Needless to say, when personal troubles come knocking at the door, it’s not just our personal lives that take a hit. Eventually, work performance might become dissatisfactory, moods start shifting and enthusiasm makes way to lethargy. One should watch out for signs and implement methods to recognise the cause behind them, and together work towards a solution. An employee passing through a mental health problem might need different support than one who’s lacking motivation. The best advice can only be shared by a professional; so if you know someone who needs support or if you’re the one in need, seek a psychiatrist who has the right tools to help through this difficult period.
