This period of development is dominated by structures that coincide with the second fundamental existential motivation (the theory of A. Langlet). This stage is associated with a revision of relationships and values, and in connection with this, the occurrence of depressive experiences predominates. A person, looking back at his life, begins to ask questions about the meaning of what he did in his life, how he lived his life and what values ​​he was able to embody. The very concept of “midlife crisis” was first introduced in 1965 by Elliot Jacks, where he identified two the main factors influencing the emergence of the crisis: the formation of a deep understanding and awareness of one’s own nature as mortal beings, where the framework of reality changes from the time “from birth” to “before death”. As you can see, a stage of life comes when a person begins to realize that the choices he has made turn out to be unchanged and the feeling of approaching death increases the fear that his past actions were wrong. This causes a feeling of the meaninglessness of his existence, because he has never done anything good in his entire life, and she has already crossed the line that brings him closer to thoughts of its end. At this phase, a person is most often already involved in some kind of professional activity, he may have a relationship and family and managed to make a sufficient number of decisions and choices regarding my life. It is here that the following problems may appear, which V. Frankl attributed to the meaning of work: “Sunday neurosis”, “unemployment neurosis” and also emotional burnout, which A. Langle attributed to an existential vacuum. Therefore, V. Frankl pays great attention in his book “ Doctor and Soul” [12] focused on the meaning of work, where the uniqueness of a person and his meaningful living of life is tied to his deeds and his contributions to society, and not just to his profession. “A profession in itself does not make a person indispensable, it only provides a chance for this” [12, p. 147]. Many people in the modern world devote most of their lives to getting a good position and earning a lot of money, but if this does not work out for one reason or another, then they work in an average job and dream of getting out of this rut. In both the first and second cases, a person is under the influence of social structures and performs a certain set of functional responsibilities, on which the success of achieving goals and receiving an appropriate salary depends, and this also brings the person closer to the feeling of the meaninglessness of his life. The most important thing to understand here is that the significance of a person and the meaning of his activity lie not in the profession itself, but rather in the personal and special that is invested in it, in the uniqueness of a person with the help of which he gives meaning to his life. The same experience can be transferred to other areas of a person’s life, for example personal, where the expression of uniqueness and originality is an absolutely indispensable element for building valuable relationships. Of course, there is work where a person is engaged in monotonous actions throughout the day, and he simply does not have the opportunity to express himself in this - in this case, a person’s life should begin in his free time from work, where he can express himself in the form of his leisure time. But a person also experiences the feeling of free time as something burdensome; he has the feeling that life has stopped - “as soon as the production pace is interrupted for 24 hours, and all the meaninglessness, vacuity, aimlessness of existence appears before one’s eyes” [12, P. 155] .The topic of emotional burnout was also touched upon above as one of the possible developments of a crisis of meaning. A. Langle attributed it to a form of existential vacuum [9], where feelings of emptiness and meaninglessness in connection with a person’s professional activity predominate, where exhaustion also dominates. From the point of view of logotherapy, the syndrome of emotional burnout is explained by a “deficit of true existential meaning” [9, P. 98], persistent fatigue, concentration on achieving results -.
