I receive an email from a sweet girl who asked me how best she can support her girlfirend who has social and generalized anxiety disorder. She wants to know how she can be there for her friend. How she can help her during a panic attack and motivate her to get out of the house. She loves her friend dearly and wants her to be happy.

We should all be so blessed to have such a loving friend willing to stand by us through the challenges of an anxiety disorder.

I replied to her questions with some ideas of my own but thought it would be useful to ask other here to chime in on the discussion.

I will come again too to repeat some of my ideas if they don't come up for others to share.

Thanks.
