adjustment disorders

Adjustment disorders are a group of mental health conditions that occur in response to a significant life event or stressor. They are characterized by symptoms such as emotional distress, changes in behavior, and difficulty functioning in daily life.

Some common examples of events or stressors that can trigger an adjustment disorder include:

  • A major change in one's life, such as a move, divorce, or the death of a loved one
  • A traumatic event, such as a natural disaster, a serious accident, or a crime
  • A significant loss, such as the loss of a job, a breakup, or the loss of a pet
  • A medical condition or illness, especially one that is serious or life-threatening
  • Starting or ending a new job or school

The symptoms of an adjustment disorder can vary from person to person, but may include:

  • Depression, sadness, or tearfulness
  • Anxiety or worry
  • Irritability, anger, or aggression
  • Difficulty sleeping or concentrating
  • Changes in appetite or weight
  • Fatigue or low energy
  • Substance abuse or other harmful behaviors

Treatment for an adjustment disorder typically involves talking with a mental health professional and receiving counseling or therapy. In some cases, medication may also be recommended to help manage symptoms, such as anxiety or depression.

It's important to seek help if you're experiencing symptoms of an adjustment disorder. With proper treatment, most people are able to recover and move on from the event or stressor that triggered their symptoms. In some cases, adjustment disorders can be a precursor to a more serious mental health condition, so prompt treatment is important.

Disease Causes

Adjustment disorders

Adjustment disorders are caused by significant changes or stressors in your life. Genetics, your life experiences, and your temperament may increase your likelihood of developing an adjustment disorder.


Disease Prevents

Adjustment disorders

There are no guaranteed ways to prevent adjustment disorders. But developing healthy coping skills and learning to be resilient may help you during times of high stress.

If you know that a stressful situation is coming up — such as a move or retirement — call on your inner strength, increase your healthy habits and rally your social supports in advance. Remind yourself that this is usually time-limited and that you can get through it. Also consider checking in with your doctor or mental health professional to review healthy ways to manage your stress.


Disease Treatments
Adjustment disorders

Many people with adjustment disorders find treatment helpful, and they often need only brief treatment. Others, including those with persistent adjustment disorders or ongoing stressors, may benefit from longer treatment. Treatments for adjustment disorders include psychotherapy, medications or both.

Psychotherapy

Psychotherapy, also called talk therapy, is the main treatment for adjustment disorders. This can be provided as individual, group or family therapy. Therapy can:

  • Provide emotional support
  • Help you get back to your normal routine
  • Help you learn why the stressful event affected you so much
  • Help you learn stress-management and coping skills to deal with stressful events

Medications

Medications such as antidepressants and anti-anxiety drugs may be added to help with symptoms of depression and anxiety.

As with therapy, you may need medications only for a few months, but don't stop taking any medication without talking with your doctor first. If stopped suddenly, some medications, such as certain antidepressants, may cause withdrawal-like symptoms.
