A person is faced with conflicting motives or obstacles to his needs time and again in his life. A well-adjusted individual is said to possess general satisfaction in all spheres of life including work, family, self; has positive beliefs and emotions and is able to function adequately free of mental illness. The problems associated with poor adjustment include OCD, depression, inability to keep jobs, apathy, lack of concentration, generalised anxiety, substance abuse, inability to give and receive love etc. Anger management, assertiveness training, personality development, self-esteem building, occupational therapy are some approaches to take care of issues related to personal adjustment.
