If you feel an overwhelming and prolonged sense of helplessness and sadness, and your problems do not seem to get better despite your efforts and help from family and friends then therapy is likely for you. If you find it difficult to carry out everyday activities, such as:
Concentrating on assignments at work and your job performance is suffering as a result
If you worry excessively, expect the worst, or are constantly on edge
If your actions are harmful to yourself or to others: for instance, you are drinking too much alcohol, abusing drugs, or becoming overly argumentative and aggressive
If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, you might require the services of a registered psychologist.
