While being a strong human who can manage everything like a boss is certainly admirable, neglecting one's mental and emotional well-being can ultimately have its fair share of negative impacts. It's important to recognize that being strong doesn't mean being invincible, and everyone needs to take care of themselves in order to function at their best. Ignoring mental and emotional needs can lead to feelings of burnout, anxiety, depression, and other mental health issues. It can also lead to strained relationships with loved ones, as well as decreased productivity and overall quality of life.

Most people come to therapy in order to change their behavior. They fail to do this because they don't deal with the cause of the behavior which are the emotions and feelings they have. When those people do try to deal with their emotions and feelings, they fail because they are based on their thinking process. Please feel free to call my office. 941-237-1199
