Am a regular but have name changed due to sensitive issue.
Dh is in his 40?s. Fit, attractive, but always has been hugely insecure.
Last night he asked me to make an GP appointment for him, we had a long chat about why and he really opened up. He is suffering from anxiety. He wakes up every morning feeling anxious, for no particular reason. He is fearing redundancy at work, there are no indications this will happen but he says he finds himself listening to conversations and phone calls, panicking if there is a meeting he is excluded from. His hear beats fast and he gets sweaty palms. He is sleeping lots, going to bed earlier each night. He is quite highly strung. We have no money worries but he refuses to check the balance online as it makes him feel anxious ? we are not OD and have no credit card or loans so again, no reason for him to feel like this.
He suffers from Vitiligo that he has had for as long as I have known him, in the past few months it has got considerably worse.
Then he told me he has been making himself sick after eating 
I know he used to do this as a teen, before he met me, but had no idea it had been going on as an adult. He was sketchy about how long, and how often and I didn?t want to push the subject or make him clam up. He feels very ashamed. He said he often eats too much when we have all gone to bed, then feels bloated so makes himself sick. He also exercises to obsession on a daily basis. 15 mile runs, 60 mile bike rides, and is always talking about fat content of food, calories, how fat other people are etc etc.
He has an appt to see the GP next week. He seems to think he can take a pill and it will all be better. I am looking at the bigger picture and thinking this is deeper than he thinks??..any advice/experience much appreciated.
Thanks.
