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. As we enter into tough financial times in our present economy the pressures that we all face on a regular basis due to financial problems which occur in every family from time to time will increase. America is currently seeing the highest amount of foreclosures since records started being kept and this along with fears of job downsizing causes worry and stress to the best of us. If your spouse is already the type of person who suffers from some stress related problems then now is the time for you to be watching their behavior closer than ever before. There is nothing that can pile on the stress like a job loss and all the financial woes that follow. This could well be the tipping point when the moments of anxiety will turn into a full blown anxiety or panic attack. As the number of job losses and foreclosures rise so will the number of divorces and separations, but you do not have to become a statistic. How will you know if the financial pressures are pushing your partner towards an anxiety attack? Well you should be able to notice changes in the way they behave around you and also the way they behave in the lead up to social situations and during the social situations themselves. Blaming each other for the situation you are currently in will not help you at all. Blaming each other will just mean that you spend even longer arguing and fighting before you come around and start dealing with the situation as it is rather than how you wish it was. 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.
