How to Deal with Anxiety Attacks
So yesterday me and my boyfriend decided to go on a break because I still have some anxiety issues that I need to work out. I love and want to be with him, but I knew we’d both continue to hurt if we kept going. I just want to learn how to deal with my anxiety attacks. I’ll get triggered by him not responding to my texts sometimes because I’m afraid he has just lost interest in me (even though I know that’s not true). As soon as I’m triggered my heart starts pounding, I’ll start to panic, I have to get outside and then I just cry for hours. I hate feeling that which is why I ended it. Afterwards I always feel emotionally and physically drained. Does anyone have ideas on how to cope with this?
@secretSpruce8357 Hi, i'm sorry that you are dealing with anxiety. First of all, you need to analize why your anxiety is triggered when your bf it's not replying to your texts, it may be triggered by some trust issues, or something else. Secondly we don't find ways to cope with our anxiety, this is actually increasing our anxiety, instead we try to accept our anxious thoughts and change them with more realistic thoughts. If you want i can listen to your story more in depth, so feel free to start a chat with me if you want. Lots of love!
