I just really don't want to be the one to ruin his life. :(

 

Don't be so down on yourself.

 

I have general anxiety disorder and I live a normal and full life. Do I have anxiety about normal everyday things? Yes, all the time. Does that make me some freak of nature that no one will ever love? No.

 

I totally get where you are coming from. I'm sure you will be able to do it (go away with him I mean), but probably not right now. I find with my issues I have to get really used to the idea first and then I have to start small. Large things like suddenly going away with a new person I've been seeing and all his friends would make me freak out.

 

I think you need to tell your boyfriend though the severity of your anxiety issues and give him examples of things that make you anxious. I would also confide in him that you are seeking treatment and feel confident you can do these things in the future (and you want to) but it's hard for you.

Maybe if you go that will allow you to face your fears and deal with your anxiety. Just a guess since I've never suffered with sever anxiety.

 

Hope all goes well
