Mid-twenties crisis: a new phenomenon?

[Synapse]

Looks like my life is a life made for crisis, pit stop now and again and it keeps on giving like its already Halloween, wow I miss my mid twenties crisis's now I'm just going through my early thirties and before you know it its happy mid life without the anchovies, what's the difference, its all the same to me.

I had a huge quarter life crisis starting from about the age of twenty four to about twenty nine-thirtyish. Don't ask, it's long and involved. I hope no-one has to go through such a major restructuring as myself (only to end up where they first began, LOL).

I think in the past people's lives were very much planned out for them, and they never hit a crisis until they felt the onset of middle/old age and realized they weren't happy.

Agreed. These days you are allowed to do things just because they make you happy, and are actually expected to have a happy fulfilling life. So people question the way they are living at an earlier age than they used to.
I feel like I just had my midlife crisis, I completely changed how I was living my life and my priorities, and I'm only 21. And a lot of people I know who are in their 20's and 30's are doing the same.
