Therapist Overview
You are NOT crazy. During this difficult time, the part of your brain that is concerned with survival is likely feeling out of control, causing your logical self to go offline and your emotional self to be dysregulated. Are your old triggers and dysfunctional coping responses intensifying? Transition and change, trauma, grief, identity questioning, conflict, and attachment — these issues cause us to lose our way, leading us often into hopelessness, loneliness, anxiety, depression, and self-distrust.
