Answer: Stagnation

Explanation:

Erickson's theory of psychosocial development explains that stagnation is a stage where people between the ages of 40 and 65 fail to find a way to contribute in one way or another to society. People at this stage may feel disconnected or not part of the community and society. They prefer to stay away and avoid contact with others. People at this stage also lose interest in group activities and do not intend to make an effort to relate to others.

A person who is in the stagnation stage looks at how their life has been over the years, where many times they may feel sorry for not having done things they wanted to do, which is considered as midlife crisis.
