Suggest Treatment For Panic Attacks And Anxiety

default
Posted on Wed, 10 Aug 2016
Question: I am undergoing a tremendous amount of stress including panic attacks and constant anxiety. Because of this I am desperate to get back with my estranged wife. this is someone who 3 weeks ago I was determined I needed to not be with. I am terrified of this loss now. Is it common that people do this under stress or is it simply that I love her. I know you can't answer that but, how could one go from adamantly against a relationship to desperate for it in a matter of a couple of weeks? I did in the interim experience a traumatic event in which she was very supportive
thank you

Brief Answer:
Grief from Lost love - implications

Detailed Answer:
Dear XXXX. Welcome to HCM. I can understand.

First of all I wish to know, whether your stress and panic attacks are anxiety are associated with your decision not to be with your wife or was those present even before 3 weeks back.

How was your family life? For how many years you were together? How many children you have? Your Occupation and general family background? Your wife's family back ground and occupation? Do you have any physical illness? Is there any other reason for your tremendous amount of stress and anxiety? What is the reason behind your decision to leave your wife?Please provide answers to these questions and make sure you be as detailed as possible.

You are in deep love with your wife, I can see that. When you deeply love your wife and when you decide to separate, there has to be a bereavement emotion, and suffering is common. Usually depression, stress disorder symptoms will be present till the affected person adjust with the situation. The adjustment process could take anywhere from two months to one year and is dependent on many factors.

You also say something about a traumatic experience during which your wife was very supportive. In that sense, without her support, you may not have dealt with properly in that traumatic experience. This support has given another angle to your love with your wife. What is that traumatic experience? Can you explain?

In view of the above said love and the support you got from your wife, I suggest you to be with her. You need her more than she needs you. small and medium differences can be dealt with discussions and adjustments. Take the right decision. I will provide all possible support. Take care.
