[quote=Anonymous]As a spouse with anxiety, GO TO THERAPY. The fact that you aren't "a therapy person" potentially speaks to your views on mental health generally. Trust me, your husband does not want to be a burden to you, but please understand that anxiety, even well-managed, can be isolating and lonely. Having a spouse who understands, or even attempts to understand can help alleviate many worries. Finally, just because you don't think things are "worth worrying about" doesn't mean your spouse agrees. Please please don't be dismissive of his feelings. Validate him and ask him how you can help him work through some of his fears. Yes, it may be exhausting for you, I get it. But a little compassion goes a long way. [/quote]
