  • Lack of social skills

Vague complaints

Even if you do not recognise yourself in the symptoms previously described, but do feel stuck in your life and/or experience limitations in your functioning, you can always request an introductory meeting*. Vague complaints in particular can be a good reason to request such a meeting. Big problems are often hiding behind these kinds of complaints.
