[quote=Anonymous]My DH has developed anxiety for which he will not yet take medication or seek counselling. I'm very tired of walking on eggshells and need some coping mechanisms. Last week, I pretty gently suggested he try to pick up some slack around the house, and he landed in the ER last night with a full-blown panic attack because I "stressed him out" last week. For context, the conversation was Tuesday in the car, he ignored me that night, and then he said he wanted to talk about it more on Wednesday and Thursday (but he never did and I didn't raise it). He started having chest pains on the couch last night while watching TV. I'm covering 100% of the bills, dealing with my own health stuff, fulfilling his sexual needs, and doing more than 50% of the childcare and house upkeep. I don't want to kill the man, but I don't know how to communicate with him as he is at the moment. I'm both terrified and frustrated.[/quote]
