Can anyone help/ relate.

I have mentioned this briefly in a previous post, I don't know if anyone can relate but my particular anxiety is making me very sad. I had the onset of depression/panic attacks 3 months ago and while I was in the midst of it the thought that i no longer loved my husband came into my head, becuase the thought frightened me it has now stuck and is constantly going through my head. Its terrible because the person i love the most and my rock is now the object of my anxiety. I keep trying to ignore it and get on in the hope that it will go away but because my mind/body has responded to it in a fearful way i'm worried that i'll have it forever. Can anyone relate to anything like this. I am feel completely out of touch with my life as i knew it. I just want to feel close to my husband again :weep: If i don't get over this i'm frightened i'll lose everything.

Im having the same problem. I keep thinking i don't love my fiance and we won't get married. We were so close and nothing has changed but i don't feel close to him anymore. I feel so out of touch with our life together. It was making me depressed and so scared that i would lose everything. I started on an antidepressant and anxiety medication last week. Hopefully that will help.
I found it helped to write down all the things i love about him to remind myself that its just anxiety and nothing more. I still have the feeling that Im slipping away from him though. And that scares me.

It's really common with depression to have an absence if feelings and with anxiety to have obsessional, intrusive thoughts about not loving your partner.
I nearly broke up with a partner once when very depressed, luckily they knew I was unwell. After I recovered all my loving feelings came back x
