CONSIDERING PSYCHOTHERAPY
Weathering life’s challenges sometimes takes a toll on all of us. As we go through stressful life changes and transitions, or unexpectedly come face to face with painful or traumatic events, our abilities to cope may become compromised despite our best efforts. Under these overwhelming circumstances, our emotions and behaviors may respond in ways that are counterproductive or harmful to aspects of our lives and the people we care about.
Some signs that your capacity to cope is becoming overwhelmed:
- ongoing feelings of depression and hopelessness
- excessive worrying or anxiousness
- patterns of avoidance or impulsivity
- behaving or feeling unlike your usual self
Although resilient, everyone has his or her limitations. When your usual ways of coping with problems begin to interfere with areas of your life and your relationships, you may wonder how to change what is not working.
