Do you feel your life is out of control?

You feel detached from your life.

Moving through each day, invisible and unheard.

Getting out of bed each morning could be the most challenging part of the day – only you know it will get worse.

Your self-esteem is at an all-time low.

Anxiety is constant.

What’s not to worry about? It’s everything – your family, your job, and all your relationships.

You worry about things entirely beyond your control, like politics, the environment, and the future.

An ever-present fear and sadness weigh you down.

Nothing is ever good enough.

Your accomplishments are meaningless; you still feel like a total failure when you’re anything less than perfect.

Pushing yourself harder should make a difference – longer hours, fewer breaks, every second of your schedule packed.

It’s exhausting and draining to live this way, but the idea of letting anyone down is too much to bear.

Your relationship is suffering.

This constant tension leads to resentment, tension, and irritability at home.

You’ve started staying late at work or taking the long way home just to limit your time with your partner.

Constant arguments and disrespect have turned your love and intimacy into distant memories.

And it extends to – or starts with – your teen.

You try your best to shield your teen from your struggles, but they know something is wrong.

They’ve stopped listening to you, their grades are suffering, and they’ve begun misbehaving at school.

You’re so worried about their future, but when you try to talk to them, it pushes them further away.

You don’t know what to do.

Despite all your best efforts, nothing you do seems to make any difference.

You aren’t ready to give up on everything you’ve built, but you don’t think you can continue like this.

Sometimes, you wonder if you’ll be stuck struggling this way forever.
