Hey all--
I just wanted to ask if anybody else is having this problem. I've tried to explain to my boyfriend what I'm going through, the feelings I'm having, the anxiety, and he just doesn't understand. He tells me to "just stop worrying." I tell him "ok, let me just find that 'off' button." I know that he's frustrated with me being like this--but I think I've done pretty well in catching myself in this--I've only been really bad like this for 6 months, others have been way worse off than myself for longer amount of time.
I've explained to him that this is a 15 week program, and to just have some patience with me--he and I have been together for over 6 years, through thick and thin. So he's just not saying anything after I tell him to have patience with it. But he thinks I'm faking it when I have an anxiety attack, or when I'm dizzy or feeling foggy (living in my jello world). I don't know how to explain this all to him to get him to just understand or at least "know" what I'm going through and deal with it until I can get a grip on real life.
Anybody else having this problem? What have you done to resolve it?
