Anxiety Attacks???

I am a 23 year old mother and wife. I have noticed the last couple of years that my anxiety level has increased. For example: EVERY HOLIDAY when we are getting ready to go somewhere…like an easter egg hunt…I’m always super nice to my husband, asking him to please get ready so we won’t be late..and he is soooo lazy and slow and he will just lay in the bed after I’ve asked him to get ready like 10 times! While he is in the bed, I’m busy getting my son and myself ready. After he gets out of the bed, he goes and lays on the couch! Still in his boxers! Still needing to take a shower and get dressed! Ok…this is ending up to be a long story…so needless to say i get irritated and it pretty much ruins all of our holidays. Is it me? Should I get medication for my anxiety? Or would this make anyone else get irritated?

You taking meds won’t make a thoughtful person out of your husband. Next time, get the kids and yourself ready and leave on time with or without him. Tell him ahead of time that that is your plan and he can step up or not. He has no right to make all of you crazy. Sounds like he’s a control freak to me.
