Why do people often have a ‘mid-life crisis,’ and is it just a fancy way of saying they’ve hit a point where they finally realize they’ve been doing everything wrong?

I turned 40 last year and found out why. You realize you are no longer young and that if 40 came this fast, soon it’ll be 60, then 70, and people die at that age, and what if I get cancer or some other fatal disease before then, like that girl Stephanie I used to work with who died suddenly of a heart attack, or my high school friend Katie who didn’t even make it to 40 because of cancer?!?! It’s very scary.
I tried to mentally prepare the entire year I was 39, but I’m still struggling with turning 40, and I turn 41 in a month!
I think it’s something you don’t really understand until you get to that age. I know I didn’t.
