Working with a panic attack trying to loose control. trying to calm down. There's nothing I can do to help my partner with something that happened. He need time to process, meaning, doesn't need me checking on him every 10 minutes. So I am giving him space. But I get so anxious. Ah," I wasn't enough help, they don't need me. I'm not important." And thats wrong. I need to calm down...

      I had a lot of success reading DARE by Barry McDonaugh (actually listening to the audio book but I own the book too), it helped me a lot with de escalating myself and the physical symptoms that caused me anxiety loops. I hope you are feeling better.

      You are definitely important. Everyone just deals with things in different ways, and doesn’t have to mean consistently. Humans are dynamic and its hard when both you and your partner are struggling

      Everything is okay, even if it doesn’t feel like it. I wish i had the energy to help more, but just know the feelings are temporary
