How sources are used

- Represent the source narrowly and avoid copying its authority onto unrelated advice.
- Link directly to the original organization rather than a secondary summary when possible.
- Review links and material claims when an article is substantially updated.
When WorkLens is not enough
Use WorkLens to organize what you are noticing—not to decide whether you have a health condition. Seek qualified help when distress is persistent, worsening, difficult to manage or affecting sleep, safety, relationships or everyday functioning. In an immediate emergency, contact local emergency services.
