Anxiety Attacks Can Be Started By Stress

By Kathy Nelson

Your wife will probably know there is something wrong with you that requires you to go see a Dr long before you even thing about it. Men who are not married have a significantly lower life expectancy then men who are married.

As we enter into tough financial times in our present economy the pressures that we all face on a regular basis due to financial problems which occur in every family from time to time will increase. America is currently seeing the highest amount of foreclosures since records started being kept and this along with fears of job downsizing causes worry and stress to the best of us.

The TV news is full of reports of foreclosures, lower wages and job cuts that are happening all over the USA. These reports cause me some anxiety and I know that my house is safe and so is my job. If you know that your family is under some additional financial pressure and your partner has a history of anxiety then you must pay even more close attention to them than ever before.

This could well be the tipping point when the moments of anxiety will turn into a full blown anxiety or panic attack. As the number of job losses and foreclosures rise so will the number of divorces and separations, but you do not have to become a statistic.

If your partner (or you) start showing signs of avoiding social situations, shaking before seeing anyone, fear of things that never bothered them previously and nausea then there is a good chance that they (or you) have anxiety.

Blaming each other for the situation you are currently in will not help you at all. Blaming each other will just mean that you spend even longer arguing and fighting before you come around and start dealing with the situation as it is rather than how you wish it was.

Anxiety attacks can be totally debilitating, they can also ruin the life of not just the person who suffers with them but their spouse as well. Since anxiety affects both of you to some degree, you should both be willing to go and discuss it with experts. You are not the first couple to be in this situation so don't worry about being embarrassed.

Remember that your marriage is more important than any property, you can always get another house while it is a lot harder to build up the love and friendship that comes with years of marriage. - 29881
