My husband has had numerous doctors visits due to anxiety over health issues. I am at a loss because all of the clinical, blood tests, MRI s all prove he is healthy. This is a second time marriage 8 years in August and I have known him for a total of 12 years. I think he is suffering from an anxiety disorder regarding his health much like I would of the cuff say he was a hypochondriac. I researched the meaning and it fits him. He is scheduled to see a psychiatrist upon my son s recommendation. My son is an ER doctor. I feel I no longer have a husband but a child. Very sad after several good years of marriage. Don t know what our future will hold because I have to think of my well being. It s difficult to handle mental issues, physical I can handle but this is beyond my understanding. Any suggestions?
Dear serve understand your concerns went through your details. Anxiety disorder is not a mental disease but is a mental disorder which usually go away its own provided the apt life changes are made. Secondly symptoms associated with anxiety is part of bodies defense mechanism and confusing those as scaring symptoms worsens the problems. I suggest counseling and psychotherapy for your husband.
