Hello, I am new to this group. I dont' think I have panic disorder, but I do believe I've developed quite a bit of anxiety over the past few years. My husband is actually the one who has been diagnosed with panic disorder. He is on meds, but isn't receiving psychotherapy at this time. We are separated right now due to his problems with anger, dishonesty, and finances. We married young before we got to know eachother and we have a daughter together. He attributes a lot of his problems to his panic disorder, making it seem like a lot of his actions are beyond his control. His panic attacks often manifest themselves as anger attacks with verbal abuse. I am not sure what to believe as I do not experience the kind of panic he does. I am looking out for my daughter and myself as a lot of his actions have been hurtful and irresponsible; However, I am feeling bad for blaming him, if his problems all stem from panic/chemical imbalance. If anyone could offer any advice or insight I would appreciate it. I don't have a lot of experience with this, however, I do have a lot of anxiety that runs in my family. I love this man, but living with him has not been easy. I often have the desire to end things and start over anew. Can panic disorder cause someone to do all the following: make bad decisions, be irrational, be constantly dishonest, and not make sense at times (be contradictory)? When we were together and even now that we are separated, I feel more like a Mother to him than a wife. Anyway, I've talked too much already. Thanks for reading.
