Male; 55 at BD.  Not really a 'mid' life crisis unless he's planning to live to 110.

He was 39 at BD, but had at least 18 months of funk before, with the most visible signs of something wrong around the time of his high school reunion at 38. GAH! So typical! He'll be 44 next week. Looks like he's aged 20 years.

My H was 44 at BD (about 4 years of increasingly scary rage before that). Returned at 46, half-cooked. He's now 48 and I think (slowly uncrossing fingers) that he's back to status quo ante. Mostly.
