More Information Overview Studies examining the prevalence of mental disorders in cancer show that most cancer patients do not meet the diagnostic criteria for any specific mental disorder; however, many patients do experience a variety of difficult emotional responses. In order to effectively match patient needs and treatment interventions, health care professionals must be able to distinguish the periodic difficulties that characterize normal adjustment from more serious mental disorders. Psychosocial distress exists on a continuum (Figure 1) ranging from normal adjustment issues through the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-IV) Adjustment Disorders; to a level close to, but below, the threshold (i.e., meets some diagnostic criteria but not all) of diagnosable mental disorders; to syndromes that meet the full diagnostic criteria for a mental disorder (e.g., major depressive disorder). This summary focuses primarily on the less severe end of this continuum: the normal adjustment issues, psychosocial distress, and the adjustment disorders. (Refer to the PDQ summaries on

About PDQ Introduction This patient summary on normal adjustment, psychosocial distress, and the adjustment disorders is adapted from a summary written for health professionals by cancer experts. This and other credible information about cancer treatment, screening, prevention, supportive care, and ongoing clinical trials, is available from the National Cancer Institute. Most patients with cancer experience a variety of emotional responses, however, they do not have signs and symptoms of any specific mental disorder. Psychological and social distress can be experienced at many levels ranging from normal adjustment to adjustment disorders to major mental disorders (for example, major depressive disorder). This brief summary describes normal adjustment issues, psychological and social distress, and the adjustment disorders. (Refer to the PDQ summaries on Anxiety Disorders and Depression for more information.)

Home Services Festival of Trees Common Disorders ... Mental Health Minute Adjustment Disorders Adjustment disorders are the result of identifiable stress situations that cause emotional or behavioral symptoms to develop within three months of the onset of the situation. They can be a reaction to life stresses such as divorce, death, job loss, moving, health problems, etc. Signs and Symptoms When these stressful experiences cause reactions of marked distress, which appears to be in excess of what would be expected, an adjustment disorder is likely. When the stress results in a substantial impact on an individual´s ability to function in a social, occupational or educational setting, this also is a signal. Since this is usually a short-term disorder, once the stressful situation (or its consequences) has ended, the symptoms should disappear within six months.

Psychiatry Psychiatry, Adult and Older Adolescent Psychiatry, Forensic Mental Health Disorders Depression (Treatment Study) Depression (Combined Therapy) Adjustment Disorders Adjustment Disorders What is an adjustment disorder? An adjustment disorder is defined as an emotional or behavioral reaction to an identifiable stressful event or change in a person's life that is considered maladaptive or somehow not an expected healthy response to the event or change. The reaction must occur within three months of the identified stressful event or change happening. The identifiable stressful event or change in the life of a child or adolescent may be a family move, parental divorce or separation, the loss of a pet, birth of a brother or sister, to name a few. What causes adjustment disorders? Adjustment disorders are a reaction to stress. There is not a single direct cause between the stressful event and the reaction. Children and adolescents vary in their temperament, past experiences, vulnerability, and coping skills. Their developmental stage and the capacity of their support system to meet their specific needs related to the stress are factors that may contribute to their reaction to a particular stress. Stressors also vary in duration, intensity, and effect. No evidence is available to suggest a specific biological factor that causes adjustment disorders. Who is affected by adjustment disorders?
