How do you know you're having a midlife crisis?

[FakeTanGirl]

As opposed to just another shitty week?

Have any MNutters actually had a midlife crisis .... and what happened?

apparently 25% of females and 20% of males become clinically depressed at some point in their life. Things to watch out for, moodiness, mood swings (i mean larger than normal), feelings of hopelessness, no way out, diet loss, sleeplessness. SOme of the weirder one is what stress does to your skin and hair.

I don't know how you know but I'm pretty sure I'm having one! I'm nearly 50 and have started taking up new hobbies - and often dropping them again just as quickly. Developed a sense of 'what have I done with my life?'

Going out tomorrow to buy myself a whitewater kayak

It could be worse - I haven't shagged the milkman or started driving a sports car!

You plan to change your mn name, fortyplus?
