Application Assignment 1 The menopausal and climacteric midlife crises in both men and
women. Female menopause is the time after a woman’s period stops when she can no
longer become pregnant. When a man experiences what is known as a midlife crisis, he has
reached his male climacteric. I’ve chosen to finish my two-page application project on this
subject because I’m interested in learning more. Regarding healing from trauma, making a
plan for the future, safeguarding relationships from the difficulties of midlife, and finding
purpose in aging, social workers can assist people going through a midlife crisis.
Additionally, a social worker can offer assistance with more targeted problems, such as
overcoming adultery, adjusting to a professional shift, or coping with relationship
disappointment. ———————————————————————- 2 page Application
