When siblings struggle together with empty nest identity shifts

My brother and I are both dealing with empty nest stuff and we keep joking about it when we talk but underneath I think we're both kind of lost about what comes next. Our wives think we should be celebrating our freedom but neither of us knows how to admit that we're actually struggling with not being needed the same way anymore.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Family members experiencing parallel life transitions must decide whether to maintain surface-level coping or risk vulnerability by acknowledging shared struggles.
