Is Money And Anxiety Ruining Your Marriage?

Married men live longer than unmarried men, it is a fact that has been reported over and over again from various studies. Women seem to be able to tell when their husband needs to see a Dr before he knows himself and they make sure he eats sensibly and generally looks after himself.

Most couples will experience some financial ups and downs at some point in their relationship. That is perfectly normal, but what really matters is how you deal with them. As a couple you must communicate your feelings , even the negative ones, with each other or they will sit there and fester until they explode.

The TV news is full of reports of foreclosures, lower wages and job cuts that are happening all over the USA. These reports cause me some anxiety and I know that my house is safe and so is my job. If you know that your family is under some additional financial pressure and your partner has a history of anxiety then you must pay even more close attention to them than ever before.

Anxiety attacks can lay in wait for you for years, coming to the fore when you are suddenly put under some sort of extra ordinary pressure. If you are facing a job lay of or are experiencing financial problems then there is a good chance that you could start to experience feelings of anxiety and panic.

During times of stress it can be difficult to work out what is normal behavior and what are the warning signs of a impending anxiety attack. If you notice your spouse showing signs of nausea, shaking and actively avoiding situations that they would previously have been happy to go to then it is time to discuss this with them and make an appointment to see a medical professional.

Suffering from anxiety is nothing to be ashamed of and you should speak to your partner about it as soon as you start seeing symptoms. As a couple you can discuss the stress that may be triggering the anxiety attacks. Do not fall into the blame game, it is very easy in times of financial stress to try and blame someone and that is usually the person nearest to you.

If you don't discuss the anxiety that is affecting your spouse then they will not get better and it will carry on building up to a point where it will come out as a full blown anxiety attack that could end up with them in an emergency ward. Ignoring the situation will not make it go away.

Financial problems can put you through some very scary times and they can be a major contributing factor to causing anxiety and panic attacks as well as other forms of mental illness. We advise people to go see a Dr or medical professional for their anxiety but it is also worth asking if the Dr knows of any volunteer groups that have financial experts who can offer you advice as well. Your marriage is worth saving, make the effort to get help for all your problems.
