38, wife and 2 beautiful kids, stable job stable income promising career perspective, no mortgage no loans no pressure whatsoever… yet I tick ALL the boxes!!! 😢

[richlikeg]

40, I feel life is going by too quick, everyone growing up quickly and my parents retiring. No money, getting more impatient, trying to pursue something not knowing if I can succeed. Tired, exhausted, no motivation, just wishing to be more alone. Yeah I’m definitely in my midlife crisis mode.

[abdulmueed]

listening to him … listing 1-13 all things I am feeling at once 😂😂

[Wooptyfregendoo]

35 and experiencing all of the above... I'm not suicidal, but I hate it here.

[bestthingsinceslicedrice]

Holy Lord im only 43 and all thats mentioned are exactly what I'm feeling

[eqjsepn]

I have anxiety, depression, ADHD, paranoia and an addictive personality. Everything you listed, except maybe 2 or 3 i've had since i was 3 years old. 🤣

[robertoboehler-blumenau-sc]

42, no kids, never wanted to get married, and I don't regret when I see all my friends having very bad marriages and some already divorced. I still look young, but biologically I know that I'm more past than future, and that's sad. Well, I haven't drunk anymore since last year, and that's a huge achievement for me.

[hamfistsman]

48, it's hitting me. 10/13 of those. A few months ago I quit weed, put my Playstation away, been working out like crazy. I'm in the best shape I've been in 20 years. The life choices made just hover me. I definitely feel trapped.

[McGowan]

Feeling a lot of these at 33.. started my adult life quite early, and so I guess this is my mid life “opportunity”

[jeremiahmorris]

I turned 40 last year and had my whole life start going south before then. Things continue to get worse and my depression is worse than before

[ayrp]

I think every 20 years or so, there is an assessment of "where we are in life" 20, 40, 60 years old. The best outcome of a midlife crisis, in my opinion, is getting back into shape for health reasons. By 40, we vividly seen the correlation between health and vice. Alcohol, sex, morbid obesity (me), tobacco, gambling, ect. There's a correlation between vice and health. Like it or not, it is what it is. We have the power to overcome.

[danalley]

I've been having a midlife crisis my whole life based on these points

[zenelektrik]

Edge between 39 and 40 made me know, that midlife crisis is like nightmare in real. Don't underestimate it, get professional help and prepare for hard work to escape this pitfall

[funeats]

39, I just want off the ride already. This life is not what I thought it was at all. I’m so dismayed at the downward trajectory of my country. This current America is unrecognizable from the one I grew up in. The people have been propagandized into oblivion. I just don’t see much hope for the future anymore, I don’t even have dreams or goals now.

[miguelbissieres]

Quick and precise. Thank you for your video Matt.

[mctesterjv]

I’m 15 going to 16 and watching you complaining and lost, just have faith in god and in yourself and in the choices you have made

[missladybug]

Wow, this sounds just like going through menopause! I'm 56 and going through hell. 😢

[blastme]

I'm just glad he left the sports car thing off the list.

[karahamil]

I’m past mid life been going through all 13 since my 50’s and still going through them at 67!!! Life is hard and gets harder these days .
