Retirement Adjustment

What is Retirement Adjustment?

Retirement adjustment refers to the emotional, psychological, and relational changes that can occur when leaving paid employment. While retirement is often anticipated positively, it can also involve loss of routine, identity, and social connection. Adjusting to this new phase may bring mixed emotions including relief, uncertainty, or grief. Retirement adjustment is about learning how to redefine purpose, structure, and wellbeing in this significant life transition.

How Retirement Adjustment Affects Your Life

Retirement can affect daily structure, self esteem, and social engagement. Without the routines of work, some people experience boredom, restlessness, or a sense of reduced purpose.

Relationships may also shift as time together increases or roles change. Financial concerns, health changes, or caregiving responsibilities can further complicate adjustment and emotional balance.
