Life is everchanging. Times of transition can exacerbate stress, even if they are positive transitions, like starting a new job, falling in love, or having a child.
Life transitions can include changes in:
- Employment (new job, promotion, job loss, career change)
- School (starting, ending)
- Relationship status (starting a new relationship, going through a breakup, getting married)
- Family status (transitioning to family with 1st child, adding more, adoption, fostering)
- Home environment (moving to a new home, rehabbing, somebody moving in or out)
- Finances (due to divorce, a large expense, job loss, changes in the economy, inheritance)
