What Adult Crisis Really Is
Adult crisis often hides behind productivity, parenting, employment, caregiving, leadership, and daily responsibilities. People in crisis frequently continue functioning while feeling emotionally overwhelmed inside.
Crisis occurs when pressure exceeds your ability to manage, process, or recover from what you are carrying.
