Adjustment Disorder
Adjustment disorder is a psychological condition which develops when an individual is unable to cope with or adjust to a particular stressor or life event. Common symptoms of adjustment disorder include anxiety, depression, and emotional distress. Treatment often involves psychotherapy, medications, and/or lifestyle adjustments. Adjustment disorder is important to recognize and treat, as it can prevent further mental health issues such as depression, anxiety, and post-traumatic stress disorder. Early diagnosis and treatment can help an individual transition to a healthier state of mental wellbeing.
