I'm literally driving myself crazy because I am so much in love with my husband and I'm terrified of losing him to other women but he swears he isn't going any where and I'm the only one he loves and will ever want. I just can't get over this feeling I need it gone can someone give any advice

Hello, I used to feel the same way about my husband. I was obsessed with his ex girlfriend, afraid he would leave me for her. I was always scared he would find someone new, I was a total mess. I didn't find anything that helped my anxiety with that situation, one day I just realized that I was sick of driving myself crazy over it all and I just let it go. It was a big trust thing, it came to a point where I thought "If I can't trust my husband, then I shouldn't be with him", because a relationship is built on trust, so I started trusting him, then the anxiety started to die down. Also, my husband was getting very annoyed with my anxiety and trust issues, that it started to push him away, which was exactly what I didn't want! Ya know? That's when it really hit me, I didn't want to lose my husband because of my irrational anxiety, so I started trusting :) I hope you can find peace with your anxiety, I feel your pain, don't worry :) you'll figure things out.
