Changing jobs, having a one-night stand and taking vitamins are all signs that you are going through a mid-life crisis.

A new study of 2,000 UK adults over the age of 40 has found that nearly forty per cent believe they have experienced some kind of life crisis, with stopping celebrating your birthday and even joining Facebook part of the signs that you have reached it.

The average mid-life crisis will cost Brits £7,712.39, with an urge to travel the most costly aspect setting respondents back an average of £1,471 each.

Olivia Hill, Chief HR Officer at AAT (The Association of Accounting Technicians), the organisation which commissioned the survey, said: “This study found that a huge proportion of the country has felt anxiety about the direction their life has taken.

“And one of the most common causes for a mid-life crisis is dissatisfaction in the workplace.

“At AAT we often see people who are studying with us have moved from a career they are not happy with, to make a positive change in their lives.

“Perhaps more people should consider a change of career not just to enhance their earning potential or improve their work/life balance, but to avoid the stresses and strains of a mid-life crisis.”
