[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The most unhappy years for women are late 40s. It's just life, kids, aging parents, hormones. It gets easier in the 50s. Having a sense of humor and rolling with the changes is the way to go. Your health is your wealth more so now than ever.[/quote] Maybe. My 50s are kicking my ass. Teens with issues, a mother with dementia, and my own newly diagnosed chronic illness. I suffer from serious existential angst right now. What's it all for? What's the point? I try to do all the right things -- eat right, sleep hygiene, meditate, laugh with friends, etc. At least I am not deeply depressed and I think all my self-help has prevented that. But I feel you, OP. Mid-life is tough. (BTW-- I love my work, have a great relationship with husband, but I can still do the mental loop-de-loop of paths not taken, mistakes made etc.)[/quote]
