Playing hooky today--need good thoughts sent

Well, not exactly. DH couldn't sleep last night (happens sometimes on Sundays b/c he dreads going to work), but by morning he hadn't slept AT ALL. He was having a panic attack and needed me to calm him. I wish he would have woken me sooner!

So, we both took a mental health day today and I'm hoping that a new baby, a new house, a possible foreclosure, and other stresses don't totally destroy my darling's emotions :(

Thankfully, though, he mentioned "going to someone" for counseling. My hubby has been involved with the mental health field his entire life but avoided it himself!

 Some good energy sent this way would be appreciated!

    Ugh.  I totally know what nights like that are like.  I'm glad your H is going to see someone and I hope it helps him get some relief.  Panic attacks are miserable! 

    Enjoy your day together today ... good vibes sent!

    I'm pretty certain that anxiety, and its associated woes, comes straight from the pit of hell.  OMGosh, it's awful when the cycle gets rolling.  I'm so sorry your hubby (and, thus, you) is struggling with such frustrations. 

    Piles of good thoughts are headed your way.

    Enjoy your day together.  Sending lots of good thoughts.  Anxiety and all the crap that goes with it sucks.

    I'm a firm believer in mental health days. Get lots of rest and cuddles with your hubby!

    Hugs to you both! I'm glad he's considering counseling/therapy/etc, my Hubby saw someone for a bit and it really helped him out, and I'm currently looking for a therapist to deal with some anxiety issues.

    I had a bit of an anxiety attack this morning while eating my cereal & had no one to turn to but my mom's cat (I'm still in CA). Maybe there's something misaligned in the universe today?
