Do you wonder if what you're feeling is normal sometimes? Are you wondering why you are so forgetful, can't concentrate, or quickly get distracted? Have you asked yourself why it's so hard to get out of bed in the morning, why you have no energy to do your day-to-day activities, or why you lack the motivation to participate in life anymore? You can sometimes be tearful for no reason. Is it hard to fall asleep at night? Have you experienced trauma that has left you feeling anxious and on edge?
