a career at this point and choosing to do something else can be a bad thing. You also need guidance during this time.

You can expect certain people in your life to be raising a few eyebrows at this time, but you will soon discover who your real friends are. You may find that there are not many understanding ones around and this is where a coach or a therapist is put to good use. They would have seen people in this situation time and time again.
