Hello,



I am new here and am looking to find ways to better myself. I have been dealing with depression and anxiety my entire life and last weekened had one of the worst panic attacks I have ever had. I worry about everything and need to make sure I dont mess things up. My other half witnessed my panic attack and was there for me but is now very distant and couldnt look,talk, or touch me. I think I scared him very much but am now dealing with my end of things, my fathers recent death, and the non verbal shutting down boyfriend that distances his self when bigger things happen. I need help with all of this and more and dont know what else to do.

Welcome to the anxiety board at DS.

You are writing it out. The more you write it out, the easier it is sort the thoughts and make a plan that works for you to find your calm.

I am so sorry you are going through a rough time. You are not alone. I have been in your shoes before. Maybe it's a good time to talk with your other half about what you're going through so that he can better understand your situation. I'm sorry for the loss of your father. My father has passed away as well. That can be a life-changing situation. Have you ever thought about talking to a counselor? Doing that has tremendously helped me in my life. Hugs to you...things will get better in time. Just take things one day at a time!

    My therapist really knocked some sense into me last Friday about my spending.  She said that there are needs and there are wants.  She said that there is always going to be cheap stuff to buy, but do I need it?  The answer is mostly "no".  So today, I am taking back some things that I bought online at Kohl's, namely a 9 x 12 rug and a quilt for my bed.  I also bought sheets that I don't need...
