“I Should Be Coping Better Than This”
One of the most common things clients say lately is...:
“Nothing is really wrong… so why do I feel like this?”
Here’s the truth:
When the world feels unstable, your body registers that stress — even if you’re functioning well on the outside.
You might notice:
Trouble sleeping
Feeling snappy or impatient
Tight chest or racing thoughts
Difficulty switching off
Emotional numbness
A sense of quiet dread
This isn’t weakness. It’s nervous system overload.
The Hidden Impact of Constant Stress:
We’re not built for sustained uncertainty.
When stress becomes chronic, it doesn’t always look dramatic. Sometimes it looks like:
Overworking to stay in control
Scrolling to avoid thinking
Snapping at people you love
Feeling disconnected from yourself
You might still be showing up. Paying bills. Going to work.
But inside, you feel tired in a way that sleep doesn’t fix.
Therapy Isn’t Just for Crisis
You don’t need a breakdown to deserve support.
In times like these, therapy can help you:
Regulate your nervous system
Process underlying anxiety
Set boundaries around work and news consumption
Build emotional resilience
Feel more grounded and steady
It’s not about “fixing” you.
It’s about helping your body and mind feel safe again.

If You’ve Been Holding It Together…
Maybe you don’t need to hold it together quite so tightly anymore.
You don’t have to wait until things get worse.
You’re allowed to get support simply because life feels heavy.
