Description
According to Erikson's stages, the onset of the identity crisis is in the teenage years, and only individuals who succeed in resolving the crisis will be ready to face future challenges in life. But the identity crisis may well be recurring, as the changing world demands us to constantly redefine ourselves. Erikson suggested that people experience an identity crisis when they lose "a sense of personal sameness and historical continuity". Given today's rapid development in technology, global economy, dynamics in local and world politics, one might expect identity crises to recur more commonly now than even thirty years ago, when Erikson formed his theory.

You truely captured your words in this picture.
I believe that each of Erickson's proposed stages may reflect solely on the outcome of the previous stage. And that ultimate recognition of your identity is unavoidable in life no matter your age. So the subject of an identity crisis is universally relatable.
