PHILADELPHIA (CBS) — Most doctors say a mid-life crisis might occur anywhere from age 37 all the way through your 50s, for men and women.
It’s defined as a crisis of identity or self-confidence that usually strikes those who are in a period of transition.
It brings to mind that longstanding stereotype about the guy who impulsively buys the red sports car or dumps his wife for a younger girlfriend.
But researchers from the University of Alberta in Canada now say a mid-life crisis isn’t real… it’s just a myth!
They followed a group of high school students for 25 years and a group of college students for 14 years.
