*How to love someone with anxiety after going insane from carrying the entire mental load while they refuse to get help.
Hey, it’s a list of my ex husbands favorite tips and tricks!
Did you know that “square breathing” exercises are not helpful when someone’s yelling at you to do them?
I’m sorry to hear about your bastard ex husband. The only thing that’s really helped my anxiety is drugs. I’m guessing you’ve tried that though. Square breathing never really worked for me. Hope things are better now.
Anything you say, do, or express interest in, can and will be used against you.
This brings to mind the highly underrated movie Stuart Saves His Family. Surviving toxic people is hard, but it’s even harder for anyone with anxiety disorders.
I have ADD, and my partner has GAD. I always feel bad about the pacing. 90% of the time, I’ve lost my train of thought/ something. I noticed if I say, “I’m fine; I’m just looking for something.”, it helps a lot. She describes them as “frantic footsteps”. I can understand why that would freak people out.
I could be wrong but I think the pacing referred to in this post is a physical manifestation of impatience.
Have you ever tried gaslighting someone?
That shit isn’t as easy as they make it sound.
There’s no such thing as gaslighting. You’re making it up because you’re paranoid that everyone’s out to get you.
that shit isn’t as easy as they make it sound.
Yeah it is. You must be remembering it wrong.
The secret is persistence.
