At what age do men go through a "mad" life crisis?

Answer 1

Assuming you mean a 'mid-life' crisis, not all men do. Those who do usually start in the late 30s if ever. If instead you actually meant a 'mad' life crisis, I have no idea what youre talking about. Men have no higher incidence of insanity than women do, and it doesnt happen generally at any particular age.

Answer 2

You are treating the concept of a mid-life crisis as if it were a mental illness. That's not what it is. In its most basic concept, a mid-life crisis is when a person seriously looks back on what his (or her) life has been, what it is now, and finds it lacking. The person is question might come to realize that he has spent more than half his entire lifespan doing things he didn't actually enjoy. Things like staying married just for the kids, working at a high-paying job that makes him miserable, giving up on his dreams to live a more practical life, etc. That's a hard thing to deal with. It's a realization that you might now have much time life on this Earth, and that you haven't had much enjoyment out of the time you've spent so far. So, if this man starts finding fault with his wife and children, maybe it's because he feels they rely on him so much that he doesn't get to do things for himself. If he's thinking about divorce, maybe it's because he's come to realize that his wife isn't the person he married. It's hard to say without a specific example. The worst thing you can do with someone like this is treat them as if they are just going through a "phase". That is tantamount to saying that these concerns that are for them so earth-shaking aren't valid at all, that they need to "straighten up and fly right." The way you phrased your question made it seem as though you want to be able to "diagnose" someone from the outside. As it, trying to figure it out without having to actually communicate with him about it. Another mistake. You need to give him a chance to actually discuss his concerns, and not be judgmental about any honest feelings he offers. And regarding your question as to whether or not he will go back to his old self: What if he hates his "old self"? Should he be obligated to go back to that just because you are more comfortable with it?

Answer 3

Are you talking about the dirty old man syndrome? Well men start to age big time in their forties, but seem to be unaware how bad they look, and try and compensating for their ugliness by chasing attractive women, this can happen between 45-60 years of age, these are called the dirty old man years, occasionally men can be looking for younger women at 65 years old, but it is less likely. However there are always the Hugh Hefner's of this world, which carry on being dirty old men as long as they live.
