writes: Is it possible for another person to cause anxiety? I have been in a very verbally, physically, and emotionally draining relationship for two years. I constantly feel like I am walking on eggshells, I could cry at the drop of a hat, and there really does not seem to be any joy in loving this man when every other day (on a good week) I am told what a liar or wh*re I am (I am neither, by the way). My heart has recently started to skip beats - I knew it at least FELT like it was skipping beats for the past 3 months or so but this evening, after returning from a grocery store trip and being yelled at in the store for spending too much money on a bbq that we are hosting (I pay, by the way), I kept my fingers on my pulse and actually felt it skipping beats every few minutes. It terrified me. I felt my heart skipping. Is this because of anxiety or depression? Will it all stop when he is out of my Life?

Hi. Anxiety can give you heart palpitations. Which is what you are experiencing. You might find you also have panic attacks. Horrible things! Ive had both at different times. If you were relatively "nerve free" until the "light of your life" turned into the person you are dealing with now,its a sure bet he is the cause. If you dont leave him now, you will slowly feel worse, until you reach the point where you simply feel too unwell to leave. So grab your coat and go before you reach that stage. You seriously dont need someone in your life whos abusive and making you feel ill x
