You don’t have to figure everything out alone

Counseling for Young Adults in Houston, TX

You’ve tried ignoring it. You’ve told yourself to “just chill.” You’ve kept yourself busy so you don’t have to think about what’s actually going on. But even then—your mind won’t slow down. The stress hits out of nowhere. One moment you feel fine, and the next you’re overwhelmed, anxious, irritated, or completely shut down.

You catch yourself wondering, “Why am I like this? Why can’t I just get it together like everyone else seems to?”

Some days you feel numb and disconnected. Other days everything hits you all at once and you can’t explain why. You’re worn out from overthinking, trying to meet expectations, and pretending you’re okay when you’re not. You want support, but you’re not sure how to ask for it. You don’t want to be a burden. You don’t want to be judged or brushed off.

And the truth is—you’re tired of carrying all of this by yourself.

What You Might Be Noticing

Anger or reactions that feel “too big” 😤
You snap over small things, feel irritated for no clear reason, or get overwhelmed fast. It’s not because you’re dramatic—it’s because your nervous system is on overload.

Shutting down or pulling away 😶‍🌫️
You isolate, cancel plans, or go quiet because everything feels too heavy to deal with. Going numb sometimes feels easier than trying to explain what’s going on.

Random crying or constant irritability 😢🔥
Your mood shifts quickly. You can go from holding it together to tears or frustration without warning—and even you don’t always understand why.

Anxiety at night or dread about school/work 🌙💭
Your brain spirals when it’s finally quiet. Or you wake up already stressed about responsibilities, expectations, or situations you don’t feel ready for.

Low motivation or struggling to keep up 😩📉
Tasks that used to feel easy now feel impossible. You’re exhausted, behind on assignments, or losing interest in things you usually care about. It’s not laziness—it’s emotional burnout.

Negative self-talk or feeling “not enough” 💔
You’re harder on yourself than anyone else is. Thoughts like “I’m failing,” “I can’t do this,” or “I’m not good enough” show up more often than you’d like to admit.
