Full maturity, combined with energy, makes this period an age where we know, finally, to be in truth. Without having to appear.

Fifty years … Psychoanalyst and psychosociologist, Anasthasia Blanché estimated, for le figaro, that this age can be a time “immense paradox“: Indeed, the fifties,”feeling at the top of their skills, their ability to transmit, to take a step back“, Also observe at the same time, sometimes,”that in the company their future is compromised“. However, the specialist believes that this is not a moment of crisis, but rather a phase of transition. “We are living a turning point over several years“, She assures, as well.

It is first of all a bodily change. For the psychologist Laurent Boucheron de Boissoudy, interviewed on the website Health goal, “the test of the evolution of the body does not happen by itself“. This work of mourning, in the psychological sense of the term, thus implies “a succession of stages of renouncement and acceptance in the face of the marks of time and the stages of no return that everyone must go through«.

In women, it can sometimes set in a certain irritability which may be associated with sleep disturbances, or even fatigue. But, it is sometimes also the occasion, for them, to find a new dynamic: the children gone or not far from doing it, the couple can even rediscover a less restrictive life for two.

The onset of menopause for women is devoid of particular symptoms in half of women. For the other half, the question of hormonal substitution may arise. In the event of significant disorders, hot flashes or vaginal dryness, we will sometimes have to resort to hormone replacement therapy (HRT)… Because “sexuality does not stop at fifty!“, Slip the specialists of Allodocteurs.

«From a positive perspective, assures Laurent Boucheron de Boissoudy, we can consider that after all, the signs of aging are in fact those of full and beautiful maturity!“The psychologue.net website indicates it moreover:”One of the most notable cultural changes of recent years is that of the role according to age, and particularly among women! Fifty years is definitely no longer the age to get out of circulation …«

This site also states: “Many women take advantage of this period to engage in new experiences that had remained pending, mainly for lack of time, or for daring.It is also common for people in their fifties to discover new motivations, or new goals. And so, “at this age, many decide to go to college and enroll in courses on topics that interest them“, Underlines the site psychologue.net.

For Laurent Boucheron de Boissoudy, “if we live this stage well, then we can take full advantage of this period during which we take full advantage of the fruits of our personal and professional journey“. And to add: “At the same time, we participate in the transmission, the transfer of our knowledge to the rising generations. ” At this age, very often, self-confidence allows you to be in a simpler but also more direct relationship with others, with the world. Finally freed from appearing, we can quite simply be.

The expert in psychology specifies it: “The fiftieth combines the full power of its means and maturity, it is a period of life that offers the possibility of an experience of fullness, it is the quiet strengthe ”. If you have health, you must also do everything to maintain it: the practice of a sport, even if only the daily walk of at least half an hour, remains essential. It is also good to surround yourself socially, to have stimulating activities.

Many people in their fifties are making a fresh start, as the psychologue.net site again indicates, such as starting their own business or their own business. Often the education of children is finished: it is then possible “that the idea of ​​a work that was nevertheless seen as unrealistic or even impractical several years previously becomes a project to be carried out«.

Admittedly, Anasthasia Blanché emphasizes “the fifties are extremely abused in France. Their employment rate is the lowest in Europe!“Indeed: threats hover over those who are in office …

They have, generally, in the first part of life, accomplished the duties which were due to them, built a family and / or a career. “Work experience can be considerable and many feel it is time to take the next step“, Insists the site psychologue.net.

Then, “little by little, at the same time that they begin to understand that, that’s it, a very deep inner need is rising in them …“, Suggests Anasthasia Blanché. An inner movement is heard in oneself. Leading to ask the question: “And you, what have you become compared to the teenager that you were? What have you given up?“For the fifty-something, it will eventually become essential to, slowly,”weave threads between what we were, what we accomplished and what we want to become“…
