About Adjustment Disorder

Adjustment Disorder is not a medical procedure but a mental health condition diagnosed and treated by psychiatrists. It is characterized by an emotional or behavioral reaction to an identifiable stressor or life change, occurring within three months of the event. Symptoms, which are disproportionate to the stressor, can include anxiety, depressed mood, disturbance of conduct, or a mix of these, and cause significant impairment in social, occupational, or other important areas of functioning. Treatment in psychiatry typically involves psychotherapy, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) or supportive counseling, to help patients develop healthy coping mechanisms. In some cases, medication may be prescribed to manage severe symptoms like anxiety or depression. The goal is to alleviate distress and improve daily functioning.
