Lately things have been really confusing. You're not spending as much time as you used to with friends and family. Maybe you are feeling lonely, or maybe you prefer being alone right now. Everything just feels like too much. You aren't sleeping well. You are afraid no one will understand what's going through your head. You used to enjoy life but recently something has changed and you're not sure how to get back to your old self. You want to move forward from here, but you don't know where to start.

Has your “life as usual” recently changed and you are having a hard time adjusting?
