There is no specific diagnostic criteria for relationship anxiety, but it may be diagnosed as a subtype of anxiety disorder if the symptoms are persistent and interfere with daily life.
Treatment for relationship anxiety may include therapy, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy or couples therapy, to help individuals learn coping skills and improve communication with their partner. Medications, such as anti-anxiety medications, may also be prescribed in some cases.
