"Midlife crisis" -> nghĩa là tình trạng lo lắng tuổi trung niên, khủng hoảng tuổi trung niên.

Ví dụ
Boris Johnson says he entered politics (chính trị) due to the "beginnings of a midlife crisis" in his mid-thirties. The prime minister, 56, said he chose to be an MP because he wanted to "contribute more".

Something’s changed in me. My lightness of being has gone. I think I’ve lost my zing (sức sống). Maybe I’m having a midlife-crisis: a belated (đến muộn) one, seven-twelfths through my life.

And though I couldn’t hide the thing from my neighbours, I’ve taken pains to explain to passersby (người qua đường) that this rounded hump (đống) of silver metal is very much not a midlife-crisis thing. Far from it. It’s a COVID thing — a recreational diversion financed with a year’s worth of cancelled boardgame junkets and ski vacations. 

According to a national survey conducted in the United States, about one in four of the participants reported experiencing (trải qua) a midlife crisis. Often, the crisis is triggered by life-changing events like divorce, job loss, loss of a loved one, or relocation.
