Sounds like MLC to me

Botox, not talking to kids

There really is no explanation for the behavior of a MLC...
My best understanding of it is they have unresolved issues from the past as she clearly does, long history of not dealing with emotions and problems, and running from pain

MLC is all about running..they cant see they have issues from childhood, teenage years and the crises usually comes around mid life
age 40
triggered by some event...maybe son leaving, or someone dying

What I saw from my XH crises is nothing could help him see the truth
He wanted to play, he did not want to parent his young children
He did not want to run his sucessful company
He wanted to have fun, got a motorcycle, dyed his hair, changed his clothing style

he was not interested in therapy or working through it instead he chose to leave a life that was sucessfull, good job , home and family and start over with a younger woman who had psych issues ..

continue to work on yourself and support your boys

more will come to the surface
