Dear Ates:

You are welcome. I read your recent post with much interest. I didn’t understand your last paragraph, and I would like to reply to you after I understand it:

“I started to have anxiety 3-4 years ago“- do you mean that you did not suffer from anxiety as a child, as a teenager.. while your mother yelled at you and beat you and locked you in the  bathroom, etc.?

Can you tell me  your definition of the word anxiety?

“This one never passes, it is not like a panic attack either. It never seems to ease for days, weeks, months. It only eases when I cut contact“- this is the anxiety in the context of relationships, when you experience shortness of breath, right? What’s the difference between this anxiety and other kinds of anxiety, for you, past and present?
