hi loyaltomysoil
this has nothing to do with you or his love for you. anxiety is an aweful thing and you have to realize that he trusted you greatly by revealing his anxiety to you. i suffer from massive anxiety so i can completely make sense of what is happening. when the relationship was new, he hid the anxiety to impress you and i am positive he was suffering every minute. after he got to know you he trusted that you would understand. he needed relief. he could not go on with the anxiety he was suffering making that drive and such. again, it has nothing to do with you. it is all in his head so to speak. if he wants to get over it bad enough he will pay to find counseling. there are workbooks for anxiety that are good. welcome to psych central. you will find we have several forums where you can post about your concerns and receive feedback from other members. you will get a lot of support here. again, welcome
