Hi there Darren1977

Welcome to our Community.

If think we all have times when we question that Daren, honestly, you're not alone. It's a horrible feeling and it seems to occur when either something traumatic has recently happened, not having positive relationships or a mundane lifestyle. I found the best way to deal with this is to keep busy, take exercise if you can, take up a thought provoking hobby and keep chatting with others here or anywhere! otherwise we suffer from isolation which just makes it all worse.

Take care

Chloe

Ty Chloe.. I feel guilty for feeling like this as my life isn't bad and others have it worse. I exercise, don't hate but feel like life is passing me by sometimes.. Could it be my midlife crisis?

HI Darren,

Men certainly do have a midlife crisis although this isn't spoken of as much as it should be, so gets very little understanding in my opinion.

We all need to be able to understand how/why we are feeling a certain way and it sounds as though you are aware of just what it could be. Just please don't make any rash decisions.

Please check these links Darren, some very useful information.

When asked if l as a man had a mid life crisis as l am 57 l have a stock answer. I say l am passed that l am having my end life crisis. Its true but people laugh but it's no joke. Once you bury you parents to feel very odd as your next l feel. I often question why are we here. Between trump and North Korea we could all be nuked away any time now.

Hi Ronnie282

It's no joke Ronnie, I don't understand why they would laugh. I too have lost both parents and it's a very strange feeling, you start thinking all sorts of things, I certainly understand that.

Take care now
