Miami Life Transitions Counseling Helps You Make Sense of Emotions
Life transitions can also illicit difficult emotions within you. They are often in conflict with what you would expect to feel from the event. Such as experiencing post-partum depression after the arrival of a new baby – which is supposed to be a happy event. It is easy to be confused by your feelings or think something is wrong with you when the feeling you’re experiencing doesn’t match the expectation of the event that is happening in your life. When you are feeling these conflicting thoughts and emotions life transitions therapy can help.
Symptoms That Life Transitions Therapy Helps With
While not all life transitions are negative, negative emotions can still be apparent. It’s important to understand
Feeling overwhelmed
Loss of appetite
Difficulty sleeping
Increased irritability
Loss of enjoyment of previously loved activities
Mood changes
Sadness
Life transitions can differ from generalized anxiety and depression symptoms in that there is typically a pinpointable cause. It is typically a specific event or circumstance that caused the symptoms. It’s normal to experience some stress and anxiety when a life transition happens because it helps our bodies prepare for something or adjust to new circumstances. It is important to know that significant disruption of normal habits is a sure sign to seek professional help from a life transitions therapist.
Why Change is Difficult
Sometimes, we get comfortable in familiarity because we know how to respond to familiarity, even if that familiarity is negative. It may be hard, for example, to know a relationship is not good for you but choose to stay because life outside of that relationship may be unclear and uncertain. Change is not always comfortable which often leads people to avoid making change. This is where Miami Vibes Counseling can help. We can help you make that step towards positive change.
