Life can be challenging, at times overwhelming. Without knowing it, a setback in your life could send you down a path of depression. Uncertainty about your future, emotional upheavals or simply losing confidence can all take a toll on your mental health.

Many people are currently facing feelings of insecurity because of the COVID-19 pandemic. Job losses are common, investments are crashing and families are losing their homes. While some people are able to handle insecurity better than others, it does not mean you should not seek help. Is it time you see a professional?

A Psychologist Can Help You

Psychologists are trained to counsel you through a variety of different situations. If you are wondering if you should visit a psychologist, use these 5 signs to help you decide.

Lost of Interest in LIfe

Have you lost all motivation for everyday life? Do you suffer from fatigue the moment you wake up? Are you feeling hopeless? Depression is a common mental health disorder that can be treated with the right therapy.

Misuse of Drugs

When life gets tough, you want to escape from it. A doctor prescribes some tranquilisers and before you know it, you can’t live without them. One day you wake up and realise you are addicted to it. Substance abuse is dangerous and eventually will affect your health, both physically & mentally.

Psychologists are trained to help you wean off the drugs while dealing with the underlying emotional issues.

Anxious and Stressed

Worry and stress can lead to extreme feelings of anxiety. It’s normal to feel overwhelmed or insecure at times. But when you find you can’t handle it anymore this is a sure sign to visit a psychologist. Anxiety can cause you to have sleepless nights, loss of appetite and even having suicidal thoughts.

Losing Someone Close to You

Loss is a heavy emotion to deal with. It is important to grieve any loss and psychologists can help you through this process. Sometimes, you may feel you are a burden on a friend or family member when talking about your loss. Speaking to a psychologist will help you to talk freely without worrying about chasing family or friends away.

Not Feeling Like Yourself

If you’re experiencing feelings of sadness, anger or simply don’t feel like “yourself”, these are signs that something is not working in your life. A psychologist will help you figure out what the problems are before they become too serious. It is important to find help before it gets out of hand.

Looking after Your Mental Health is Vital

Unfortunately, too often, mental health disorders are stigmatised. It is because of this that many people who need to find help, prefer not to. In order to keep a balanced mind, body and soul it is vital to seek the right help. By turning to psychologists, you are doing the right thing for your wellbeing. If any of the signs mentioned above resonate with you, then it’s time to visit a psychologist.
