Common "Psychogenic Reactions." queries answered by top doctors | iCliniq

Psychogenic Reactions.

Psychogenic reactions or adjustment disorders are conditions wherein individuals find it challenging to adjust to a significant change in their life or stress for extended periods. In simpler words, it is difficult for them to move on from a negatively impacting life condition. This restricts their normal daily life activities and takes a toll on their mental health. Though this is common among children and adolescents, it is not rare among adults. Loss of dear ones or a pet, separation, chronic illness or hospitalization, problematic work or school environment, divorce, financial loss, etc., are some scenarios causing adjustment disorders.
