Thanks for the great advice! Saying that I shouldn't hold in my own frustrations makes me feel a little bit better, that hopefully I haven't been compounding the problem.
I would never tell anyone else his private business. But I think he knows that, otherwise he probably wouldn't tell me anything in the first place.
I do know he is already getting some professional help. As far as medication goes, I'm really not sure.
I'm really more concerned about my reactions, and how to be sensitive and helpful without coming off as overly so, if that makes any sense.
Thanks so much, and I'm happy to hear that you don't have as much anxiety as in the past
