What to do if your relationship is in trouble...
If you are experiencing tension or trouble in your relationship or relationships, you may be questioning whether you should stay, feeling afraid of losing your partner, experiencing disappointment, hopelessness, shame, or simply want to do prevention work. Relationship troubles can manifest as depression, anxiety, addictions and health problems.
