Hello

I am Jells. I am married to a great guy who is suffering from Anxiety (which is 'peaking' at the moment) for around 6 years now and so I thought perhaps there could be some helpful tips for me to help him around the boards.

We are off to a new GP on Saturday to try and get more active about helping DH with his Anxiety.

We have a 3yr old son together.

Look forward to 'talking' to you! :D

I have anxiety also, don't give up on him. We or myself say things that I don't mean to say. Sometimes we do stupid things and we push away. Don't let him push away. Not sayin he does but from my own experience. If he is panicking be by his side but don't start asking questions it only makes anxiety worse. Get him a book or something to try to focus his mind. Or writing eases mine a little. Just let him calm down. Now the other symptoms with anxiety I don't think ever fully go away. Even on medicine. The symptoms may not be as bad but there still here. Then if he startsmeds be prepared there are side effects and for some they may not have them. But I do. Just be there for him and don't give up!!!
