🧠 Understanding Stressor-Related Disorders
When Life’s Challenges Become Too Heavy
We all experience stress — but sometimes, a major life event or trauma can lead to serious emotional and psychological difficulties. These are known as Stressor-Related Disorders, and they are real, diagnosable, and treatable medical conditions.
🔍 What Are Stressor-Related Disorders?
These disorders occur as a reaction to a major stressor, such as:
- Loss of a loved one
- Serious accident or illness
- Divorce or relationship breakdown
- Job loss or financial crisis
- Natural disasters or violence
🩺 Common Stressor-Related Disorders Include:
- Acute Stress Reaction – immediate response after a traumatic event
- Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) – distress lasting long after the trauma
- Adjustment Disorder – emotional struggles following a major life change
⚠️ Signs & Symptoms to Watch For:
- Anxiety, panic, or excessive fear
- Nightmares or flashbacks
- Irritability or emotional outbursts
- Withdrawal from people or activities
- Difficulty sleeping or concentrating
- Constant feelings of being “on edge”
- Depression or hopelessness
