I'm having a mid-life crisis...WTF?

So sorry to hear this, Sleeper. Much of what you write about was just the luck, or non-luck, of the draw, things we will all deal with in some capacity at some point. Losses, when they come quickly, are intense.

I don't believe that life can be simply broken. Perhaps some additional counseling for you, to deal with the many issues you mention?

It's OK to fantasize about being a younger musician. Maybe you need some escape--it's OK to dream, or even try to make some reality of the dream. It's when you use it to avoid consequences and responsibilities that it is really a problem.

How is married life?
