Emotional turmoil arises when you lack the assurance and sincerity to pursue a life filled with purposeful endeavors and positive actions. Diminished self-worth, wavering confidence, unhealthy relationship dynamics, dwindling motivation, career setbacks, or persistent anxiety all contribute to a detrimental self-perception and interpersonal interactions, resulting in symptoms that may exacerbate a descent into distress.
