Adjustment Disorder:
Navigating Change with Evolving Minds Counselling
Adjustment disorders can significantly disrupt daily life for children, adolescents and adults. They often arise in response to stressful life events, leading to a range of symptoms including low mood, anxiety, trouble sleeping, and difficulty concentrating. These responses can make it hard to carry out everyday activities and can affect relationships, work, and school performance.
Recognising the Symptoms
​​
Adjustment Disorder often manifests through a range of emotional and behavioural symptoms that can vary from person to person.
At Evolving Minds Counselling, we help you recognise and understand these symptoms, which may include feelings of anxiety, sadness, or hopelessness, as well as difficulty concentrating, irritability, and withdrawal from social activities.
By identifying these signs early, we can work together to develop effective coping strategies and support your journey toward a more balanced and fulfilling life.
Some common signs of adjustment disorder include:
-
Feelings of hopelessness, sadness, or anger.
-
Withdrawing from social interactions, neglecting responsibilities, or avoiding previously enjoyed activities.
-
Changes in appetite, increased fatigue, or difficulty sleeping.
-
Trouble concentrating or making decisions.
