    Small, nagging doubts may appear, encouraging a series of dramatic, seemingly irrational events and ultimately great change. A person experiencing midlife symptoms will ask: Is this all there is? Am I a failure? Symptoms and behaviors during midlife crisis can range from mild to severe, including:

    * Boredom and exhaustion, or frantic energy

    * Self-questioning

    * Daydreaming

    * Irritability, unexpected anger

    * Acting on alcohol, drug, food or other compulsions

    * Greatly decreased or increased sexual desire

    * Sexual affairs, especially with someone much younger

    * Greatly decreased or increased ambition
