Patricia, you need to learn to stop worrying. I come from a long line of worriers & I use to worry about anything & everything!

Ask yourself this "will my worrying change my husband's work situation?" Take any situation, break it down & ask yourself will my worrying change the situation?

I just posted a mini autobiography on my friend's thread in the substance abuse forum. In 2yrs., I had to call an ambulance for my hubs over 50 times. After a yr., I started having panic attacks & was diagnosed w/PTSD. I would literally flip out every time I thought my hubs was sick.

I saw psychiatrists for 10yrs. Nothing seemed to help me. Until I got & stayed clean. I came here to SR & it was here that I learned about CBT ( Cognitive behavioral therapy. ) I learned to break down whatever I feared. I haven't flipped out once since I recovered from withdrawals.

You have the determination. Now you just need the know how, support & the time clean.

Big ((( Hugs ))) hun!
