[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is from prolonged, intense stress. You need to make major lifestyle changes to give him breathing room. He should also consider anti anxiety meds to take the edge off. He needs a reset.

I get this, but how? I am also under stress. We both work and have 2 kids who are intensely needy. The housework is never ending. I do everything I can to support him but don't know how to give him more breathing room when I also feel like I'm drowning. [/quote]

I am sorry, the situation sounds really tough. Please understand though that you need to take steps to prioritize his and your health, I don’t know what that looks like for your family. Paranoia is a manifestation of intense fear, he is so far down the stress spiral the rational brain does not even come on line. Thieve are toxic loops and the longer he stays in this state, the greater the chance this becomes his identity.

I am not saying you have to take on more, that will be terrible for you, you have to figure out how to downsize or change lifestyle for a couple of years to help him.[/quote]
