Are you struggling with the effects of adjustment disorder?
Right now, as a result of adjustment disorder, you may be experiencing:
- Overwhelming emotions that seem disproportionate to the life change or stressor you’ve encountered
- Difficulty functioning in daily activities at work, school, or in relationships due to your emotional response
- Physical symptoms like insomnia, fatigue, headaches, or stomach issues that appeared after a significant life change
- Persistent worry, sadness, or anxiety that doesn’t seem to improve as time passes
- Withdrawal from social activities or relationships that you previously enjoyed
- Trouble concentrating or making decisions as your mind feels preoccupied with the stressor
- A sense that you’re not coping as well as you “should” with a life transition or challenge
Your adjustment disorder may be getting in the way of your life in these ways:
- Your work performance or academic achievement is suffering as you struggle to focus or maintain motivation
- Your relationships are strained as loved ones may not understand the intensity of your reaction
- Your self-care routines have fallen by the wayside as you feel overwhelmed by your emotional response
- Your ability to find joy or meaning in activities has diminished since the stressful event or change occurred
- Your confidence in your resilience and coping abilities has been shaken by this experience
You’re wondering…
- Why am I having such a hard time adjusting to this change when others seem to handle similar situations with ease?
- Is it normal to feel this level of distress, or is something more serious happening with my mental health?
- How long will these intense feelings last, and will I ever feel like myself again?
- What’s the difference between an adjustment disorder and other conditions like depression or anxiety?
- What strategies can help me cope more effectively with this transition or stressor?
You’re longing for…

- Practical coping strategies that help you manage the specific stressor you’re facing.
