Adjustment Disorder refers to a psychological disturbance that develops in response to a stressor. Adjustment disorders are caused by specific sources of stress , such as severe personal crisis (divorce, death of loved one, recent abuse, recent job changes) or major unexpected negative events (tornado or fire destroys a person's home). The usual symptoms mimic depression , anxiety , or sleep disorder ; however the disturbance disorder is short-term and can usually be treated with counselling or mild short-term medication. If the problem persists more than six months after removal of the stressor, the person may have a more permanent problem, such as a chronic mood or sleep disorder.
