Confronting to 40 without dying in the attempt

Upon reaching maturity, the person in the first instance acquires its full balance. Already established labour, as well as the emotional sphere, and the major identity crisis have been as a memory of youth. This balance often is only a mirage ...

In the latter case, there is a major crisis. Not all people who suffer from this crisis are the same age. Men tend to suffer rather than women, and in them many times, is directly related to the onset of menopause, feared in most cases simply by lack of information.

With the arrival of middle age, are often problematic nature of work, and then consequently economic, that affect the psychological state of individuals. These problems are generated by the volatility of current employment plans and offer real work.

It poses a problem of existentialism, tending to make an overview of what has hitherto been our life, and seek to carry out those dreams of youth unrealized. We look at life from a critical perspective, and impractical to confront reality with dreams left behind unresolved, try, anxious and impulsive, seeking a solution that in many cases we produce an identity crisis.

Those who are unable to manage and resolve this crisis stage, suffered increased levels of stress and anxiety, and therefore are more awaiting what they lack than what they have.

This makes us face up to life in three ways, either an extreme feeling self-pity for being unable to find such a solution; getting a sharp and intense hyperactivity to achieve all that we missed, or (and this itself is the best solution to confront the crisis) we make a sincere self-criticism, but above all constructive, objectively weighing everything we have achieved and makes us happy, clashes with what they crave and they really believe it can bring benefits to our lives. Enfrentar always from criticism, weigh the pros and cons and make a reasoned decision, not just thinking of us, but also one that may affect our decisions.

In conclusion, tackling the 40 with optimism. Life is for living and each era has its good and bad moments, focus on the good and learn to querernos with 100 years when we had 25.
